Today, I was at a pool party with some friends. They grabbed and lifted me in the air, about to throw me in the pool. My iPhone was in my pocket, so I screamed "MY PHONE!" They paused so I could gently throw it onto a deck chair. It bounced, hit the concrete, and cracked its screen. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend threw me into his pool. I had my phone and iPod in my pockets. FML
Today, I was being pulled into a pool by my girlfriend. To avoid ruining my phone, I tossed it into one of the chairs behind me. I missed and it landed into the hot tub behind it. FML
Today, I threw my brand new iPhone 4 in the air whilst laying on my bed. It came down, went through my fingers, landed on my balls, then broke on the concrete floor. FML
Today, to keep my phone safe while I went on some rides, I took it out of my pocket so I could put it in my bag. Just as I pulled it out, a woman ran into me, knocking my phone to the ground and breaking the screen. FML
Today, I used a prank app, where you shake the cell, and it makes the screen looks cracked. I ended up losing my grip on the phone. It went flying, and it is now cracked for real. FML
Today, I was hosting a pool party, when my husband and his friends got the bright idea of lighting one of the party balloons on fire. Needless to say, it immediately exploded. In shock, he jumped back straight into me, sending me and my $400 cell phone splashing into the pool. FML
Today, I was at the pool with two boys I babysit. The eldest wouldn't get out of the pool so I pretended to call his dad. He then ran out of the pool, pushed me down, grabbed my phone, chucked it into the pool and then ran back into the pool. FML
Today, after calling the insurance plan for my new iPhone a "huge waste of money", I promptly dropped it in the store while trying to put it into my pocket, cracking the screen. FML
Today, while trying to find my phone in the depths of the sheets on my bed, I gave my comforter a huge shake. A second later, I heard a crash. My phone had miraculously flown straight into the glass of water on my nightstand. Found it. FML
Today, I got home and threw my phone onto my bed as usual. This time it bounced out the window. FML

Sounds like a crazy party. Were the cops called?

You couldn't ask to be put down first? So you could walk to the chair?

I'd take the cracked screen over water damage!

Go to the Apple Store and find new friends -- you know, members of our cult who have the proper reverence for the holy wares made by the beloved Mother Ship.

I'd rather my screen be cracked than ruined due to water damage, like my iPhone 4 was on the 3rd day I owned it.

At least iPhones are pretty tough to kill. Mine has had a cracked screen for nearly 2 years and works fine. Consider it a way to identify your phone.

Yeah, my friend has a pretty bad crack on his screen. Still works, always knows it's his.

Ditto, my buddy's screen literally looks shattered and it works just fine.

*Ditto used TRANSFORM.* Ditto transformed into . . . Magikarp. Magikarp used SPLASH. It didn't do anything. Magikarp FAINTED from the next attack.

At least it didn't fall into the water. While water damage is unrepairable, a cracked screen can be fixed.
