Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was driving when I noticed that the guy in front was on the phone. I pulled up next to him, pulled out my phone and I made a gesture that he needed to put his phone away. It was a cop. I got a ticket for driving while on my cell phone. FML
Today, I saw a car swerving in front of me on the freeway, so I whipped out my cell to report the DUI. As soon as it started ringing, I see police lights in my rear view and got slapped with a ticket for using a cell phone while driving. After explaining why, the officer said, "Nice try." FML
Today, I saw someone drive recklessly as if they were drunk. When I called the cops, I got pulled over by another cop for talking on my cell phone. FML
Today, I rear ended a cop while talking on my cell phone. FML
Today, I was driving home and got a phone call from my mom. She called to tell me that there was a cop at the bottom of our hill, and to be careful. I got a ticket for talking on my cell phone while driving. FML
Today, I was driving to work when a state trooper rammed into my car from behind, because he was on the cell phone and not paying attention. He gave me a ticket for "Failure to control speed to avoid a crash." FML
Today, I got pulled over for talking on my phone while driving. I'd lost my phone the day before. He didn’t believe me. So, I got a ticket for talking on a phone I can’t even find. FML
Today, a policeman pulled me over and proceeded to flirt with me. After I had rejected him, he gave me a ticket for "not paying attention to the road". FML
Today, I was in my car and a cute guy pulled up next to me. He looked at me and smiled, but in order to be cool, I pretended not to notice. I also pretended that I was listening to music and was completely absorbed in it, singing passionately. I wasn't even listening to music and my window was down. FML
Today, I got pulled over for speaking on my phone. I accepted the fine because I was too ashamed to tell the cute officer that I was actually trying to pop a huge pimple on my cheek. FML

Picking your nose would have looked cooler -- because it's not illegal.

YDI for trying to be cool when you're really an epic failure.

Even though I live in Kansas, I put my phone on Speaker when I talk while driving. I heard that the fine for using a phone while driving is only $20 on the first offense. There are no court costs, AFAIK.

they didn't make using a phone while driving illegal, they passed a "law" that says you have to use a handsfree device - big difference California is the best, try and say California is a fail with a straight face

Cell phones were cool in the early 90s when only high-powered businessmen could afford them.

Now if you really wanted to look cool, you should have lit a cigarette and blew the smoke toward him, while making your special "I'm farting" face.

Even worse, she looks like she doesn't mind putting others in danger AND looks busy, which could point to not available. I guess if someone is looking to stalk a jerk with no time she could get something out of it.

If you have to "try" look cool, don't even bother, you will probably fail. Thanks to fmylife.com I have learned this awesome fact. :D
