Today, I was having a beautiful lucid dream when a telemarketer called at 5AM, waking me up. I silenced my phone and went back to sleep, and was somehow able to resume my lucid dream. Then my phone vibrated me awake. It was the same telemarketer, this time calling at 7AM. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I decided to sleep in since I didn't really have anything I had to do. I was woken up at 10:30AM thanks to a spam telemarketer. I turned my phone off and went back to sleep, hoping to wake up around noon. I woke up at 1:30PM. FML
Today, I was woken up at 2 in the morning by my phone ringing. As I groggily reached for it I managed to knock my fan onto my head, leaving a grate-shaped bruise. The best part? My phone wasn't ringing, I dreamed myself awake. FML
Today, the phone kept ringing so I picked it up and answered. When there was no response, it took a minute to realize that I was still in bed and talking to my hand. FML
Today, I crawled into bed at 2 in the morning. At 6 am, the telephone rang, waking me up. It was a wrong number. FML
Today, I received a prank phone call that woke me up. I actually kept them on the line because they were the first person to call me in weeks. FML
Today, I was taking phone calls. In my dreams. That's just how horrible my job is. FML
Today, I got woken up by a text from an unknown number at 3 am saying, "haha I found your number." I ignored it and tried to go back to sleep. After hours of trying to fall asleep, my drowsiness was disturbed by another text from the same person saying, "Sorry, wrong number." FML
Today, a telemarketer called my house phone and asked for my grandpa. We were in the middle of having his wake. FML
Today, I was having trouble sleeping, and I was almost asleep when I got a call from one of those spam places. They left a voicemail, which I made the mistake of listening to. The voice was so slowed down, it was very creepy, especially late at night. I don't think I'll be sleeping at all tonight. FML
Today, I was working a phone call in a call center when I suddenly began to faint while at it. It turned out to be a bad dream I'd woken up from, because it's been three months since I've worked at that call center. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

They'll still keep calling. You really can't keep them away.

At first , I thought you were having a lucid dream about talking to a telemarketer at 5am. Seemed like a rather odd thing to pick out of all the possible things to lucid dream about.

Well, next time just don't wake up for a phone call. Easy.

If they are real telemarketers, they have just broken the law. They aren’t allowed to call between certain hours, and you could report them or sue them for doing that. Normally I wouldn’t suggest suing, but dammit lucid dreams are rare and you just ruined my dream of Taylor Swift writing a song about me!

I seriously doubt they are real telemarketers. They generally aren't stupid enough to think someone would want to buy something at 5am. Only a scammer calls at those hours.

Yeah look..think there are bigger problems in the world then your phone ringing.

Aren't all the problems in the world bigger than most of the FMLs ? Point is just to relax reading others misadventures. You should try sometimes...

That's why I have no landlines in my room and my cell is set to only let my alarm sound when I'm sleeping.
