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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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
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, at a wild party, I cracked open a few glowsticks and drew patterns on my face and arms with the glowing liquid, then started dancing, hoping to impress some hotties. I was tearing it up until my skin started to burn, really bad. I ended up running out screaming and calling 911. FML
Today, I almost burned down my speakers. How, you ask? Well, some asshole at the party (I was the DJ) decided to trip me as I walked to the stage, causing me to knock my speakers into the pool. FML
Today, I tried doing a backflip off the diving board into our hotel's swimming pool. Instead, I flopped into the pool so hard it sounded like a cannonball, and now my stomach is bright red. My friends will probably bring this up for the rest of our holiday. FML
Today, I was sitting next to my friend as he blew out the candles on his birthday cake. Some asshole got the bright idea to shove his face in the cake, but they missed and pushed me in instead. The candles were still lit. My hair caught fire. FML
Today, I decided I would finally get up and weed our front yard. After a long couple of hours, I was hot and sweaty and decided to jump in the pool, with all my clothes on, just for fun. Right as I was in the air doing a cannon ball, my BlackBerry started to ring from my pocket... FML
Today, I had a dream about toasting with champagne. Whilst asleep, I extended my hand to toast, then brought my hand to my mouth to "drink the bubbly." I knocked over the glass of water I keep on my bedside table. My iPhone is now ruined, and in shock of my wet arm, I jerked backward headbutting my wife's face. FML
Today, I found out what my husband meant when he said he "accidentally installed an indoor pool" last night. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

YDI for bringing your phone to a pool party. But, it does suck it happened. :(

Who doesn't bring your phone to a pool party? Nobody intends on jumping in with it. FYL op
VasilisaUzhasnaj 29
I dunno, I sure as **** never do. You're at a pool, AND a party. Just enjoy the ******* event without being glued to your device.

You could buy a nice flatscreen TV with $400. That won't fall into the pool.

It hurts to laugh.....not!
leadman1989 16
That's not good reasoning. What if op already has flat screens? Secondly yeah a flat screen would be less likely to fall into a pool but there are other methods of destruction. You could buy more useful things with 400$ so why buy the tv in the first place?
Jaxx66 21
Yeah.... If you bring your phone to a pool party you did deserve to lose it. If your a guest, leave it in the car or house. If your the host, leave it in the house. I dont really see why you need it, your socialising just fine you don't need to interrupt people to say 'WAIT! I have a text!' *ignores party while I post on facebook about party*

I think the real fml is that op paid 400 dollars for a phone
Isoldael 27
@people saying "why bring a phone to a pool party" - OP said they were hosting the party. It's nice if people can reach the host if they wanna cancel / can't find the way / whatever reason.

I think I'm going to have to agree with 40 and 153- there plenty of reasons for OP to have her cell phone on her, yes even if she's hosting a pool party. She could've had it on her so that she could be easily reached by party guests that haven't arrived yet as 153 suggested, or perhaps she just feels more comfortable knowing that if she has it if she needs it. Also just because she had it on her, it doesn't mean she was constantly texting or checking her phone.

OH NO!!! Is the pool OK?

Try some rice in the battery. Works well for absorbing water. Saved me a few times.

11, I have a good feeling that you're gonna have a thumbs up storm in your near future. As for OP, I hope it was an iPhone. Otherwise, I wouldn't feel too bad. ;)

Haha, nice. Yesterday evening, I was going through boxes of stuff from years ago when I found a 2002 Harry Potter movie calendar, which got me imitating lines from the first movie (along with other movies involving British accents), eventually influencing this comment. That you read this in the intended fashion when there was no indication present is a nice little coincidence.

Emma Watson is hot. I know, it's kinda irrelevant and obvious but I just had to say it. Thumb up/down all you want.

Cell phones are stupid anyways they're a big waste of money
Jaxx66 21
Hey now. Don't hate on cell phones. They are what makes this site go vroom. :)
VasilisaUzhasnaj 29
More like what makes the modern world go 'vroom.' It is near impossible in this fast-paced technological society for people to survive without cell phones. I don't mean kids and teenagers, but anyone who is old enough to work. One simply cannot try to stick to the 'old ways' now, it's very unwise. Even the shittiest free cell phone will do.
sxe_beast 11
I like how I'm a "trending try-hard" because I have an iPhone. Oh and like windows Android is made by many different brands. Like HTC. And HTC makes epic phones.

Ever think it may be a 32gb iPhone? It's kind of an iPod also.... Enjoy your nokia.

Why does everyone add price tags on FMLs? My phone was free on contract (unlocked too). Insure it if you're gonna pay that much and don't have an adequate spare.

Oh come on it's not like u spent your $400 to buy it. We all know u used his money so he is the one that loses out lol.
angeluscado 15
Wow, really? Just because she's a woman you naturally assume she didn't pay for something herself? You're an ass.

shit, calm the **** down it was a joke, no underlying tones or implications, he just wanted to make someone laugh
thrashdu2002 5
it prolly was his money. and that bitch probably used the free upgrade for the phone so it didnt cost shit. and who takes there cell phone to a pool party.
thrashdu2002 5
ur a dumb feminist ****
angeluscado 15
I'm probably being too damn sensitive. It just bothers me when people (not just men, but people in general) naturally assume that because a woman has expensive things, a man bought them for her.
aFatFuck 0
Yeah it's stupid to assume. Sadly this is the case a lot :/ Also I'm not saying the man makes more money just that women expect men to still buy things for them even when they have a job
VasilisaUzhasnaj 29
No.

I make my own money. I take pride in knowing I don't rely on others. I've helped support my family since I was 15, & until I win the lottery, I'll keep doing that.
