Today, I was installing the official 3.0 firmware update for my iPhone. Apple's authentication servers crashed. I now own an iBrick. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I bought my first iPhone. Today, I broke my first iPhone. FML
Today, I bought an otter box. While setting up my iPhone, I dropped it and it is now shattered. FML
Today, at the Apple Store, the crew, security, manager, technician, and fellow customers alike, never bothered covering up to laugh at me when I went there to have my phone fixed. Someone somehow hacked my iPhone, and when I use the Face ID, it makes a bloodcurdling scream of fear in full volume, then shuts down. FML
Today, I went to the Apple store to try and figure out what's going on with my iPhone. After an hour of speaking to three different geniuses and waiting around, their solution was to "Google it." FML
Today, my parents gave me an iPhone. They then checked my grades online, and promptly took it away. FML
Today, my iPhone got back from being fixed. When I opened the box there was a note attached to my phone that said, "All you had to do was turn it on." FML
Today, my history teacher confiscated my iPhone. She dropped it on the way back to her desk, and I now have a shattered iPhone screen to fix. 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, I gave my little brother my iPhone so he could play a game. I soon forgot about it, and when I got it back two hours later, there was pudding and a couple of big cracks in it. FML
Today, my new iPhone was stolen from my school locker. After canceling my service, sobbing, having my mom yell at the secretary for their lack of security and finally agreeing to change to a private school, I found it in the corner of my locker. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

put your iphone into DFU mode, then boot it with 1clickboot.

Too bad you're an idiot and that's not how the installation process works. 1. It downloads the software FIRST. 2. It extracts it to upload it to the iPhone. 3. The iPhone resets and uploads the information FROM THE COMPUTER. Not the server. What a TOOL.

How the **** did this FML get accepted??? You're a dumbass who doesn't know how to use DFU mode or even recover. There's no such thing as a bricked iPhone, unless the hardware has been physically damaged. Stop being an idiot and fix it. YDI.

Maybe he's planning on selling his iPod touch after he gets his iPhone. That's what I almost did, but I ended up getting the 2G iPod touch.

I bet you're the kind of person who gets a boner whenever Steve Jobs makes an appearance. I bet you've never used Vista. It's not the best OS in the world but it's great as long as you're not a total dumbass. Why someone would pay $1000+ for entry level hardware specs I will never know.

It's terribly tacky to assume that a person dislikes a Mac because they're "too poor to afford one." It makes you sound like a complete fool seeing as there can be many reasons why a person dislikes an Apple product. I've always been a fan of Windows and I still am. Yes, it has its flaws, as does a Mac. I have a PC desktop and a MacBook and I love them both. I think when you own a PC you learn so much about computers, more than you might learn when you start off owning a Mac because Macs are incredibly simple and let me just say, some people like a challenge. I'm glad I own a PC desktop because it has different features. I never thought I'd buy a MacBook but since I'm starting college I decided I needed something simple with fun programs and that's what a MacBook is to me. Some people don't want to spend $1,200 and more for a laptop. So assuming that people hates Macs because they're poor makes you look ignorant.

Pretentious. Actually, I'm pretty stoked that I'm about to get a $600 PC laptop that will do things that Mac can never do... Like e-mail my professor a document.

Jealous? Hardly. The iPhone does nothing other multi-media phones didn't do years in advance of it. It's an overpriced POS, and the tools that buy it have bought into undeserved hype. Apple has become "hip" and therefore it sells. It wouldn't sell on it's own merits at the prices Assle has the nerve to sell them at.
