Today, I was laughing at a story of a girl who had dropped her cellphone in a hottub and ruined it. As I was feeling pretty good about myself, I then realized that my cellphone was in the pocket of a sweater that I had just thrown in the washer 20 minutes prior. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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 found my iPhone. Too bad it was when I was getting my clothes out of the washer. FML
Today, I accidentally dropped my phone in the toilet. I automatically dove my hand in and ran out of the stall with it. As I dried it, some girls were laughing. I assumed that they were laughing because my phone fell in the toilet. Then I noticed my pants were still down. FML
Today, I finally found my cellphone when I heard WHACKWHACKWHACK inside the washing machine. FML
Today, I was in my hot tub with my brand new phone. I set it down and when I grabbed my towel I knocked it into the water. I quickly snatched it up and dried it off with the towel, and surprisingly only one button stopped working. It was the unlock button, so now I have a perfectly good phone that I can't use. FML
Today, I threw all my clothes into the washer, including my favorite red hoodie. Apparently, I forgot a Kleenex in one of the pockets. I now own a wardrobe of pink, soggy tissue confetti-covered gunk. FML
Today, I started some laundry late at night. Once my clothes were in the washer for about a half hour, I got bored and I decided I would listen to my iPod. After looking for it for another 15 minutes, I remembered where I'd left it; in my jacket... which is now nice and clean. FML
Today, I did laundry for the first time in weeks. Feeling productive, I dumped everything in, including what I thought was my pile of towels. Turns out, I washed (and shrunk) my roommate’s $200 wool sweater. She found out when I proudly showed her how “clean” everything looked. FML
Today, I put my phone in the dishwasher by accident. I'd left it on the kitchen counter with a bunch of dirty stuff and, distracted, loaded it in with the plates. I only realized it when the dishwasher started making weird noises. My phone was soaked and blinking with bubbles inside. It didn’t survive. 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You really should check all pockets before doing laundry.

I did the same thing with a cell phone about 6 or 7 years ago. It was a Nokia. I reached in and got it. Dried it off and opened it up as much as possible. If you don't try to turn it on and allow it to dry a few days likely it'll work again. The POS phone I have now wouldn't make it...What do I have an iCrap, I mean phone.

if you stick it in a bag of uncooked rice for a few days it should suck a lot of the water out of it....I did that when my little brother threw my phone in the toilet and now it's as good as new :)

Ha! That's why you always check your pockets before you put clothes in the wash.

I was laughing at all of the actual comments when I realized that this FML is retarded, so I killed myself in protest to shitty comments. Perdix, Toxi, and Mercy should come with me.

You.....want us to die? Hmm. I have a better idea. Instead of protest, we can either try to fix it ourselves, or we can try to persuade everyone to stop being lame. If we're going with the latter option, I hope you have boobs.
