Today, my drunk uncle threw my brand new iPhone 3GS into my pool, ruining it completely. When I asked him to pay for the 600 dollar replacement cost, he said he wasn't responsible for his drunken actions. All of my family members are on his side. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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 dad borrowed my new iPad to amuse him while he was in the shower without my knowledge. The iPad is now completely ruined, and my dad is refusing to buy me a new one. He says, "How was I to know that it wasn't waterproof?" FML
Today, my brother got mad at me for breaking the screen on his phone. He'd already dropped it so many times that the whole screen was cracked to the point that you couldn't see anything on it, but for some reason, I am fully responsible for its destruction because I accidentally delivered the finishing blow. FML
Today, my boyfriend threw me into his pool. I had my phone and iPod in my pockets. FML
Today, my drunk sister came in my room at 2 in the morning, sat on the side of my bed, fell off, knocked over my glass of water, which ruined my new phone, then got angry at me for getting angry with her. She then slammed my door, which made all the photo frames smash to the ground. FML
Today, I bought lunch for my grandparents, aunts, and uncles. My uncle apparently felt uncomfortable at the restaurant, because he got up and flipped the table over before leaving. The bill tripled because of the broken glass, and my uncle called me up later for a ride. FML
Today, I got home from a week-long vacation with my friend's family. When I got back home, I found the garage door had been completely demolished. My uncontrollably drunk dad blamed me. I don't even drive. FML
Today, after saving up for weeks, I bought myself an iPad. Because mine is better than the one my parents bought my ten-year-old brother, he got pissed and threw it into our pool. I'm now grounded for getting angry and calling him a bastard in the aftermath. 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, my uncle stole my cousin's phone to take a picture of me. He then sent said picture to my cousin's boyfriend, saying that she'd been cheating on him with me for over a year. He's been cheated on before and is hysterical. My uncle then had the nerve to act all defensive when my cousin and I exploded at him. FML

Get drunk and drive his car into the lake. Problem solved, after all you can't take responsibility for your drunken actions.

Get drunk and steal $600 from him. After all, you can't be responsible for your drunken actions.

Take it to small claims court, legal precedence says he is responsible.

$600 -- you got ripped off! My iPhone 3gs was only $300 for the 32g.

Wait for him to get drunk again, then casually suggest he go drive down to the grocery store and pick up some chips or something, then wait for him to try and pull that shit on the cops. Also, all of you bitching about $600 cost, it doesn't cost that much if you upgrade with a 2 year contract, its only $200, but probably $600 without one.

Your uncle is dead wrong in indicating that he isn't responsible for his drunk actions. If he were driving a car, hit a person and killed them while under the influence of alcohol, the law in all countries around the world would definitely say that he is responsible for his actions. Take him to small claims court. You will definitely win your case against him. Try recouping the money from him though, that's a different matter.

A court would disagree that he's not responsible for his drunken actions. Take him to small claims.

to all the people saying the iPhone shouldn't cost $600... maybe he got a $200 phone and got $400 worth of apps?

Get drunk and trash something of his.
