Today, I forgot my phone on the roof of my car. I took a 30 minute drive from my friend's city to my city. I got on to my driveway, surprised to see my phone still there. Thinking I'm really lucky, I pick up my phone. Then, I trip over a pebble, cracking my phone in the process. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, it wasn't until I heard something fly off the roof of my car and hit the trunk, then asphalt, that I remembered where I left my phone while unlocking the car door. FML
Today, I left my phone on the roof of my car after pumping gas. I drove off, and it wasn't until I heard a thud that I realized what had happened. Now my phone has a gash in the screen, and it's receiving angry texts from my girlfriend that I can't answer. FML
Today, while driving, I realized I had left my phone on top of my car when I was getting in. Panicking, I drove back to look for it. I found it in the middle of the street, still intact. Yay! When I went back to my car, I noticed I had locked my door, and the keys were in the ignition. FML
Today, I was driving back home when I saw a yellow object flying off my roof of my car through the side mirrors. I thought nothing of it, then I noticed that I didn't have my phone with me. That's when I realized that the "flying yellow object" was my phone. FML
Today, I was finishing up at the gym and packed my bag to come home. I set my phone on top of it for a second as I knelt down to tie my shoes. Less than a minute later, I grabbed my bag to walk out, forgetting that it was on top. It tumbled to the ground and smashed. Guess I need a new phone. FML
Today, I put my phone on top the car while putting my daughter in her car seat. Told myself not to forget it. Then I drove away, and it flew off the top of the car on the freeway. It got ran over. FML
Today, I dropped my phone in the parking lot and it landed next to a car tire. As I reached to pick it up, the car backed up and ran over my phone and my hand. Hello, emergency room! FML
Today, I was driving down a highway during rush-hour. I heard my phone ring and couldn't find it. I bent down to feel around for it and got in an accident and totaled my car. The ringing? A commercial on the radio. Where was my phone? On my dresser at home. FML
Today, my smartphone fell out of my cargo shorts pocket onto the floor of my friend's car. I didn't even notice until he drove me home, where I noticed that the pocket was empty. FML
Today, I helped friends move home, and since we couldn't all fit in their car I took the bus. While waiting, my new phone slipped and crashed on the floor. It now has a cracked screen right between my two overpriced phone protectors. FML

Sounds lucky, smells lucky, tastes lucky, BAM the luck is gone.

I've done this before, but it fell into a crack on my truck... It was the most terrifying thing ever. At least you didn't lose it though, right? It's costs less to replace a screen than the whole phone.

Well, I know it's bad but I guess it's good that you have it and didn't lose it over the 30 minute drive!

That really sucks, but at least when you were driving it didn't fall off and you couldn't find it.

Hi guys! I'm the OP of this story. I completely forgot to sign in for this FML. I am very sorry for this. I would like to start by saying that I was visiting my friends since they just remodeled their house. They live about 30 minutes away in more urban part of Florida. When I was leaving I must of left my phone on my roof when I was getting my keys out of my pants pocket. The funny thing is that the drive from my city to theirs involves getting on the highway (really glad I have a very grippy case). I got home and out of my car and saw my phone on my roof and was shocked. I turned on my phone and I saw that my friend had called me during the drive. I called back and they told me that they wanted to tell me that my phone was on my car because I was too far away for them to tell me. As I was talking, I tripped over a pebble, and since I have a gravel driveway I couldn't stop myself. The crack isn't too bad so I guess I have some luck left. P.S. Sorry for this essay of a response :)

Is it so wrong of me to favorite this, as I'm laughing, because this made my night even better?

Not at all :)

Similar thing happened to my brother. But it was his tablet and it fell off down the road from his house just before he got there

My phone would stay because it has a magnet on the back. It's part of the Steelie system by Niteize. It's really cool.
