tell her it wasnt funny and then punch her in the stomach!
YDI for buying a $400 glass phone and not having enough sense to buy a case for it.
Ooh, that sucks
Refund?
xD
your waisting money if your phone shatters just by being dropped once, i have a 350 dollar phone and i drop it often and it works fine
Yeah Ive never heard of a phone that expensive shattering from a short drop. Ive had friends drop iPhones and Blackberrys and at most they ended up with a cracked screen (which is usually an easy fix).
Next time at least get a protective case ;)
Maybe it wasn't a short drop. Or it could have just landed on something sharp? Or on the edge? Who knows.
You're right, a couple bucks on a case would have saved you a whole lot of money in the long run, but hey, its your money.
A phone this expensive shouldn't break because of a short fall (I assume it fell out of the pocket or hand)...They either ripped you off or it was bad luck.
That woman is hilarious!
Clearly, you don't have friends with the iPhone. All you need to do to break that phone is drop it from no more than 3 feet and you've got a front row seat to the anatomy of modern day electronics
Actually, #146, the iPhone isn't as hard to break as you seem to think. I'm an iPhone owner and I drop my phone almost daily. Once I dropped my phone on asphalt while walking to my car after class and cracked the screen. I easily replaced the screen myself since it wasn't covered under warranty. I've dropped it puddles of water twice, a glass of iced tea once and glass of soda once. I'm sure I've done other stuff to it too. Guess what? It still works as well as it did the day I got it. And I don't use a case. I don't intend on using one, either. Some day I'll do something to my phone that'll kill it completely and I'll just use that as an excuse to get the new iPhone that I really want.
Also, I must add, that I have numerous friends with the iPhone as well. A couple of them have managed to crack the screen, but aside from that their phones are fine too.
Well, so if you are a businessman traveling every day, you buy
a navigation system for $200
a Netbook/Notebook for at least $200 for checking mails
a UMTS-Stick for at least $50 for getting online
an organiser for getting your calender managed for at least $100
If you want to play some 3D-games, you buy a PSP for at least $150
A MP3-Player with some GB of memory for $50
Maybe something to watch videos while driving - >$100
Oh, maybe also something that warns you about radar traps - don't know, at least $50?
Oh, and yes, a mobile phone to call your friends using your Bluetooth headset - $40 ;)
Just some points why buying a phone for $400 could be a good move ;)
how the fuck do you drop your iphone into a glass of soda?
exactly!! I have a blackberry storm, and I have dropped it a few times... but unlike the op i have a protective case for it.... I have broken the case already, but i bought a new one... the phones still in perfect shape :)
I'm with you #174...$400 on a phone! WTF Who are you calling, MARS? URANUS!? My cheapie phone has taken falls, baths, beatings, bitings and still works good! Get over it.
bitings? uhmm :
#179 - On 11/05/2009 at 4:33pm by suckishfather
my 1 year old used it as a teething toy
awesome! I gotta use that one
Pat this woman on the back for making a joke! Then feel free to punch her in the face.
you and anyone else saying to hit her is a douche.
fuck off and die.
her comment was funny, albeit cheesy and lame, but i dont see what exactly you expected from her. its not like she can magically fix your glass phone. damn fml retards.
Meh, FML ate my comment, but it'll probably pop up later.
Organisedchaos, please learn to take a joke. Even if the joke isn't as hilarious as the one from the FML, there's really no need to resort to insults and name-calling. It just makes you look silly.
#63, telling people to fuck off and die definitely makes you look rather like a douche. just sayin.
Why is it that so many people in today's society use the word retard? Really, what makes it acceptable? #63, I understand where you are coming from, but do you really need to throw that word out there? It's not funny, and it doesn't make you look like the big-bad guy on this website, it just makes you purely rude.
@72, perhaps this one was, but surely they cant all be telling the same crap joke...and it was addressing everyone who made such ridiculous statements. this one was just closest to the top. by the way, it fails as a joke.
@82 if you say so.
@89, but thats exactly what i want to be, rude. why would i want to appear to be the big bad guy? thats fucking RETARDED. oh and i realise its not funny, i dunno maybe you subscribe to this "hit her" is a hilarious "joke" group, but to me that and the word 'retard' are humour free.
Well, sir, that's your opinion and you're entitled to it. I don't agree with it and you don't agree with my joke, so I suppose we're even. We have different senses of humor, which is just a part of life. :] It's just a shame you told me to "fuck off and die" though; you lost a lot of credibility there. I'm tempted to insult your intelligence the same way you insulted mine, but that would be a rude, immature thing to do.
I'm not entirely sure why my joke offended you so much though. This already happened. It's not like OP is going to read through the comments, see mine, and say, "What a great idea! I'll find this woman and clock her right in the face!" If I was seriously trying to encourage violence against cheesy joke-makers, I wouldn't do it on Fmylife.com. Just throwing that out there.
Sorry, did you miss where I stated that I knew where you were coming from #137? I know that abuse is not a matter to joke around with, which is why I do not support it, and I also do not support the use of the word retard. There are much more acceptable words that you could use to come across as rude. But retard is so unbelievably offensive. In my mind, using the word retard is just a bad as using the words homo, gay, fag, etc. It is just an absolutely horrible thing to say or call someone. So please, just shut the hell up.
i regularly use the words homo gay fag and any other word i deem appropriate at the time. you whinging about it isnt going to change that.
Too many negative votes, comment buried. Show the comment.
She failed at trying to make a witty remark. and I'm sorry about your phone!
That's not a fail, that's funny!
Too many negative votes, comment buried. Show the comment.
Hell yeah... That shit was not funny.. you shoulda fucked her up.... and then ran..
She also laughed at her own joke when no one else did. So, yeah, she deserved pain.
same shit diff day, go get a new one booo whooo.
baby, u would come on fmylife.com sigh
That's sad... not the emotional way.. go and buy a cheepass Nokia phone.. fell out of my pocket 1 time and fell 2 stories before it hit some pottery (the clay bottom of indoor plant things) and went onto the floor... it worked fine.
she is really, really mean (though i did lol at this one) I probably would have just said "ouch, hope it wasn't too expensive" and walked away
Rum up to her steall her phone smash it on the floor and say the same thing
HAHAHHAH that lady was awesome.
Hate to say it, but YDI for being pretentious and buying such an expensive phone.
Fuck AT&T!
I'll bet they send out poltergeists, demons and fairies to knock your phone out of your hand to make you buy a new one, with "insurance."
Everyone says they have the most dropped calls.
hahahhaha!!!!! ughhhh, its soo true!! sighh... i, an ex-verizon customer, switched to at&t just for the new iphone and the service sucks ass!! im in love with my iphone! what to do? sighhh.... :/
Just jailbreak it and you can use it on Verizon's network if you switch. I actually prefer AT&T over Verizon and T-Mobile. Verizon treats you like a dirty whore, then pimp slaps you and takes your money. They charge you for the most random of things.
jail break it? does that mean break my contract? :D i must sound pretty naive! ohhhh ok, despite losing money on this, thats an idea. i will have to look into it. hmm, thanks! :) yeah, i heard about the charges too but i never had that happen to me. all i know is, i never had any problems before and could talk in places no other ppl could :) miss that
ugh i know what you mean i have tmobile right now and the service sucks
and the phones are really expensive and they break so easily
like i dropped my phone three feet above the ground cuz it fell out of my hands (im really short)
#177 - On 11/05/2009 at 3:29pm by xxlostinspacexx
1. Unless you have a mobile made of glass, it's unlikely to "shatter" unless you drop it from more than one story.
2. YDI for not buying a protective cover.
Not real, phones can't shatter like that, even if it's a phone made of thin plastic that can't happen! It may get dents and not work and stuff but it CANNOT shatter into millions of pieces!
#19 - On 11/04/2009 at 7:51pm by i_stay_anonymous
"Looks like somebody"...(puts on sunglasses) "has a dropped call." YEAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!
That was actually a clever one-liner. Sorry about your phone, but the lady's pretty badass.
and then "Bad to the Bone" played as the lady walked away
You win the internet. Good music taste ftw.
Wow a CSI Miami reference. David Caruso rules.
I read it in Horatio's voice for a second. Makes the FML sound way funnier.
Christ i_stay_anonymous, of course it can't shatter into a million pieces, it's just a manner of speech. Still, a $400 dollar phone that breaks with a single fall is an epic steal. -.-
Then you push her in front of a speeding truck and yell, "Now that's what you call roadkill.."
guffaw gaffaw
and then the cops show up and say "Now that's what you call freeze or burn.."
ohhooohaha-ha
and then..
I can't believe I laughed at that!!!! haha
oh and sucks about your phone! I've droped mine TONS of times and it never shattered! *it's pretty expensive too....*
I woulda turned around and given her a high five lol.
I have a $200 phone that fell down a staircase made of cement and suffered only a few scratches. Unless you have a phone made of thin sheets of glass, I find this story dubious.
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!
That was pretty good.
FYL about your cellphone.
My cell phone was free with my plan and it doesn't shatter when I drop it. You fail at life.
#34 - On 11/04/2009 at 8:15pm by Sock
I have to admit that joke is funny but still, FYL.
I drop my cellphone all the time, and it breaks into pieces. But I just pop the pieces back together (keypad, battery and battery cover) and it's good as new. Are you sure it's BROKEN, and not just fallen apart? Did you even try to put it back together?
Cell phones are battle-tested. They should be able to withstand being dropped a few times. YDI for having a glass phone.
BTW was that woman hot? She sure sounds sassy enough.
dang sucks about the phone but i gotta that was a really clever comment. one badass lady right thurrr
#41 - On 11/04/2009 at 8:28pm by kayy23
Wow. That sounds like something I would say... Your fault for not protecting your phone if it was that fragile. Get a Nokia brick. They're INDESTRUCTIBLE.
Simple - don't drop your phone next time. YDI
yeah sometimes thats not that easy.. phones fall, but they dont SHATTER... all she needs is a protective case... only way it can shatter is if a sledge hammer or a crane went through her phone... I drop mine ALL the time, and it doesnt have a scratch or dent, but than again i have a protective case :D
hahahaha!!! i'm sorry but that's funny....what the lady said was anyways...hope you had insurance...
YDI for spending 400 dollars on a phone.
@45, you're just jealous because you can't afford a 400 dollar phone.
deserved. $400 for a phone that shatters... sad.
could have bought 3 Nokia's and tossed them against the walls to test the strongest.
Do you have a glass phone or something?
See, now that's just good humor.
400 dollars on a phone? Man that's crazy. Talk about a waste. You could have bought 400 dollars worth of toilet paper and saved yourself years of butt wiping.
now THAT is funny!
#49 - On 11/04/2009 at 8:53pm by altatude13
i thought it was funny (:
lol beanie, i bet i could find a way to destroy it >:D
I just laughed out loud really hard.
Sorry.
lol omg you have to admit that was pretty funny. sorry about the fone it it makes you feel anybetter my expensive phone fell out of my pocket and into the mall toliet and the automatic flusher ate it...sad then funny now =^)
what was your phone made of glass? phones dont shatter when they fall 3 ft.
yea cuz phones can magically shatter into millions of pieces
you gotta admit that was funny as he'll!
Ugh, people that laugh at their own jokes... so lame!
iPhone screens crack and shatter too easily. i've broken two but I still can't live without my iPhone.
#62 - On 11/04/2009 at 9:23pm by ashleynonymous
I wish her dentures would have fell out so you could have said now thats what u call not enough SeaBond!
perfect joke for the perfect moment! lol!!
LMAO XD hehe, did she take it?
Wow, you were ripped off. That phone should be just as durable as a cheap one; in fact, it should be more so. Unless you dropped that thing from the 40th floor balcony, it should be just fine (with maybe a few scratches or dents).
Go. Get your money back.
If you bought the phone without a warranty, YDI. How does such an expensive cell phone break so easily? I have an iPhone that's dropped to the floor more than once and it doesn't have a scratch. Also, saying "floor" implies someplace indoors; and a woman passing by saw you drop your cell phone? Ha!
So a woman broke into your house and watched you drop your $400 cell phone which shattered into a million pieces? Get your story straight!
there are public places that are indoors! (i.e. the mall, restaurants, the grocery store)
LOL the csi remark LOL dude, u made my night

FYL, for both dropping your expensive phone and having to listen to that awful line
Seconded. +100 internets to this person.
was it the stupid touch pro 2? if so, ydi.
lmao
That was actually really funny
Good for her
#79 - On 11/04/2009 at 10:06pm by Bran_Dizzle_
Now I've never had a four hundred dollar phone but I've dropped several of my phones and they have never ever shattered, maybe a chip or a scratch at most.
#80 - On 11/04/2009 at 10:06pm by jane99
LOL!!! Funniest story I've heard all day! :D
#84 - On 11/04/2009 at 10:11pm by rockyroad94
wth, was your phone also made of sugar glass?
or did you "drop" it wink wink, nudge nudge
It sucks your phone is toast, but at least you brightened that lady's day :)
A woman after my own heart.
lol that was so 'pun'ny. :D
Is it just me, or is there not a single person who can make a good joke anymore?
V_V
learn how to take a joke...geez
I would have probably said the same thing, laughed at you and my own joke.
I'm going to go ahead and say... Fake
AHAHAHAHA!! I would laugh too! You know why? Because she said something FUNNY! AND having SUCH an expensive phone, I would have a solid warranty on it and get a new one! So YDI for spending that kind of money on a phone without a warranty.
Please explain how you figured from this FML that this person doesn't have a warranty on their phone.
Even if they did have warranty and even though the joke the woman made was funny, breaking a phone still sucks because most of the time you have to wait to get a new phone shipped to you after you file a claim. Hell, unless the phone breaking was a manufacturing defect, something like this wouldn't be covered under warranty so this person might be out of a phone until they can buy a new one. Also, you lose all the texts, photos, videos and such that were on the old phone.
i have to say it's fake,
because no phone would "shatter", even though we all know the million pieces is an undersood exaggeration..
but at most it would crack, or if it's a flip, break in half. [/from someone who dropped a flip phone from a 2nd-story landing onto tile, and it was still intact ;D]
but if it is true, that lady is amazing, just sayin'
YDI for having a $400 cell phone that isn't even durable. My phone was $100 when I got it (EnV, got it about 7 months ago), and I've dropped it countless times, and even had it fall, bounce, and slide on rock, concrete, and tiles. It's only got a few scratches on it.
Haha I see what she did there! ;p
Who goes out and buys a 400 dollar cell phone? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA mine is 60 and it's better than your dropped call
have a sense of humor. and don't post this to fmylife
#104 - On 11/04/2009 at 11:09pm by thebigone
hi5 to that lady for her comment. sorry for u
If you're looking for a phone, you should seriously get an LG Shine (Slide).
They are literally indestructable.
I've dropped mine ALL the time, and it's in amazing condition (save for a couple scratches!)
I hate people like you don't cry overspilled milk and buy a damn case your life sucks sure but that's why they make insurance for phones get your headbout of your ass and do something to prevent that. that woman is funny and she deserves to hit you for being so stupid. I would of laughed my ass off to see that happen and phones don't shatter like that. Dumbass.
have you heard of exaggeration? fucking dumbass
OMG. " I miss rich I bought a 400 dollar cell phone and I'm gonna go brag about it on FML" pleaseee GO BUY A FCUKIN COVER idiot
Are you three stories tall that your phone actually shattered when you dropped it?
A. That woman is awesomely lamely hilarious. B. Phones don't shatter if you just drop them, unless they're like, $50. You would have either had to drop it from an insanely epic height, or you would have had to slammed it onto the floor and/or thrown it.
lol you gotta give it to that lady that was pretty witty. And what kind of phone shatters to pieces? ive had free phones and $400 phones. the free phone are surpisingly more durable than the expensive ones but neither would "shatter"
ahhaa she's a funny one. you should have asked for her number... oh ya nevermind.FYL
Thanks for that one, srsly. I'm sick right now (probably swine, yay!) but that made me physically feel better. Thanks and sorry about the phone.
What phone shatters was it made of nothing but cheap glass?
#117 - On 11/05/2009 at 12:12am by cartrub
She just turned a fail into an epic win!
YANKEESSSS WIIIIINNN WWOOOOOOOO
Did you pick up all of the 1-million pieces?
or can you just count that quickly and accurately?
#120 - On 11/05/2009 at 12:23am by yhw718
People really spend $400 on a cell phone?
I drop my iPhone often and it usually ends up fine! except for the one time on tile.. even then just a cracked screen and everything still worked!
Who spends $400 on a cell phone!?!?!? That's just stupid.... therefore, you deserve it!!!
#124 - On 11/05/2009 at 12:57am by dont_u_know_it
some people want to own an iphone or sidekick
what's the big deal? you must have Cricket.
it's funny that you care more about the lady being optimistic, instead of trying to find a replacement phone. you didn't deserve it, but this isn't really a fml.
Expensive phone is dumb for a couple reasons but FYL.
And kudos to that woman!!!
#128 - On 11/05/2009 at 1:42am by shelboo
I'm sorry to sound like a douche, but that's exactly the kind of thing I would have said. Either that or, "You know, I don't think you're supposed to do that."
You know, I have never in my life gotten a phone that cost anything, let alone $400. I have had 3 perfectly good free-with-plan phones, and I have dropped them repeatedly, thrown them across the room, and I've never had anything break. The only thing that even remotely affected any of them was when i was at a beach with really fine sand on a super windy day, you can still feel that there is sand in every tiny seam on that one. but anyway. my phone does everything I want it to, and i'm not glued to it 24/7 like some people i know. So, pretty much I think I'm better off.
i would have told her to fuck off
wow, I didn't know 400dollar cell phones break into so many pieces. shit i didn't know they break at all.
I'd have called the lady out for confusing an action verb with a noun. You weren't calling anyone so it's just a dropped cell. Her attempt at being clever failed.
ps- I'm using 400 to buy a ps3 and a game today and I'd still have money leftover
That woman deserves a medal
also
OP ydi for buying an iShit, I mean an iPhone
not where I live dumbarse
YDI for dropping $400 on a fucking phone. That's a damn waste of money whether it breaks or not.
agreed!
#143 - On 11/05/2009 at 2:43am by kindness
some people have a lot of disposable income. clearly you're not one of them.
My iPhone was $200 and well worth it, I can't imagine a phone getting any better than this. And I've dropped it from 5 feet and nothing happened. A phone that's $400 better have a dick sucking app.
BAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Made my day. Invest in a case next time, dumbass =D
Nokia 3310. You can drop one from third floor and it still works.
I laughed too. That's why it's called a joke. Oh, and buy a blasted case next time. Sheesh...
I really doubt your phone actually shattered. Phones don't do that. It might have cracked, but unless you were throwing it out the window from about 3ft up, it wouldn't 'shatter into a million pieces'
Dude, you suck. What $400 phone shatters when you drop it 1-2 meters?
Go get a nokia 1100. IT'S GOT A FLASHLIGHT. THE BATTERIES LAST A WEEK. YOU CAN PLAY HOCKEY-SACK WITH IT. /facts and real stories.
haha OMG i luv how that woman just walked by and was like "now thats what you call a droped call" omg like PERFECT timing much? haha and btw OP..... maybe you should try not freekig buying phones that your not able to keep from getting broken. I recomend one of those plastic ones that you give to kids with pictures of like Elmo on them.
#159 - On 11/05/2009 at 6:57am by baby_gurl2405
What $400 cell phone would break when you drop it? :S
I've got an N97 and its 500 pound i've dropped it lots of time works fine :)
hahaha clever lady! btw sucks to be you
if you do have an iPhone, YDI because you paid $400 for it. I have one and only paid $200 for it. and for those of you making fun on insurance, I bought insurance from Best Buy that covers EVERYTHING except if it is lost or stolen. That mean I can take those 100 pieces and they'll give me a new phone. :) YDI, again, for not checking out your options.
#164 - On 11/05/2009 at 9:36am by alove23
YDI for buying a $400 phone with no insurance.
Hahaha this is funny xD Good one xD
"dropped call" lmao. That woman's got a pretty quick wit.
wow I would have stabbed her....hard
#169 - On 11/05/2009 at 11:31am by scheeterla15
That sucks. Hopefully you had some sort of insurance, or can afford to replace it automatically. You might want to get a soft case or holster for your phone in the future. I've dropped my blackberry before but since it's always in the holster it's always okay.
your ENTIRE life is fucked isn't it? GTFO
That's why you don't buy a $400 phone. If they break that easily, then they're pieces of crap and not worth it. I've dropped by cheapie little phone so many times on concrete and floors and it's still alive and kicking and has been for the 4 years I've had it. Be frugal. You don't need a $400 phone.
Now THAT'S what I call a New Yorker! 8D I love my people.
#178 - On 11/05/2009 at 3:54pm by TerraofDarkness
my phone cost $30 and i kicked it into a concrete wall. (by accident) It didn't break just a minor scratch.
#180 - On 11/05/2009 at 4:42pm by omgwhatanfml
are you sure you didn't throw it on the ground because your so-called girlfriend told you it was your dad?
gold stars to anyone who gets this
What, you think I'm stupid? I'm not a part of your system! My dad's not a phone. Duh!
best song ever my favorite line: happy birthday to the ground
I am torn between "I'm an adult" and "You can't trust the system... MAN!"
destroy her for making such a lame joke
since when is dropping your phone on the floor not a mistake?
You should have said "and that's what you call a bad joke"
Haha, YDI for buying shitty, overpriced phones. Hell, I dropped my Razr a billion times and it is still in one piece.
you serious brought a $400 phone and it "shattered into a million pieces" just by dropping it once? you sure there wasnt a cherry bomb or something strapped to it? if not you should be sueing you cell phone company for defective merchandise
Why the hell would you pay $400 for a mobile phone? For that money it better make dinner and give me a back rub...
was it a blackberry crackberry? haha
thoes phones dont last for shit.
that actually was pretty funny
And people buy expensive things because its very psychological... makes you seem that important, that well off, and so on... lots of people do it.
Learn to laugh at yourself and you will enjoy life much more. I would have laughed right along with that woman. What's done is done.
thats what you get for buying a $400 phone in the first place.... let alone one that is going to shatter when you drop it.... let alone not having any kind of protection for it... common
If that happened to me then,
1. I would slap her for laughing at the fact I broke my phone
2. Kick her because cheesy lines like that are annoying
3. I would punch her because I would generally be pissed off for breaking my phone.
lol woman laughs at her own joke... you know you're cool when...
haha you gotta admit it was kinda funny though. Thats what you get for buying a 400 dollar phone. Next time get some cheap shit so that when you break it you don't care.
I love how everyone says they would "hit, slap, kick, punch, etc..." the woman, but truth be told, no one would actually hit her.
#19 I hear gay people get good service in uranus
Hahaha, kudos to that lady for thinking that up and actually saying that to you.
lmao that lady is a joke genius
YDI for paying $400 for a phone!!!
YDI for getting a phone that was apparently made out of glass!!
YDI for exaggerating how many pieces the phone broke into, assuming it was fewer than 1,000,000.
Also, YDI for not thanking that lady for the best laugh I've had in a week! That pun is too hilarious to pass up, so I don't blame her. Imagine if she didn't say it to you, she would be itching to say it to the next person she saw but it still wouldn't have been as funny.
((As far as the phone comments go, my phone cost me $50 and it has survived many, many drops and the occasionally slam or throw into a wall. A previous phone of the same model stopped working after I dropped it one too many times, but it was still intact, and Virgin Mobile replaced it for free.))
So go ahead and keep buying your ridiculously expansive and ridiculously fragile "smart" phones and complain when you are careless enough to break a $400 piece of equipment. (I only own one thing worth that much; a guitar amp that I take VERY good care of.)

damn Dude that sucks ! what kinda phone was it? I've dropped my iPhone several times. and I have no problems with it.
I'm sorry but that was funny. I hope you've got a warranty on that thing, otherwise FYL indeed.
that's funny but i don't get it
