Today, I went deep-sea fishing with my friends. I told them my new phone case is waterproof, and I showed them by pouring a bit of water on it. My friend decided to throw it in the water for a better example. The case didn't float. FML

I think you need to throw your friend overboard and find out if he floats.

Seriously.. People this dumb shouldn't be able to go deep-sea fishing

Yes, an intellectually stimulating activity like deep-sea fishing should be reserved only for the smartest members of our community.

What an idiot friend. Nonetheless, OP should have jumped in after it. My phone is like a baby to me. I would be so lost without it.

I think you missed the part where it said "deep-sea" #89

there's always that one 'special' friend

"My phone is like my baby" I hate new, modern technology. Especially smartphones because they take the true meaning out of phones, and they are just a handheld computer. I hate it. Mostly the people using it though.. "LULZ HAY GURL #SELFIE LIKE U WUNNA GO GET SOM DRINKS? #BAR #ALCOHOL #DRINKING"

Well it did it only say "waterproof."

No, it said it would float if thrown into the salt water of the ocean - please test to make sure this feature works....

My case is waterproof while I was helping my gf babysit the kid threw my phone on a pond, I didn't find it for 2 hours

I think you need to throw your friend overboard and find out if he floats.

Well the friend went overboard so its only fair that the friend goes overboard.

@earth_venus, Careful what you say. You'll freak out the 2 Salem witches who are hiding here.

it seems to me that you and #58 are the ones who really missed the pun train here.

imagine how cool it would be if you find it and it still works!

"Deep sea fishing" they aren't going to find it, haha.

and the waterproof cases only work up to a certain depth. but ya they will never find it lol

It will be crushed because of water pressure.

Oh his friend has a soul, just a really dumb one.

People gotta learn the difference between waterproof and submersible. Also, your friend sucks OP

You mean I can't go swimming in my waterproof windbreaker and come up dry?

What does being submersible have to do with it's buoyancy? Even if the device can function fully submerged in water doesn't mean it will float. Why does this have so many upvotes?

I'm with Joe, waterproof and submersible are basically the same thing.... My guess Joe, your down votes are coming from people who now feel silly for up voting the original comment.

I think that the commenter was meaning that the friend should have known waterproof doesn't always mean submersible so chucking it into even a glass of water is a stupid idea

I don't think that'll make the warranty.

It probably doesn't but that friend should be buying him a new phone

Nothing Ever makes the warranty... And even if you think it does, there is Always something in the super fine print that'll leave you out to dry... Or if you're super lucky it'll be covered but your new phone is only $30 cheaper then store price... Mean ass phone companies...

I'm sure you can find it with the find my iphone app!! Just kidding

OP: Hmm... Seems my phone is 22 fathoms under us... Dumb ass "friend": Like, how deep is a fathom again man?? OP: *facepalm* Why don't you find out buddy?!? And get my phone while you're at it!! *throws dummy overboard* OP: I feel better now

The case doesn't float but at least Nemo can play Candy Crush on your phone at the bottom of the sea.

What if he doesnt have one and finds his **** stache?

Is a **** stache like a mustache made of ****?

I thought **** stache was an Orange Is The New Black character

How the **** is Nemo gonna play Candy Crush on a PHONE CASE?

101, maybe you need to be tossed overboard and let us all know how Nemo will play it on "A PHONE CASE"

#14 Mabye the phone has a password but at least nemo can take selfies

BecauseIAmBatman_fml 22

#101, one would assume the phone was attached to the case.

You need better friends, or at least smarter ones
