Today, I finally got my hands on the new iPhone 5, after I pulled it out of a patient's rectum. FML

This is like the time that guy shat a magnet.

People find all kinds of uses for the iPhone. I'm not surprised that it became a makeshift ***** considering how the price of the phone itself already ***** us.

He was just trying to get his money's worth.

He paid 600 dollars for a butt plug. Nice.

I paid 300 and sold my old one for 250 so really i paid 50 for my iphone 5. Not a big ripoff. But i wouldnt shove it up my ass lol

An iPhone was used as a vibrator in an FML a while back. I think we know where OPs patient for the idea

am I the only one who didn't think an iPhone could fit through the rectem?

There are better ways to give bad reviews rather than say you literally shit it out.

They take it to more literal terms, when they say "the iphone 5 is a piece of shit."

....I don't think I will never understand some people's obsession of shoving foreign objects up their butt....

... I'm with court_f... This also confuses me... And it's really gross... And it seems like it would hurt like a bitch >_

Me neither. Things will only go out of that end.

This reminds me of the jackass episode where Ryan Dunn sticks a toy car up his ass. An i phone is much bigger and much more expensive so I don't really understand this.

I'm sure you realize that was a double negative. Enjoy the ass play.

I'm wondering how he got it in his rectum

Yes,it's called "Rectal Cam". The newest sensation that's sweeping the nation! Complete with a rectal sensor and enhanced GP-a$$,siri will record all.So get it now for the reasonable price of whatever medical bills you have in the future,hurry,before the sh*t hits the fan!

I've heard people say you can use crisco for everything, but I doubt this is something they had in mind when saying that...

desireev 17

I hear that the iPhone 5 can withstand almost anything. They were, probably, just testing the durability.

Psych101 9

Those commas were, probably, unnecessary.

desireev 17

Actually, look it up. They are not only necessary, they are grammatically correct.

Well, you could get away with the first comma, but there was no need for one after the probably.

Psych101 9

34- I tried to look up it up, but couldn't find anything. Where would I find the reasoning for that? If it does turn out to be grammatically correct, then I apologize.

desireev 17

That would be correct if the word "probably" were at the beginning of the sentence. But because I used it in the middle of the sentence, it requires 2 commas. Please, don't test my knowledge. I have spent a lot of time in school to know how to speak and write correctly. I know what the hell I'm doing.

Airman1988 9

Damn those tricky commas! "shakes fist in air"

This is the most ridiculous argument I've ever seen on FML. There was no need for ANY commas in that sentence. There, all fixed.

Psych101 9

59- Is it possible to be clearer? What is the grammatical rule that requires the commas to be there?

desireev 17

The word "probably" is known as a sentence interrupter. When using an interrupter, you need to surround the word with commas. "However" and "therefore" are other sentence interrupters. This isn't English class. But if you feel the need, I will educate you on the proper uses of commas in a sentence.

Rule: if it makes your sentence nonsensical or causes the reader to sound like a text-to-speech program, then it is not grammatically correct.

Well if she was trying to use it as an appositive phrase then she would use two commas because it can be taken out of the sentence and the sentence would still make sense; she could have used parentheses to the same effect.

olpally 32

A grammatical argument... What a waste of time and space... God help us all. Lmao... *drinks a beer and watches the replies pile up* :D

Psych101 9

90- Appositives phrases explain something further or give example. Probably does neither of these.

hisgirlherboy 5

Actually, commas come after mild interjections, and probably is one. I'm pretty sure 5 is right.

hisgirlherboy 5

16, you're right but you don't need to be an ass about it. Commas are required after mild interjections, and I'm pretty sure probably is one. And 16, your explanation actually doesn't make sense, so you're right, but you don't actually know why. P.S ignore my previous comment, I pressed send before I ment to.

Psych101 9

117/118- Probably is an adverb, which is a different part of speech from an interjection. 81- Along with probably, neither "therefore" or "however" should be surrounded by commas in a sentence. There should be a semicolon, the word, and then a comma. This only when the word is in the middle of a sentence.

LiterOfCola 16

15's commas are grammatically correct but still unnecessary as it'd be grammatically correct without them

The easiest way to figure a comma out is to simply say the sentence out loud. If you pause, then more it's likely that there is a comma. The original comment is grammatically correct, end of story.

desireev 17

119- Wasn't trying to be an ass in any way. I did, however, find it annoying that my comment to the FML was being attacked because of my correct use of grammar.

@148 *dramatic chord, bright flare of sunlight, heroic pose* NEVER! WE WILL NEVER CALM THE **** DOWN, NOT UNTIL GOOD GRAMMAR REIGNS THROUGHOUT THIS FAIR WEBSITE. Yeah, ok, this is a kind of silly argument, but I really don't feel like dealing with big issues at the moment.

Psych101 is correct. A semicolon and a comma is the way you're supposed to punctuate an interrupter. Though her sentence would have looked/sounded just as clunky, even with proper grammar.

After speaking with a high school English teacher, who incidentally also has her masters, she said that putting the commas in was not only unnecessary, but actually made the sentence grammatically incorrect.

I feel like I was just re-educated 8 times in one comment thread. I don't know WHAT to believe in anymore!!!

195 - high school English teachers were the teachers who couldn't get jobs at the college level. Just saying. And yes with a masters she would definitely be eligible to be a college instructor.

LiterOfCola 16

195: That's actually wrong. It still makes sense and is grammatically correct. It's just really awkward and unnecessary, plus it could easily be written better. I'm surprised an English teacher with their masters wouldn't be able to tell that...

LiterOfCola 16

Think of it this way: it's awkward but everyone can agree that saying "Probably, she was just testing the durability" makes sense. If you add a comma before probably, you can insert it anywhere in that sentence before the main verb (testing). 15 obviously doesn't really know her grammatical rules, but yea I just thought I'd help.

282# You are a dumb ass "Just saying". That's a load of shit and not how teaching jobs work. Elementary teachers aren't elementary teachers because they were too stupid to get any other job. Also, this thread is a prime of example of people arguing for the sake of arguing. Call me when abortion, gay rights, politics, or morals hits the fan. Sheesh.

Let me point out this one thing that everybody has failed to noticed. HISGIRLHERBOY, you've indirectly contradicted yourself, and in so doing, you have proven yourself wrong. If DISIREEV had been correct all along in her usage of the two commas, then, concerning your #119 post, you would've had to have used commas in the two instances that you used the word "actually," because the words "actually" and "probably" have the same value and serve the same, but different purposes. DESIREEV, what's gross and laughable is not your incorrect usage of the commas, but rather how nastily defensive you got and your refusal to graciously accept the fact that you are wrong and go on.

30 comments about commas. Just let it go you look so dumb right now.

Oh...my....fu****....gawd....people...wut....diuretic..GUI......durrrr......hurrrr.....purrrpo.....murrrrp.... Someone help me, I can't hear, my, self, think.

Lucky I haven't seen in it in person :l

17- In person, or in "a" person?

That's probably the best thing a person could do with that phone anyways... Besides, that patient probably changed the design of the phone more than Apple did!

Wow look at that! 20 mindless sheep thumbing me down for stating a fact- the iPhone 5 is a bigger iPhone 4S that hardly looks any different from its predecessor. Wake up already, people! And yes, I am currently writing this on a small iPhone 5 A.K.A. iPhone 4S.

I've seen an interview with a hospital nurse. Apparently, people come into hospitals every day with stuff stuck up their ass. This nurse even saw this metal spring stuck up a guy's ass. And the interview was being done as part of a "1000 ways to die" episode where a guy dies after sticking a shitload of thermometers up his rectum, and they break and release mercury into his bloodstream. It's actually not a rare phenomenon.

Iniezian 18

I hardly ever go to parties (seriously).

"1000 ways to die" is actually based on possibilities that COULD happen. It's for entertainment purposes only. I wouldn't suggest believing everything you watch on that show.

Last time i was in hospital a man was brought into emergency with an oar stuck in his ass. Apparently he slipped and fell on it. Patients admitted into hospitals because they shoved foreign objects where they shouldnt be shoved is more common than you think

Iniezian 18

That's right I'm 19. And I've never "gone out with my friends", never even kissed a girl, and generally never did any of the frivolous stuff associated with my age.

103- Are you suggesting that because he is 19, he MUST go to parties?

StupidBunnies 10

173- I'm glad I'm not alone in being a 'Hermit'

Actually, 1000 Ways to Die, although comprised of scripted and exaggerated re-enactments, is based entirely on stories that HAVE happened. I've looked some of them up, the show's websites cites sources, one story was actually someone I knew, and I actually learned about one extraordinary class in my pathogenic micro class in med school. Entertaining AND educational!

Extraordinary "case". Damn my excitement.

174: no but I think it's just uncommon that he doesnt

173: I'm 18 and I don't go "partying" I'm a Christian girl and down to earth I don't see why everyone associates all of our age group as partiers but it's what we have to deal with.

Iniezian 18

We all have our reasons. I've always been content to remain at home and study the world through my books and the Internet. I simply enjoy studying the world more than partying and drinking and smoking, and now have an almost professor-like knowledge of history and politics and current events. And I've met a LOT of teens like me over the Internet. Believe me, it's not as uncommon as you might think.

My dad is an ER doctor, and he told me that once a guy came in with half a snowglobe in his rectum. The glass part.

My uncle works for the show and they aren't based on actual events, only events that could possibly happen. On one episode, a girl went to a pie eating contest to hook up with a guy and have him puke on her since it turns her on. There is a fetish involving puke but the story wasn't true and I helped my uncle write a script for the show. The stories are for entertainment purposes only
