So... while everyone else complains it's TOO blatantly explained, you're complaining the reader has to infer ONE tiny detail?

@126 Talking about reading, you apparently aren't very good at it. At least where my comment is concerned. Conversely though maybe you are actually extremely spectacular at it, because you seem to have succeeded where many others have failed, you actually understand why she thinks the guy is cheating by seeing his cellphone. I listed four possibilities, each one crazier than the next (and none would be considered a "tiny" detail you could be reasonably expected to infer). So impart upon me your wisdom, did I guess it correctly? Or were you able to divine some fifth option that didn't occur to my simple mind. PS, since I'm being mean and sarcastic right now (you are actually probably a great person, and I don't mean any of this personally) I may as well cover the seeming contradiction. My last sentence complains about the fact the the illustrator over explains an unimportant details of the story (the boyfriend part, as 120 so kindly explained) yet seems to fail at explaining key details. PPS, you even told 120 that the reason the boyfriend part was necessary was because FML readers are idiots who have no deductive reasoning. Which really is going farther than my original complaint. But hey, we can't all live consistent lives, what fun would that be?

Some of the FML illustrations have a twist on them. It's not a new thing, but I think this was stretched a little too far.

If it was assumed it was his window, why would his girlfriend be surprised to see his phone there? She would probably think he dropped it when he was outside. So, she's probably reading a text message, because if not he could have just dropped it when he was walking. Do us all a favor and think before you say something like that. This answer was fairly obvious.
