Today, I was hosting a pool party, when my husband and his friends got the bright idea of lighting one of the party balloons on fire. Needless to say, it immediately exploded. In shock, he jumped back straight into me, sending me and my $400 cell phone splashing into the pool. FML

Awh, muffin! Maybe next time you won't spend $400 on a phone. There are some people who can't afford a phone. Smh. But, about your husband, fyl. Some guys are just idiots.

Why does everyone.blame the guy??? That must have been funny and she's stupid for getting a 400 dollar phone . It's not necessary.

I don't think it's fair to judge you for buying a $400 phone. In fact, I even think that's really cheap because for example, the cheapest iPhones (iPhone 5's) are €676 here, which is approximately $882. Back in 2011, I also bought an iPhone which was actually way more expensive than the iPhone 5 now. Hope your insurance covered it.

its funny that people are judging this person for having a $400 phone when full retail prices for phones are pretty expensive. the reason they're cheap at the phone stores is because you usually get them with a contract or upgrade. and for everyone saying she should put down her phone - maybe her phone was in her pocket. i always leave my phone in my pocket if i'm not using it. stop being such judgmental jerks and look at yourself first.

What I don't understand is you having your phone on you at a POOL party? What, can't live without it for a few hours? YDI.

Sorry... $400 for a cell phone? All of mine have been free... And they're not crappy either

Not needless to say at all - the balloon would've been filled with helium, which isn't flammable

Don't have such an expensive phone,also something exists that is called a WARRANTY y'know.

You could try putting the phone in alcohol or rice. Might not work with that much water damage, but it's worth a shot. Good luck OP!!!
