That's probably why in September, on the website fmylife.com, the iPhone 5 was the number one trending topic associated with the hashtag #FML, normally used by netizens to vent their frustrations. In fact, last month, more than 10,000 stories were posted with the hashtags #iPhone5 and #FML.
The website fmylife.com compiles short everyday anecdotes from people who complain about their lives on the Internet, using the hashtag #FML. Everyone can submit their little story to the website, but not everyone gets published on the homepage. Only the best grumbles, as voted on by the users, are highlighted.

Potential iPhone customers had a wide range of complaints. Some were about specific features, mostly the controversial new connector. "New #iPhone5 leaks confirm a new dock connector. Will need to buy a new clock radio if I upgrade. #FML," read one. "Dammit #iPhone5 how am I going to connect you to my car system since you have a different plug. #FML," said another.
Others were upset about their lack -- or abundance -- of patience. "#Iphone5 launches just 6 weeks after I get my 4s. #FML," said one. The opposite feeling was felt by an overly patient Apple fan. "I?ve been waiting 6 months to upgrade to the #iPhone5! No cool new features, #FML."
