    Mine phoned the local Gardai a few times, I had them on speed dial. They phoned back and asked was everything allright!

    Never happened. From reading Boards the Garda in Ireland would never be so caring to call you back.

    True as God. When I saw 'Gardai' coming up on the phone, I nearly passed out thinking oh jesus what have I done wrong!

    I had a load of offensive bad taste pictures saved up from a thread on a private forum here saved in a folder. Forgot to lock my phone once in work and left it in my pocket. Checked it an hour or two later and the pics were on my facebook wall. All offensive pics about Muslims, Jade Goody, etc...

    Once you listen to "Serial" - if that phone call that hangs over the entire issue was indeed a "buttdial" - then no story tops Adnan Syed's...

    What sort of life do you lead that you need the Gards on speed dial?

    I had reason to call them one night about an incident outside my house and just saved the number after that. But I needn't have bothered, nothing else more exciting has happened ever since.

    My Nokia 3210 dropped from my pocket once and left a crater on the exact spot it landed on.

    a true story which happened up here a couple of years ago.

    A driver decided to drive through a garda checkpoint because he was pretty drunk and knew the game was up.

    Gardai gave chase only to find car abandoned on narrow country road.

    Garda rings station with car reg, and garda at station looks up reg only to find that he knows the guy, and has his mobile number on his list of contacts.... so he rings the guys phone.

    There are some bushes in the field beside where the car is abandoned.. and from the bushes came the Nokia ringtone.

    This one time I called my cousin and all he could hear was the phone rubbing off the inside of my coat pocket. Then another time the exact same thing happened again. I was mortified. I couldn't bear to see him for at least 10 minutes.

    because you had to "rub the inside of your coat pocket"?

    Possible drug deals or potential sexual encounters/sex talk. Possibly heard by my Dad when I was about 20-22.

    I was always so shy talking about sex with my folks.

    One particular phone I had was a curse for sending texts every time I put it in my pocket.Its best party trick was however was going on the internet and signing me up to a subscription wrestling site.
    It was a touch screen phone,still completely baffled how it did it.

    The time I put me phone in the pocket and it started streaming/downloading a porn on loud speaker...

    Besides the embarrassment, I was more pissed off it didn't download the gay midget porn I had searched for in the first place, waste of data ffs.

    There was a girl walking around Galway with her arse out and her skirt pulled up and nobody got a pic because their phones were in their pockets. Does that count?
