【Artist Bong (2013) Uncut】

President Obama left the White House on Artist Bong (2013) UncutFriday to head to Chicago, but as he was en route to board Marine One he realized he was missing something: his phone.

An extremely relatable Obama patted himself down, had a quick moment of panic and realized that before he could go any further he needed to turn around and sprint to retrieve his beloved communication device.

It's okay, Obama -- we've all been there.

Believe it or not, this isn't Obama's first forgotten cellphone incident. Back in November 2014 the president made a similarly memorable scene when he literally sprinted back to the White House to retrieve his BlackBerry.

"Didn't you guys ever forget something?" the considerate president asked a group of Secret Service agents after returning with his phone. "I forgot my BlackBerry," he said, smiling and holding the device proudly in the air.

At least we can all rest peacefully knowing that not even the leader of the free world can leave home without his phone.

Thanks, Obama.
