Health: Today, I absentmindedly stuck two magnets in my mouth while talking,...

Today, I absentmindedly stuck two magnets in my mouth while talking, and accidentally swallowed them. I had to go the emergency room. The nurses at the station laughed at me. They thought it was a joke. They couldn't believe an 18 year old would swallow magnets. FML

Today, my five-year-old told me she had accidentally swallowed a thumbtack. In panic mode we raced to the ER. With no insurance. Only after the tests, examinations and X-rays did she tell me was "just joking." FML

Today, I went to the dentist for a routine cleaning. As the dentist was working on my teeth, he accidentally sprayed water all over my face. I couldn't stop laughing nervously, which made the dentist think I was choking. He ended up calling for backup and I had to explain that I was just laughing. FML

Today, I blanked and forgot to take out my piercing before going for my MRI, even though the nurses asked me multiple times to make sure I had no metal on me before entering, you know, the big machine made of massive electromagnets. The piercing was on my clitoris. FML

Stiff upper lip

Today, I went to the dentist for a routine check-up, and halfway through the appointment, the dentist exclaimed, "Oops!" Turns out, he accidentally glued my lips together while fixing a tiny chip in my front tooth. I spent the next two hours communicating through exaggerated facial expressions and hand gestures. FML

Today, I accidentally punched myself in the mouth while eating a Go-Gurt. I was eating it because I'd just had my wisdom teeth removed. FML

Today, as I was trying to remove my lunch from the hot oven tray, my finger brushed against the metal for a moment, and I instinctively put it in my mouth. I burnt my tongue, on my finger. I didn't realize that was possible. FML

Today, I went to the orthodontist to have my braces worked on. I accidentally swallowed some of the cleaning solution she used. She told me it would probably give me an upset stomach. Apparently, an upset stomach and crapping your pants means the same thing to an orthodontist. FML

Today, my little brother put a battery to my tongue while I was sleeping with my mouth open. The shock found its way right to my metal filling. FML

what's wrong with swallowing magnets? you can walk up to a girl wearing a bunch of jewelry (well maybe really really cheap jewelry thats magnetic) and be like.. "I think there's a connection.. I'm magnetically attracted to you"

I just want to say while hanging posters in my room once I swallowed a push pin after coughing, so I know what your going through. After seeing the doctor thought they told me it would pass, but to watch for symptoms if anything was to go wrong.

You're like the people who shove things up their butt, go to the emergency room, and say they "fell on it." I think there is more to this story....

I think putting things like that in your mouth without any thought can be a sign of an iron deficiency. May want to check that out.

...yeah I absentmindedly put things in my mouth sometimes. But I don't have to go to the hospital. Unless he has herpes or something...

this whole entire story doesnt even make sense. - what were you doing putting magnets in your mouth? - why in the world would you do it while you were talking? (or at all) - how in the world did you "accidently" swallow them? - why didnt the person (or people) you were talking to try and stop you from putting these objects into your mouth? - and do you really think its strange that all the nurses were laughing at you? honestly. i probably would have told you to wait for them to pass naturally and walk away.
