Today, I found out what it feels like to be slapped in the face with a potted cactus. FML

Whoever slapped you with it must've been a real prick.

I feel like I'm missing a backstory

The cactus-thrower strikes again! What could his motives possibly be, and where will he strike next? Tune in next time on FML Official!

Yay! Someone else still remembers the other cactus-throwing post!

Who the hell would be dumb/cruel enough to assault someone with a cactus?

Well, not even a month ago there was another fml with someone who got hit with a cactus...so apparently it's a weapon of choice. Lol.

Why the hell else would someone even bother keeping a cactus? Come on, now.

#94, because some people like cacti...? My grandparents had a saguaro cactus for about 30 years (eventually they gave it away or it died or something) but I loved it because it was huge and.cool looking. So I'd definitely own another cactus. :)

your name says 'thanks dad'... father son bonding gone wrong?

That pain..getting slapped by one must hurt badly.

I know your pain. I tripped and fell into a giant cactus when I was younger. I was pulling thorns out of my head for weeks.

weeks??? damn if i tripped and fell on a cactus and had thorns stuck in me.... id scream and i def wouldnt take weeks to get that crap taken care of...

They can be as fine as hair, so finding them can be difficult...I was in Boy Scouts and fell off a small cliff side into prickly pear cacti was stuck there for an hour waiting while they rigged a rescue harness to get me out. Nothing like digging needles out of your scrotum for a week

They can be very small and very fine. I would be just running my fingers through my hair and I'd find one weeks after it happened. It's certainly not anything that needs medical attention - all superficial.
