Today, I learned why one should never insert a tampon after squeezing lemons. FML

memphis201 tells us more.

Just for clarification, I always wash my hands before I use a tampon, but in this case it was an emergency, if you get what I mean by that. I also didn't have the kind that uses an applicator available so I had to actually put my hands up there for the tampon to function properly.

Don't you wash your hands? I believe that's how you can get infections with dirty hands...

On the plus side you'll be lemony fresh. But seriously, that's unfortunate, acidic liquids+sensitive tissues do not mix.

You wipe with your bare hands?

No, I was STARTLED by a spider that crawled on my leg causing me to miss wipe.

73- That sounds like one hell of a cluster ****.

One should also not do that immediately after preparing Serrano hot peppers!

The thought makes me cringe.

So u seriously couldn't imagine that it wouldn't be a good idea?

I don't think she thought "This is a good idea. I should do it!" It is a simple mistake that could have been avoided in many ways, but wasn't.

That's so weird, cause I just a a Lemon and was smart enough to wash my hands.

But wasn't smart enough to spell ate, as ate

You just ate a lemon? Arn't those a tad sour to plainly take a bite of?

Mmm lemon fresh! Your bf might enjoy that haha

Except that she's using a tampon so we're talking lemonade with extra iron:-/

It'd be interesting if you made the same "sour" face that most people make while eating lemons.

Well, it's not quite the lemons that are, uh...in that area, though.

So you seriously couldn't imagine that it wouldn't be a good idea?

Pretty sure OP didn't experience this on purpose. She likely handled the lemons, went about her business doing something else, and then went to change her tampon after forgetting about the lemons.
