Health: Today, I used my inhaler for the first time in a year. As soon...

Today, I used my inhaler for the first time in a year. As soon as I took a puff I felt something strange go down my throat. Upon closer inspection I discovered there had been a spider living in the mouth of my inhaler... and I had just swallowed it. FML

Today, I was suffering from an asthma attack, so I grabbed my inhaler and took a puff. This was probably very disturbing for the earwig which had somehow made my puffer its home, as I discovered when it shot into my mouth. FML

Today, I was sitting under a rather large house plant in my dining room, minding my own business when a spider lowered itself right in front of my face. It startled me, causing me to gasp, which resulted in me inhaling the spider. I then spent 3 minutes choking on it. FML

Today, I found out that the stories about how you swallow insects and spiders in your sleep are true, as I woke up to a funny taste in my mouth and the remains of a spider stuck to my braces. FML

Today, I went through the nightmare of having to go to my doctor so he could remove a living spider from my nasal cavity. FML

Today, I tried to blink out a small speck of dirt that was caught in my eye. Instead, I learned what it feels like to suffocate a small, angry spider with your eyelid. FML

Today, I was eating lunch outside with my friends, when a spider fell on one guy's back. I glanced at it and opened my mouth to warn him when another guy flicked it and it went into my mouth. I can still taste it. FML

Today, I had an asthma attack. I grabbed my inhaler and found peanut butter on it. I'm extremely allergic to peanuts. FML

Did you swallow the spider to catch the fly? I don't know why you swallowed a fly. ...Perhaps you'll die.

If that happened to me I would have to use the inhaler so I wouldn't have an asthma attack! FYL :(

YDI, you should have checked. Plus, inhalers expire after a few months.

that's disgusting! One time I had an earwig in there, but I never swallowed it! I've checked it every time I've used it ever since though lol

Hey...statistics show that you swallow at least 2 spiders a year in your sleep. This just means you will get extra protein! But don't feel bad. I've found bugs in my inhaler too. That's why I check them before I use them. Lol.

Doesn't your inhaler have a mouthpiece guard like most?

Auuugh, that sucks. To everyone whining about inhalers expiring after a few months - my salbutamol (ventolin) inhaler expires in 2010, and I received this one in early 2008. Not to mention all the ones I have owned prior for the past 10 years running have had the same 'shelf-life.' Plus the top end of the inhaler is open where the tip of the canister pokes out, so the cap really does nothing but keep the mouthpiece clean.
