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 woke up and coughed up the spider I thought I'd killed last night. 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 :(

Since I keep my inhaler in my purse with my hairbrush, I accidentally inhaled a hair once. From then on, I made it a habit to remove the medicine canister and blow into the inhaler to be sure there's nothing lodged in it.

As an asthma sufferer myself, I smell fake here. First, the inside of the mouthpiece wouldn't be a hospitable environment for a spider (or any other arachnid or insect) to hang out or lay eggs. Second, you don't swallow the contents of what comes out of the inhaler. Third, "upon closer inspection"? Please. If there was only one of them in there, there was nothing to inspect...and if there were two or more, you would have seen them before taking a puff. Therefore, I call bullshit. However, just on the off chance you're not posting a fake, unless this is your rescue inhaler, you need to use it every day. Most asthma sufferers can't skip a day with their prevention inhaler.

Ah, gross. But um, if it makes you feel any better spiders crawl into your mouth while you sleep sometimes so not too gross? Just hope it wasn't poisionous...
