Today, I woke up to a weird feeling on my face. Thinking it was a bug, I slapped at it. It was my freshly-inserted nose ring. FML

Today, I was adjusting my nose piercing from the inside. My mother saw and thought I was picking my nose, so she slapped my hand away, tearing my nose ring out in the process. FML

Snug as a bug…

Today, my nose had been feeling weirdly uncomfortable all day. After I got home, I blew my nose really hard. I found that a bug had been resting inside my nose the entire time. FML

Today, there was something itching me in my bed, it was the tag to my pillow case. I ripped it off, very hard and slipped and punched myself right in the face. I broke my nose. FML

Today, I had a spur of the moment idea to go have my nose pierced. The piercer made sure to tell me how easily the little stud could get caught or hung up. I spent all day stressing over it only to scratch my nose and rip it out. Now I have a $40 bleeding hole in my nose. FML

Today, while resting in bed, I felt a slight tickle on my neck. Thinking it was a cockroach, I panicked and flung it across the bedroom. Turns out it was my brand new necklace, which is now broken into dozens of pieces. FML

Today, I was about to get in the shower, when I felt an odd itch in my navel. I saw what I thought was bellybutton lint, so I pulled on it, and quickly realized what I had between my fingers was a still-squirming, headless tick. FML

Today, marks the seventh day of having my nose pierced. I'd done everything I was supposed to do, even sleeping with a band-aid over it. This morning, I woke up to my piercing being ripped out by my pillow, and the band-aid nowhere in sight. FML

Today, I reached to pick out a booger stuck in my nose that had been irritating me, and ended up poking myself in the eye. FML

Today, I saw a bug on a stranger's arm and as a knee-jerk reaction smacked it. It took me a second before I realized it was actually a loose scab. FML

Today, my 5 month old son decided that my lip ring was a toy. Thinking it would be ok, I let him touch it. He got his finger caught and pulled his hand back. The lip ring is still in, but now I have a huge gaping hole in my face. FML

Yeah, whenever I feel something on my face the first thing I do is slap it.

No, I believe she was just not used to the feeling of her new piercing

I feel your pain, OP... Had so many similar mishaps with many of my piercings... My mom consistently poked my navel piercing while it was healing, my aunt tried to pinch my brand new eyebrow ring off my face because she thought it was a mosquito, and I was constantly hitting, poking, or getting my hair tangled in my helix and lip piercings when they were new. And somehow it's always just that much worse when you do it yourself...

Next time before doing anything; put some hydrochloric acid on your face. It always takes away my weird feeling.

How the hell do you expect to be able to pick your nose while driving with that thing in there?

I just don't understand how you would mistake the piercing for a bug. Out of all of mine, never had that problem. I have forgotten a new one and scratched that spot, which sucks tremendously!

I snagged mine on a washcloth while I was scrubbing my face. That shit hurts!

I yanked mine out with a towel while drying my face only 2 days after getting it!

Maybe you should learn to think? I think that is a good idea.
