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, it's the seventh day after my nose job. I was taking something out of a box and pulled too hard. I punched myself in the 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, 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

Today, while fighting with a girl I hate, my nose piercing got a little loose and I ended up snorting it in. That same girl had to take me to the hospital for surgery. She told everyone afterwards. 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 got a nipple piercing. My girlfriend thought I was pranking her with a fake piercing, because I wouldn’t be "daft enough" to get a real one, and she yanked it off, or rather through, my nipple. Yes, it cut my poor nip in half, and I now have two nipples where once I had only one. FML

Today, I got a new piercing because I was trying to be spontaneous. Now, I realize its placement is off and I hate it. FML

Today, I spent the first day of my senior year in the ER because my new ear piercing got so infected that the doctors had to cut the earring out. FML

Your pillow has a vendetta out for you. Sleep with one eye, or nostril, open.

I've had mine pierced for about 3 weeks. I've had mine ripped out by one of my friends i shared a bed with at a sleepover. It was a hot bloody mess, so i feel for you. Also, it comes out at least once every 3 nights. (I'm a crazy sleeper) Fortunately, the ring just slides through the next morning

Mine's never been ripped out, thankfully, but I did wake up once with the nose stud through the hole of one of my ear piercings...

FML team, could you fix the spelling error? It says, "I'd done everything.." Meaning "I would done everything.." Which doesn't make much sense. It should be I've* for "I have."

"I'd" is also a contraction of "I had". In fact, the Oxford dictionary of English lists "I had" as the main meaning. "I have" would be totally wrong, since the deed is done. Pretty basic English. Are you sure you're sober?

I had the same thing happen to me right after I got my nose pierced.

Tee Shirts over your pillowcases work a lot better... Cleaner, adhesive won't infect it, and won't get ripped out unless you use a really ratty one.

Why are you still wearing the band aid after seven days. Whoever told you what to do doesn't know what they're doing

Why would you ever put a bandaid over your nose ring???? I could be wrong, but it seems to me that a bandaid over a healing piercing would serve no purpose other than to trap lymph and dirt against the hole and further irritate the wound. I've had a nose ring for almost two months, and my piercer never told me to use a bandaid. (My nose healed perfectly)
