Today, I got a nose piercing. I was asleep at the time in my backyard, and the piercer was a snake. FML

CoalRose tells us more.

Hey guys! OP here. Wasn't expecting this to post, so this was a pleasant surprise! Just made an account to give the follow up. :) The weather was really nice so I had decided to go out in the back to read and get some sun. Somewhere between reading and laying down I fell asleep. I'm not sure what really happened, but I'm assuming I startled it with a snore or batted at it in my sleep, because the next think I knew I woke up with searing pain in my nose and staring face to face with a snake. I'm fine, luckily, as the snake was just your household garden/garter snake! Unfortunately the piercing, bite, whatever you would like to call it is too off center to wear. :( But yeah! All your comments & puns have been his hilarious so far.

Ouch

Wow, im watching a snake movie right now that includes venomous snakes. You are lucky in this situation OP.

Why were you sleeping outside? Where there are snakes?

In certain areas, snakes might not be common but can still show up randomly (like garden snakes). OP might never have seen a snake before in their area and felt comfortable sleeping outside. Probably won't anymore though haha

I hate snakes! They scare the crap out of me....... This would have been a rude awakening, you can never trust snakes!

I love snakes! Can I bring my 9 foot boa to your house, he wants a nice tight hug from you! Haha I'm jk but snakes aren't bad, they are like any other house pet, if raised they'll just want your love!

Why were you asleep in your backyard?

I appreciate your sense of humor
