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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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, 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, 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
Today, I was working customer service at a large grocery store. I recently got a small, tasteful septum piercing that is barely visible. As I greeted a customer, she began to gag, held out her hand as though she was fending me off, and said, "I can't. Your nose ring makes me sick." FML
Today, I got a second piercing in my ear. I needed help cleaning the back, so I asked my dad for help. I told him to careful, but right when I did, he tore the earring out with the cotton swab. Thanks, dad. 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, 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 was threatened with suspension from school because of my nose piercing. I had to explain that it's actually a pimple. 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Why would she slap you If she thought you were picking your nose?

Op's mum still assumed she a) knew what was going on (never a good move) and b) that she had the right to slap op because she didn't like what she was doing, if you're old enough for a nose ring you're too old to have your actions physically adjusted by your parents

D: OWWW! I just got my nose pierced a couple days ago and the other night when I was washing my face my nose ring got caught on the washcloth. I thought THAT was painful because it jerked my nose ring a little. I can't imagine having it just ripped out. FYL

I stand corrected. It is snobbish and wrong of me to expect potential employees to dress to standard corporate specifications when I interview them. Please forgive me for thinking otherwise. How foolish I have been. What geniuses have we passed over through the years with our restrictive policies and perceptions? What dynamos and out-of-the-box thinkers have we sent packing because they had a nose ring or a giant tattoo? Foolish, absolutely foolish.

I feel your pain, OP. I know how annoying it is to have your mom slap you for doing something you weren't actually doing. And how painful the result can be. My mom came up and slapped the back of my head the other day when she saw me leaned in close to the mirror. She said she thought I was trying to pop a pimple. I was actually trying to get an eyelash out of my eye, and she made me stab myself in the eye with my thumbnail :(

I have taken a lot of parenting classes. They say that to be a good parent, spanking should stop at the latest by ten. If your child is mature enough to speak and be reasoned with, then the parent should attempt to reason with them. Slapping your teenage child because you think they are "picking their nose" is bad parenting. So yes, she truly hurt her daughter, who sounds almost old enough to be an adult. She should be slapped back for acting like a child.

I feel your pain, OP. Same thing happened to me after I stupidly pierced my own nose.
