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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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, I finally found the jewelry my two-year-old son had lost when it got lodged in my foot. FML
Today, I got my lip pierced. By the orthodontist. 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 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, my nose ring became a fish hook. What did I catch? My dog's harness. She nearly ripped it out of my face. FML
Today, my 2 year-old had a large booger blocking his nose so I pulled it out. I was on the phone and absentmindedly rolling it around between my thumb and pointer finger. I put it in my mouth and crushed it between my teeth for a solid minute before I remembered what it was. FML
Today, while undergoing the cumbersome task of screwing the tiny silver ball onto my lip piercing, I clumsily dropped it onto the counter and watched it bounce into the trash can, where it nestled snugly into a used maxi pad. FML
Today, I was taking my earrings out and thought I had lost the back of one. Turns out my ear infection has caused the flesh of my ear to grow around and engulf the back of my earring and it is still stuck in there. FML
Today, I swallowed the piercing that I had bought for my tongue yesterday. FML

Lip rings are atrocious. Once you get one, you deserve anything that happens as a result.

People need to stop saying "gauged." Gauge is a form of measurement. You STRETCH to get certain GAUGES of JEWELRY in. Learn the freakin' terms before you make yourself look dumb by using them improperly!

YDI for being a parent for at least 5 months and not knowing how tightly kids grab onto things, and for having a lip ring...you voluntarily put that hole in your lip already.

After 5 months of having a baby you should have guessed that would have happened, hell I've never had a kid and i knew it would.

Here's some good advice: kids like to pull on long hair, earrings, necklaces, and pretty much anything else you can think of. YDI

You deserve it for having a lip ring and trying to be a mom. When you have kids you have to let go of trying to be cool.

Lol...are you going to remember and live by this "rule" you've created when you're a parent, too?

All the moms with toddlers I know don't even wear earrings unless they are going out somewhere their kid wont be. A lip ring? And you LET him touch it? Ydi. A million times over, YDI.

If you put your finger in a baby's hand the first thing he/she does is wrap their little fist around it...you had to know that was going to happen and if not then you deserve to learn everything about babies the hard way... YDI rockstar mommy
