Today, while I was waiting for an interview, I picked at a something I felt on my chin thinking that it was just some food. I had a good interview, then I got into my car and looked in the mirror, only to see that I had blood smeared all over my chin. Turns out I had picked a zit. No one told me. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I had a job interview. The night before, I'd noticed a small pimple forming on my chin and did everything I could to make it go away. During the interview, I couldn’t focus on anything except the giant pimple that had sprouted on my forehead. I spent the entire time trying to keep my fringe in front of it. FML
Today, I had an admissions interview at my dream college. I spent hours practicing questions and picking the perfect outfit. It was not until after the interview that I realized I'd scratched a pimple while waiting, and my forehead had been smeared with blood the entire time. FML
Today, I was brushing my teeth in my bathroom. As I looked in the mirror, I spotted a zit on my forehead. Keeping my toothbrush in my mouth, I quickly leaned in towards the mirror to pop the pimple, meanwhile lodging my toothbrush down my throat. I temporarily can't talk. FML
Today, I went to a barbecue and noticed a girl that I had be interested in. When I walked up to ask how she was doing I noticed she had some BBQ sauce on her face. Jokingly I licked my thumb and reach to remove it. It turned out to be a scab from a pimple she had popped earlier. FML
Today, I went on a movie date. During the movie, I picked a small zit on my forehead. Afterwards, at dinner, he couldn't seem to keep his eyes off of my face. I thought he was staring lovingly at me. He was actually staring at a large throbbing zit with a trail of blood coming from it. FML
Today, I rushed out of the bathroom with toothpaste smeared all over my chin and cheek. I was so anxious about going on a date that I didn’t realize this until said date pointed it out halfway through dinner. FML
Today, while at work, I managed to scrape open the inside of my nose with my fingernail, drawing blood in the process. I had to quickly up an explanation for my scream that didn't go: "Well, I was scouting for boogers..." FML
Today, while sharing my screen with our tech guy at work, I forgot he was there and opened Facetime to pick a zit on my chin. After going in for the squeeze, I horrifyingly remembered he could see everything and quickly closed it. After a few seconds, he said, "Did you get it?" FML
Today, I had a job interview and things were going really well until I noticed the woman interviewing me staring at the inside of my elbow. I am recovering from a poison sumac rash, and each spot looks like a puncture wound from a syringe. I was dismissed before the interview was over. FML
Today, I was on a date. I noticed he kept looking at my lips. Thinking he wanted to kiss me, I leaned in closer. Disgusted, he pulled away and said, "I'm sorry, but that pimple on your chin is, like, staring at me or something." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You really couldn't tell the difference? How does food ever get stuck to your face so much that you need to pick at it?

Maybe they thought the blood meant you were a vampire, and that you had just fed on the blood of a virgin. They must have been so terrified of you that nobody had the guts to say anything.

^This. And zits hurt when you pick at them, especially to the point where they bleed.

Nyeah, not all zits hurt, sometimes you pick at it and it starts bleeding, but you only notice when you see blood on your hand.

I rarely tell people they got something on their face. Why ruin the surprise?

Maybe they tried to warn you. Sometimes if someone has something on their face, I'll rub that area while staring at them and for some reason they do the same and get it off.

No one ever tells you stuff like that.

Agreed. I don't see why you'd be surprised that no one mentioned to a complete stranger, in a formal situation, the embarrassing fact that they had a bleeding zit on their face.

For a friend I will....I don't want them to be embarrassed. An enemy? I'll have them speak to lots of people and somehow find a perfect picture moment...

If they told you, you would have been so embarrassed/horrified that you might messed up on your interview =) Be happy, if the interview really went great then maybe they'll totally forget about the zit.

Fairly easy to tell the difference. YDI

Oh wow I would have been mortified. But like #9 pointed out, everyone on the planet gets a zit from time to time. If your interview was great, they may have just brushed it off as a human moment and it may not affect whether they choose to hire you or not.

Re-read the FML. They thought they picked it off.
