Today, I've has a constant feeling like something is moving in my ear. I'm a severe arachnaphobic, and my dad is trying to convince me a spider is in my ear laying eggs. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I woke up bright and early… because a spider crawled into my ear. FML
Today, I was going through my Facebook feed when I saw a post of a man being wheeled to the emergency room with a spider stuck in their ear. The post has me scared enough to want to sleep with earplugs. I'm a 37 year-old man. FML
Today, I discovered that it is possible for bugs to lay eggs in your ears. FML
Today, I went through the nightmare of having to go to my doctor so he could remove a living spider from my nasal cavity. FML
Today, knowing that I have severe arachnophobia, my brother brought over his friend's tarantula. One hour later, the spider got loose. It's been 5 hours and I'm afraid to go to sleep. FML
Today, my mom still freaks out and yells "Where?" when I mention spiders to her in any form, regardless of context, and no matter what I preface it with. She just fixates on the word "spider." I get that arachnophobia is pretty miserable to have, but this is ridiculous. Go see a therapist, mom. FML
Today, I was taking off my underwear to change into fresh clothes. Pulling them down, I realize there's a big fat spider in them. Not only did I have a spider chilling with my genitals the whole day, but I'm deathly afraid of them. FML
Today, it took a whole half hour of scratching my head before I realized with horror that the weird tickling sensation I'd been feeling was actually a spider crawling around in my hair. FML
Today, my son was crying and refusing to sleep in his room because a spider ran along the wall, and it's now hiding somewhere. He’s 19. FML
Today, I walked face first into a near-invisible spiderweb. There's nothing worse than the feeling of a spider web wrapped around your face. Except maybe the feeling of the spider that saw my screaming mouth as a good hiding spot. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I recommend going to a doctor. I had that same sensation once. It turned out that I had fluid behind my eardrum because of allergies, and it nearly ruptured.

Not quite, there are occasions where bugs can get in the ear. Guy went to the hospital once and they found a small cocroach/beetle (whatever the hell it was) had crawled in his ear while he slept.

odds are a spider layer some eggs in your ear. after all it is a well known fact that there are many spiders that cant be seen and crawl over your body even as you sleep.

I read an article where a guy in China had a bug in his ear and he sprayed raid in his ear and had to go to the ER.

Ok for the bugs stepping into the ears ... however, I read the FML carefully. It says « spider »... Spiders don’t lay eggs in the ears...
