Today, I made a cup of tea at work. Whilst talking to a workmate, I took a sip of the tea, which I had forgotten was boiling hot, and laughed at the same time, causing it to come out of my nose. I have blistered my whole mouth and even burnt my nostrils. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I spilt a very hot cup of tea all over a burn I got yesterday from spilling a very hot cup of tea. FML
Today, after the most stressful two weeks of my life, I finally found a few minutes to sit down with a relaxing cup of tea. I went to take a sip, sneezed, smashed the mug into my nose, and dumped scalding hot tea all over my face and cleavage. FML
Today, I popped something straight out of the oven into my mouth. It burned my tongue instantly, but instead of spitting it out, I swallowed. I felt it burning all the way down. Now I can’t eat solid food or drink hot drinks. FML
Today, while cooking, I managed to burn my finger. I quickly turned the tap on and ran my finger under cold water, but apparently someone had just used the hot tap, because boiling water flooded out onto my nicely scalded finger. FML
Today, as I was trying to remove my lunch from the hot oven tray, my finger brushed against the metal for a moment, and I instinctively put it in my mouth. I burnt my tongue, on my finger. I didn't realize that was possible. FML
Today, I was making some tea for my colleagues when I accidentally dropped the tea bag into my cup of coffee. I thought, "Why not?" and took a sip. It tasted like a caffeinated botanical disaster, and the whole office got to enjoy me retch for 10 minutes. FML
Today, I have a cold. Trying to clear out my stuffy nose, I tried putting mouthwash in my nose. Thinking it was an awesome idea, I put some more in. I then starting screaming in pain due to the extreme burning in my nostrils. FML
Today, I went to take a drink from my water bottle while sitting in a quiet office with 5 coworkers. I squeezed too hard, sending a jet of water straight into my nose. My coworkers now think I need a sippy cup. FML
Today, I was walking out of Starbucks when I sneezed, causing coffee to burn my nose. I screamed, dropped it, and sent scorching coffee all over my legs, while dropping everything else I was holding. FML
Today, I got burned, all because the toaster scared me while I was holding a pot of boiling water. FML

Burnt nostrils. At least when you breathe, it smells like a nice cuppa tea!

why do people care so much about other people and their short and pointless comments just to be first? how do you know 1 wouldn't have commented "ouch" even if there were 200 comments before him, eh? ;)

ouch is right. it would be hard to go through one day with your mouth and nose in pain.

#92 So you were talking to your co-worker while sipping on some boiling soda and failed to notice you were placing the soda up against your lips while still burning hot, then to proceed on to drinking it and having it run through your nose to your comrade's amusement and as a result had your nose and inside of your mouth terribly injured. Yeah right, as if that could happen with soda.

did you remember to raise your pinky while you drank the tea? it's essential to do that so you can increase the plesure of drinking tea, wether burning hot or cold...(:

Boiled water, you idiot. Do you have any idea how much that would hurt?

Be glad it was water? As opposed to what? Boiling lava?

Ow! That sounds so painful :/ Lesson learned I guess?
CateXOX 0
What lesson was learned from this?- Not to make tea? Not to forget the temperature of your drinks? Not to laugh?

SugaryTears 0
why not?
CateXOX 0
14- Because OP forgot it was boiling hot. 32- Because there are obvious consequences like burnt nostrils.
