Today, I woke up hungover and thirsty, I found a glass of water next to the sink, filled it up with more water, chugged it and went back to bed. I woke up an hour later to my best friend telling me she thought she lost her contacts. They were in a glass next to the sink. I ate her contacts. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I woke up and put my contacts in. It appears that I got drunk enough last night that instead of soaking my contacts in contact solution, I used mouthwash. FML
Today, after a big house party the night before, I woke up with a dry mouth and a pounding hangover. I took a swig from a cup I'd left on my bedside table the night before, thinking it was water. Nope; it was vodka. FML
Today, I woke up soaked in water. It seems at some point in the middle of the night, I woke up thirsty and opened the water bottle I keep on my nightstand. I managed to drink a little, but it seems I didn't manage to put the cap back on before losing consciousness again. FML
Today, upon waking up, I took a sip on what I thought was a cup of water on my nightstand. I quickly discovered it was my roommate's cup of used mouthwash which she was too lazy to throw out the night before. FML
Today, I woke up with a hangover and a pounding headache and tried to take an ibuprofen with a glass of water. I missed my mouth and threw the pill directly into my eye. FML
Today, I woke up so hungover that when I went to the bathroom and caught sight of myself in the mirror, I screamed, slipped backwards, and smashed my head against the rim of my bathtub. FML
Today, the alarm on my phone went off. I picked it up, hit snooze, and dropped it back on my desk without looking. I woke up an hour later to find that I had dropped it directly in a full glass of water. FML
Today, I woke up in the shower at my coworker's house, with my clothes on and soaking wet. Apparently, the night before I drank too much and punched my best friend. The sad part is, I passed out on the couch, but somehow ended up in the shower, facing the wrong way. FML
Today, I went to get a facial. I forgot my contact case so I put them into paper cup. My beautician thought it was leftover water from someone else, and threw my only pair of vision aid away. I scuttled home half blind. FML
Today, I woke up extremely hungover. I couldn't find my car keys so I went out to my car to see if I had locked them inside. I walked back to the door of my apartment barefoot and empty handed, only to find that I had locked myself out of the apartment. FML

I would never drink out of a glass that already was filled with water, especially after a night of drinking with no way to know what the glass contains other than water. Is it normal to even put contacts in a glass of water? I thought that you were only supposed to put them in their containers with the saline solution.

i wear contacts....ur not supposed to put them in water...because they swell. well, it depends on the type she uses, but most contacts swell in water, that's why you use solution...unless you drank solution, then you should have known. and who doesn't keep their contacts in a case, that's really disgusting, and not to mention if it gets dirty, and infects your eye, you could go blind. i think you did her a favor by drinking them, saved her from going blind. just consider it as taking on for the team. :p

Made me laugh, =p. To the ppl who are like, "WHY would you put your contacts in a glass of water; you can't tell which is which," why don't you read up on that shit instead of assuming dumb logistics. If ppl have no choice and want to keep their contacts, they stick them in as clean a liquid they can get. What do you think they're going to do? Leave them sitting on a napkin? And ffs, it's not that hard to figure out which contact goes in which eye. If you see better with one combo (and there are ONLY TWO combos), process of elimination.

Why would you be in a situation where you have no choice but to use water? You always have the choice of throwing them out. If you wear contacts and can't plan in advance making sure you have your container, and still insist on not disposing of them then you deserve to go blind anyway. Anyone risking (even if the risk is small) permenently damaging their eye sight to save their lenses is either lacking in an appreciation for their eyesight or has something wrong with their mind.

I've put my contacts in a glass of water before. Not overnight but for a couple of hours while I was at work and my eyes were irritated. I didn't have my glasses with me and needed to see to get home so I couldn't just toss the contacts but didn't have solution either. I've also used water to clean contacts if they've popped out and I need to put one back in. It may not be the smartest move but it works. I have the same prescription for both eyes so it doesn't overly matter to keep them straight.

No, you technically DRANK her contacts. And does this remind anyone else of that Family Guy episode with the pie? "Can you feel me inside you, Brian?"

Duuuuuuuuuude, she needs to get a proper case and some solution for her contacts rather than letting them sit in a glass of water! That can't be good for her lenses, her eyes or your stomach ;)

Okay your eye's can get infected for sleeping with them in , and you just clean them out with the solution at home (really well) And they are fine . And not everyone has a different perscription for each eye. I would put them in water instead of sleeping with them in i would rather my eye NOT be infected. Fwi, When your hungover you don't care what your drinking/eating Plus its not THAT gross . Ive herd worse.
