Today, it's the third day my ring won't come off. I used soap, vegetable oil, lotion, soaked my hand in ice to make the swelling of my finger to come down, and even my mom pulled so hard she dislocated my finger. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my hand was stung by a wasp. It has resulted in all my fingers being swollen and therefore much bigger than usual. I'm getting married tomorrow and there's no way I can get the ring on my finger. FML
Today, I went mud wrestling for the first time at a mud bog. After a day of fun and getting cleaned up, I realized that my mom's ring was no longer on my finger. FML
Today, as I peeled a now soggy Band-Aid off my finger, I discovered that in the dim light of yesterday evening, I had, with great anxiety, wrapped it around the wrong finger. FML
Today, my recently married friend took off her wedding ring to make bread. Being single and pathetic, I tried it on to see what it would look like. It got stuck on my finger. The ER doctor had to cut it off. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me that the ring I wear on my ring finger needs to come off because it's too big. It's too big because I bought it for him and he gave it back to me 6 months later. I've been wearing it on the same finger for the last 3 months with no problems. FML
Today, while playing with bubble wrap, I dislocated my thumb. FML
Today, I smashed my finger with a hammer. A finger on the hand holding the hammer. FML
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 noticed that the injury on my hand from three weeks ago no longer hurt. A while later, I accidentally slammed that same hand in a door. FML
Today, I accidentally dropped my engagement ring down a sewer. To my surprise, the sewer water was frozen and my ring sat on top. During my efforts to retrieve it, I had to watch as the ice slowly melted due to the warm day. The ring sank further and further until it was completely gone. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Why do you need to take it off? Just leave it there.

Rings can be quite a hassle. Don't believe me? There's a whole book series dedicated to one.

Take masking tape and, starting right next to your ring, wrap it around your entire finger. You can't leave it on very long, as it's going to cut off the blood circulation, but you should be able to get the ring off when your finger is wrapped. Otherwise, you'll have to cut the ring to get it off.

u actually need to heat the ring, not freeze it with ice.... i bet the ring is metal which means it shrinks/expands drastically depending on the temperature. it might expand enough that u can pull ur finger out with some oil
Alicia17C 2
but how can she heat it up enough for it to expand without burning her finger?

pretty sure she put ice on her finger to reduce the size of the flesh as opposed to expand the ring.

Cold causes metal to contract. That's why ice wouldn't work

while at the docter getting help for your dislocated finger, you should've asked for help about the ring. doi!

some people's fingers swell up when they get hot... my mum has to take one of her rings off in the summer or it gets stuck

This has nothing to do with gaining weight. My fingers swell up in the winter from arthritis....
