Today, my friend convinced me that a staple gun doesn't work on skin. I decided to put this new piece of information to the test. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I taught my friend how to use a staple gun. She taught me how to get staples out of my hand. FML
Today, my roommate showed me that her pepper spray had expired, so I decided to test it on myself. It worked. FML
Today, I gave in and let my friend give me a makeover. She couldn't find my eyelash curler, but decided that if she used scissors lightly, it would work just the same. Needless to say, it did not work. FML
Today, I was trying to remove a temporary tattoo my friend put on my cheek. When warm water and soap didn't work, I tried something else. Just so you know, Mr. Clean Magic Erasers do not, in fact, work by magic. Tell that to the massive chemical burn covering half my face. FML
Today, I shat out a staple. FML
Today, I had an unbearable itch on my foot that I could not make go away with my nails, so I grabbed the stapler in my drawer to scratch it with. Bad idea. FML
Today, while joking with my coworkers about how I shouldn't be trusted with a stapler because I managed to accidentally staple my finger last week, I stapled another finger. FML
Today, I got several thumbtacks jabbed into me. Why? Because my cousin thought it would be a funny prank to superglue a bunch of thumbtacks to his nerf darts. My left forearm is still bleeding. FML
Today, I tried to impress my girlfriend by punching through a piece of old drywall karate kid-style. As it turns out, the drywall was actually a thin piece of concrete. I now have a busted hand and a girlfriend with a new story to tell all her friends. FML
Today, I accidentally stapled my finger to a piece of paper. It hurt, but I took it out and went to restaple it. I did it again. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Since you're not using it, would you donate your brain to science? They could use it to study the null-brain.

You should have tried it on your friend.

Did you know that the same thing is true for nail guns and skin, especially the skin on the head, it's thicker there

actually most of those guns have a safety right above (or below) where the staples exit, if that safety is not pressed against something they wont fire. soft tissue normally should not be hard enough to trigger that safety unless you press the gun against it really hard

Wow either you made this up to post an FML or you are a dumbass. Even if you don't have the brain to know that your friend lied you should know that anything sharp wouls pierce your skin...smoke another one because you had to have been high to fall for that.

Yeah, I've heard that skulls have become impervious to knifing in a recent evolutionary development that somehow spread through the entire general populace, you should try that out OP, I swear it's true.
