Today, my little brother learned that breaking a glow stick and emptying it into someone's eyes does not help them see in the dark. It's a good lesson, I just wish he hadn't used my eyes to learn it. The doctor says the burning feeling should go away in 3 or 4 days. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my brother thought it would be hilarious to put vinegar in my contact solution. I took my contacts out hours ago and my eyes still burn. FML
Today, my younger brother decided it would be funny to put rubbing alcohol in my contact lens case while I had them soaking overnight. I didn't realize this until I put the first one in. FML
Today, I accidentally poked myself in the left eye. As I sat there in pain, my 9-year-old nephew, who we think has OCD, decided to help out by poking me in the right eye. FML
Today, I woke up with pink eye. My mom tried to help by putting drops in. It started burning like hell; she didn't understand why. It turns out she was putting ear drops in my eye. FML
Today, my day started with me peeing in my own face. My eye still burns. FML
Today, I got a really bad sunburn. On my eyelids. Who knew blinking could be so painful? FML
Today, I attended my wife's cousins wedding. While trying to help struggling teens with fireworks, I got shot in the eye by a commercial-grade firework. I spent the rest of the night in the ER, then headed to see the eye doctor. I have about 75% of loss of vision. Hopefully it's not permanent. FML
Today, my idiot kid brother set my shirt on fire with a magnifying glass while I was taking a nap outside. FML
Today, my brother asked me if I wanted to see a magic trick. I stupidly said yes and now have a black eye from where he punched me. My dad thinks it's hilarious and my mum says he didn't know any better. He's 13. FML
Today, I was roasting marshmallows around a campfire when mine burst into flames. I instinctively shook the stick to get it to go out. The flaming marshmallow then catapulted straight into my eye, burning my whole eyelid. FML

how did he get it in your eye without you stoping him?

He was probably asleep and his brother pried his eyelids open and poured it in. Obviously he wouldn't LET him do it if he was conscious.

There's a reason glow sticks are not meant as a toy for small children. However, that's probably something for your parents to watch over. FYL indeed, that must hurt like hell.

FYL..he should've tried it on his own eye. THEN he'd actually learn his lesson

and what lesson have we learned now kids? you MUST have seen him coming with a green looking goo in his hands, so therefore, since you didn't stop him, YDI. sorry, but true.

Maybe he didn't see him coming. Maybe his brother caught him by surprise or something, like #31 said.

oh, well I guess so. lol I woulda just shoved him offa me. I guess that's just a sibling habit for me. I kinda thunk it was still a YDI though.

well it's not necessarily a ydi. op could have been sleeping at the time, and any kid could have opened his eyes lids. I don't think op voluntarily let his brother do that.
