Today, we had a fish fry for Father's Day. I ended up getting a fish bone lodged in my tonsil, and I had to rush to the bathroom to pull it out. I threw up three times in the process and still didn't manage to get the bone out. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I got a one-inch fish bone stuck in my throat. I went to the doctor, who claimed he couldn't see the long white thing embedded next to my tonsil. He charged me $70, and told me to eat some bread. I had to pull it out myself with a pair of tweezers. FML
Today, my dad and I went fishing. We both got a bite, but when we went to reel it in, both our hooks were in the catfish's mouth. He pushed me in the mud and took my hook out its mouth so he could say he caught it. FML
Today, I wasn't feeling well at work. While I was in the bathroom losing my lunch, a very large piece of food came up. The resulting splash of toilet water went straight up into my mouth. FML
Today, I got my wisdom teeth out. Afterwards, my parents thought it would be a great idea to have my favourite meal. I got to watch them enjoy it. FML
Today, I got home from the hospital. Yesterday was my birthday, and I got a piece of steak caught in my lower esophagus, resulting in a trip to the ER and an overnight stay so they could put me under and fish it out. I’m not allowed meat for a month while they find out what caused it. FML
Today, I woke up from a great night of camping and fishing all night long with my fiancee, only to find my stringer of fish being eaten by a water moccasin snake. My dad's been asking for a fish fry for two weeks now. FML
Took, I took my son fishing. We ended the night at the ER. FML
Today, I spent hours trying to get a piece of food out of my two front teeth. I didn't have anything I could use, until I went out to dinner and got a toothpick. I finally got the food out of teeth. The toothpick broke. Now the tip of the toothpick is stuck in my teeth. FML
Today, I attended my first meeting with my bosses. For lunch we went to a restaurant. I choked on a piece of meat and couldn't breathe anymore. I had to take that piece of meat out of my throat with my fingers, and then put it back on my plate all chewed up. FML
Today, I went out to lunch on my break. When I got back to work, I noticed I had something in my teeth. After trying to get it out with my tongue, I finally went to my car for some floss. I ended up pulling a 4 inch pube out of my back teeth. It certainly wasn't mine. FML

I've had an eel bone lodged in the back of my throat that merited a hospital visit. Hopefully, this gets resolved before it reaches that stage...

Fish fry for Father's Day? I'm afraid the alliterative compulsions that plague your mind are chronic, but they CAN be treated with self discipline and medication. Abhorrent alliteration always ails anyone as—NO! Bad, Tripartita! Bad!

I had a dream once about eating a raw fish and getting the bone stuck in my throat before no joke. If this is anything like my dream was, I'm sincerely sorry OP.

So you have a throat boner don't you?

It sounds better if you say that OP is deep throating a bone...

Agreed, I have once gotten something stuck inside one of my tonsils before and when I went to take it out it tore my tonsil, which got infected. (And then the meds they gave me for it gave me an allergic reaction) And since then I've had many issues with that tonsil.

If you can't get it out try to eat bread or something that can push it through your throat.

I don't get why it down voted crackers and bread really works they break it down helped me so many times when I have food stuck

Not sure how the two of you are still kickin, but it's generally not a good idea to keep putting food in your mouth when something is lodged in your throat.

Your Doctor being someone on FML? Because if their name isn't Doc Bastard, I wouldn't necessarily trust them on this site.

When I was a kid and we got a fish bone stuck in the back of our throats we ate soft white bread to push it out.
