The Perils of Eating or Drinking.

[do1you9love?]

Glad to know I'm in good company. I hate the throat thing when drinking soda. Sounds like lots of us have it, so why can't we figure out why???

Bit my fingers, cheeks (as Frank so helpfully pointed out, yes the mouth ones). Burnt tongue and roof of mouth. And once as a kid, drinking a soda from a glass bottle in a moving boat. Boat bounced and I chipped my front tooth. Ouch! Dumb kid!

I love Mickey D's french fries but I don't eat them often. One time I decided to indulge and picked up an order. I grabbed several and in my haste/hunger I bit the he11 out of my finger. I. Bit. My. Finger. (How does one bite their own finger eating? It takes a special kind of goofy to accomplish that.)

Peace.

I do apologise Sigmund, but that is hilarious

I have taken a layer off the roof of my mouth a few times with scalding hot tea or soup. I also broke my tooth on - of all things - a soft mint. Oh and have you ever inhaled a smal crumb of toast or crisps (potato chips)? that is a nightmare, by the time you've coughed your throat dry and sore, your eyes are pissing water, which become red and sore from wiping them.

 

[Grandpa]

Scalding liquid in the mouth. Ouch.

Biting cheek or tongue. Ouch.

Like the Giant says, a geyser of hot coffee in the car. That's when I learned when you have a disposable cup, you hold it at the bottom, not at the top, where it easily squeezes in, pops that top right off, and slides right out of your hand. Ouch.

I've related my vomit stories elsewhere. No more Chinese buffets in Wyoming. No more raw oysters at a seafood buffet. In fact, unless I see them bring the food out and serve myself right away, I think I'll just avoid buffets altogether.

I'm sure I've stabbed myself with a fork or sliced myself with a knife when just trying to sit and eat quietly. But causing harm to myself when doing something innocuous isn't a particularly rare or notable thing for me.

I had a coworker that was eating Doritos. He got one lodged in his tongue and it had to have severe medical attention. It would not stop bleeding.

Holy crap. I puked a piece of dorito out my nose when I was a kid - I had a stomach virus and that's the last thing I ate before doom set in. It's been about 38 years since I've had a dorito.

 

[Mr Nobody]

Yep. That'd put you off Doritos for sure. It might even have put me off them...

Just thought of another one, when eating certain sweets such as cola cubes or rhubarb and custard they end up cutting my tongue to bits which is very unpleasant.

Am I the only one totally lost on what cola cubes and rhubarb custard are? And why would they cut your tongue to bits.. I am very afraid of this thread now.

I had this the other night along with some spotted dick............

 

[not_nadine]

Ok, now... that made my browser turn itself off in safe mode.

I can't decide how to feel about this. It looks kind of tasty, but all the words on the box really make my stomach turn. Mr. Brains with extra sauce. No thank you..

 

[not_nadine]

Well, maybe this will turn yer taste buds Hipmama.

 

[blunthead]

...fresh hot coffee-propped in crotch, lid popped off...this caffeine geyser erupted all over "Old Faithful"....

So, how much did McDonald's settle with you for?

I've hurt my other cheeks, too. Habaneros. Enough said.

 

[not_nadine]

I grew em.. I ate them.. but mostly froze them.. Not like this... I was afraid of the bag I put them in.

Years ago I was with some friends at a breakfast place, and I drank a huge cup of orange juice. A bit later, as we were getting into the car, I leaned forward funny and I could feel the OJ coming back. I didn't want to throw up in my friend's car, so I clamped my mouth shut. That doesn't work, and by trying to stop it I only made things much, much worse.

Instead of just simply vomiting in her car, I vomited THROUGH MY NOSE in her car. Because the only thing more disgusting than puke is puke that's been run through the booger factory...

The combination of citric acid and stomach acid shooting through my sinuses was excruciating. Before I even realized what I was doing, I pulled my shirt off and used it to try to blow the rest of the goo out, and wipe my face.

I wish I could have been sitting at a booth inside and watching it all out the window. A young, seemingly normal girl sputters orange liquid out her nose, and then strips while screaming and crying and of course, apologizing for messing up the car....

We're still friends, over 20 years later.

Jen, you know I love you...



I could see that entire scenario.

Peace.

Hi Arista!

I stabbed the roof of my mouth eating these

The salt and salsa added to the experience of stabbing and burning.

Thank you.

Peace.

Just a bit of trivia. I once won 50 bucks in the Monopoly game. I had to get two places, forget which ones they were.
