The Perils of Eating or Drinking.

[Sigmund]

Hola!

May all be well or on the mend.

Have you ever hurt yourself either eating or drinking?

Anyone?...Anyone? *crickets chirping*

This has happened to me several times:

I'm chugging a bottle of water or can of soda and it's soooo good until...suddenly it feels like I'm swallowing razor blades. Have mercy, that hurts. (I tried to Google it. Nothing.)

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.)

Please share your eating/drinking accidents.

Peace.

OMGawd! I need to get my eyes checked! (thread title)

I know the swallowing razor blades feeling from drinking pop.

My youngest sister in law, at holiday dinners, would always stick warm dinner rolls on her finger. She has bitten her finger often.

I can't think of any time I hurt myself (other than the razor blade and pop thing), but if I am dressed and ready to go somewhere, it is guaranteed that I will develop a hole in my chin and spill all over myself and have to change. Guar-an-TEED!

Maybe everyone has frozen his brain drinking a Slurpee too fast. That hurts as hell. I don't think it causes actual physiological damage, but the thread doesn't require that "hurt" necessarily means hurt so badly; nevertheless, on two occasions a doctor has required I quit drinking alcohol for a month or so due to my having elevated liver enzymes. Both docs told me there was no evidence of long-term liver damage, thank goodness.

I've accidentally bitten my lip more times than I can count, as well as the insides of my cheeks (mouth ones), and who hasn't burned the roof of his mouth on a slice of pizza?

The perils of eating or drinking...are outweighed by the perils of not eating or drinking.

Sorry...
Yep, I've bitten the end of my own finger before now. And the inside of my cheek and the end of my tongue. Burnt the roof of my gob on a slice of pizza? Check. I've also burnt my lips on hot coffee. The worst was probably when I took a swig, coughed as I started to swallow, and ended up with newly-made - therefore pretty damn hot - coffee spurting out of my nose. That hurt a lot.

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.

Oh, how many times have I bit my finger or my tongue... Too many, believe me And when I drink I often swallow the wrong way and start coughing, especially if I think of something funny at the time

This is a movie, right?

Yep bitten tongue and inside of cheeks, burnt roof of mouth with something very hot. Also had when swallowing it feels like it's going down a tube it shouldn't be going down and hurts like hell.

 

[Out of Order]

Eating? No.
Drinking? I don't remember................

 

[arista]

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.

 

[pegasus216]

Swallowed the wrong way.
Right after my stay in the hospital of my blood sugar being so high, I took the kids out to dinner to show my appreciation of them being there for me. My throat was acting weird back then, and I threw up in the napkins. It was a fancy restaurant, and I had prime rib, and it all came back up. My daughter got me to the bathroom, and I threw up some more in there. My throat made the strangest noise when that happened.

as well as the insides of my cheeks (mouth ones)

I'm so glad you clarified this -

Jen, I think Flake and I are watching out that window dying laughing. Tears even. Puke, strip, blow your nose. Sexy, baby.
