Have You Ever Stabbed Your Brain Through Your Nose with a Drinking Straw? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 92/100. Transdisc (18489)   ranked 975 out of 38,290 in life3 years ago

Have you ever been drinking something utilizing a straw and maybe forgot that you had a straw and tried to drink from the cup as if you didn't have a straw, and ended up shoving the straw up your nose and nearly stabbing your brain, or nearly put out your eye with the straw?

I have. Both the nose and the eye.

Which eye(s) have you nearly lost in this way?

Which nostril(s) have you stabbed in this way?

What were you drinking when this occurred?

Did anyone see this mishap? Did they laugh? Did you?

Were you watching me the other day....I stabbed my left eye. I was drinking a chocolate milk out of the carton with a straw...And yes someone saw me and had a good old chuckle, but my brother always laughs at me....


myLot reputation of 92/100. Transdisc (18489)   ranked 975 out of 38,290 in life  3 years ago

From what you've told me about your brother (the 28 year old one?) you've had plenty of laughs about him yourself! It does hurt when the straw stabs the eye, doesn't it?


myLot reputation of 97/100. Calais (7038)   ranked 1,032 out of 38,290 in life  3 years ago

We are always laughing at each other...now..When we were growing up it was always punch ups .

First of all it is impossible to stab your brain through your nose with a straw. LOL
I think it would be impossible to take an eye out with a straw, unless it was a pretty tough straw. LOL
Now now I have never done such a silly thing like that, I have seen the straw comming.


myLot reputation of 92/100. Transdisc (18489)   ranked 975 out of 38,290 in life  3 years ago

You're very lucky, or very skillful, teapotmom. A straw in the eye can be very painful, especially if the cornea is abrased.

Hey Trans! Yes I have done this before on more than occassion. I'm not too sure if anyone witnessed the faux pas. I usually stab my cheek or lip and feel so ridiculous ... where is my mind? The worst though is if a rubberband breaks and snaps right on your face. I think I did this a few times by accident, but one time at work I was streching one on purpose and it went right in my eyes at full force.**ouch** ... the sting of it all.


myLot reputation of 92/100. Transdisc (18489)   ranked 975 out of 38,290 in life  3 years ago

LOL (sorry). I should think that the only time a rubberband would break and snap in your face is if you were stretching it on purpose right in front of your eyes, bamabride!! hehehe

I'm glad you brought this up. There is a serious health hazard that is often times fatal related to this problem. Listen to what I'm about to tell you, it could save your life!

When you are driving an automobile on a bumpy high speed highway keep an eye out for long skinny fingered truck drivers picking their noses. When they hit a bump at high speed at just the wrong time they not only jab themselves in the brain, dying instantly, often times some other innocent motorist also then gets run over and dies.

While the government will deny this because they don't want the public to panic and demand the roads be fixed, it is true.


myLot reputation of 92/100. Transdisc (18489)   ranked 975 out of 38,290 in life  3 years ago

Thanks for this important, life saving update, redyellowblackdog!! I will keep my eyes peeled for this kind of dangerous activity. The life I save could be my own.

Yes this happened to me to. I forgot I had my straw in my glass,because I was busy talking and when I went to take a drink I poked the straw right on my upper eye bone. I just missed my eye.


myLot reputation of 92/100. Transdisc (18489)   ranked 975 out of 38,290 in life  3 years ago

I'm glad it missed your eye, babystar1. I've poked myself in the eye a couple of times like that and it really hurts!

I have almost lost both eyes in this very way several times but luckily have always been wearing glasses at these times! I have also stuck a straw up my nose (usually when drunk but luckily have done no damage to my brain as I do not have a very big brain and my aim is really bad! xxx
