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

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?

Ummmmm...no. I don't think I have ever done this. But, I have miscalculated where the straw was before and had it stab me in the gum or the roof of my mouth. I don't think that's as painful as stabbing my brain, but it wasn't fun.

stabbing the brain isn't nearly as painful as it sounds, dfn12968. Stabbing your mouth is painful. Ouch!

I have never poked a eye with one, but i did feel like i had made a new nostril from the inside of my upper lip once. I'm not sure exactly what i did, but i think it had something to do with forgetting to hold my head up. No one saw it, i just held my face for awhile and hoped no one would notice my discomfort.

I have had straws up my nose though, one in each nostril, it was not an accident though.

Sorry to hear that...that never happend to me, the closest i got is when i'm sometimes drinking in a different cup than the one i regularly use and if it's higher i miscalculate and hit my lip when i'm gonna drink D:
Also when i try to drink with a straw without looking i often FAIL and hit my upper lip or side of lip, or find that the straw has moved, because it floats around.
None saw this when it happend:P it'd have been pretty hilarious/embarassing, but i'm a little more self aware when im around people so i dunno if it'd happen:)

Eight months ago lol. I wonder if I've already answered this under "cremechese."

Well I don't remember stabbing my brain but I'm sure I've put my eye out lots. Especially when wearing contact lenses and not glasses. At least glasses can help a bit with eyeball protection. I've also snorted bubbly drinks up my snout and into my sinuses and that hurts.
