Oh Jesus...oh shit....I just rubbed Tabasco into my eyeball |
|
:nuke: :cry:
I was putting up x-mas lights; thought it might be a good idea to rub some onto the cords so I don't come home to a crispy doggie at some point...apparently I didn't get it all washed off. I had an eyelash or something in my eye, and...well, I am clearly the dumbest person ever.
I've put an ice cube in a washcloth on it, which is helping exactly none. I do however now have very refreshingly cool tears streaming down my face. x(

8. I once strained a muscle in my thigh |
|
Rubbed some Ben Gay on it but got just a little bit too high up the inner leg. If you know what I mean. It's still my definition of excruciating pain.

Deep Heat ... for muscle sprains ?
YEP ... definately know what you mean. I put some on after getting out the bath once - did the same - sprayed wild all down a thigh muscle and 5 seconds later dived back into the bath splashing cold water over the "Lower Half" for ages. There's no other pain like it !:

16. Milk helps cool the burn. Do like this person: |
|
Mr. Ilker Yilmaz, 28, of Istanbul, inspired to bring pride to Turkey by achieving a Guinness Book world record, decided to challenge Canadian Mark Moraal's 8.7-foot mark for squirting milk out of his eye. In October, exploiting what he called an anomaly in his tear gland, he sucked milk up his nose and pinched it 9.223 feet out of an eye socket in front of several witnesses and is now awaiting official recognition.

Water isn't much helping...when I eat hot food I usually use bread to calm the heat, although the thought of shoving a naan in my eye is less than appealing. I knew someone out there would have an idea. ;)

water does not work on breaking up the oily capsacim that makes it burn. Use either water with a VERY dilluted Dawn dish soap or try milk.

19. There's gotta be a cheaper and less delicious doggie repellent... |
|
...than Tabasco. x(
That said, I hope your poor little eye feels better. :*

24. My parrot was eating a dried hot pepper on my shoulder once... |
|
Then she noticed one of my eyelashes was out of place, so she kindly reached over to fix it...
I jumped up out of my chair screaming, and the parrot went flying.
She has also played a hot pepper trick on our dog. She likes to toss the dog little bits of monkey chow and stuff that are in her food, and our dog loves this. So the dog was eating stuff the parrot tossed down, eating all excitedly as dogs do, and the evil bird tossed down a pepper...
Our dog now carefully examines any food the parrot gives her.

27. Running Water - LOTS OF IT!!! |
|
I had a similar thing happen to me - I rubbed my eyes after cutting up some Jalopena peppers. Rinse your eye over and over again. Then go to the store and get a bottle of "artificial tears" eye drops.
I speak from personal experience.
