Ouch! We Wish It Had Been a Booger

I HAVE A NOSE RING and sometimes the post sticks out. I try and make sure it doesn’t because it looks like a booger. So, here I am measuring a lady for a PAL and she licks her thumb and tries to grab what she thinks is the booger. She yanks so hard, it pulls the stud through my nose! My eyes watered and my nose started to bleed. She said her motherly instinct kicked in and she just did it. – Cas Flores, Optician, shared on Opticians on Facebook
