TIFU by taking a MacBook to the face
So this just happened, and my nose is still throbbing.
I was lying in bed, MacBook open on my lap, just getting cozy. The lights were still on, so I reached over to turn them off, then leaned back to relax. Big mistake.
My laptop launched itself straight into my face like it had unfinished business. The top edge of the screen made direct, unholy contact with my nose, and I absolutely ate it. Like, full force, zero mercy, straight to the cartilage.
Immediately, blood starts gushing everywheree. My hands are covered, my bedsheets are ruined, and I’m just sitting there in shock, trying to process how my own laptop just tried to assassinate me. The pain was severe, sharp, and throbbing, radiating through my entire face like I had just been smacked by a MacBook-wielding ghost.
After the bleeding finally stopped, I realized things felt off. My nose is swollen and bruised, but worse—I think I now have a deviated septum. Breathing feels weird on one side, and my cartilage is way looser than before. If I move it slightly, it feels unnervingly wobbly, which I’m pretty sure isn’t how noses are supposed to work.
So yeah, I might have broken my nose, or at least messed it up permanently. All because my laptop decided to yeet itself into my face.
TL;DR: Turned off the lights, leaned back, and my MacBook absolutely obliterated my nose. Now I might have a deviated septum and a newfound distrust of technology.
