And people say MY nose piercing would hurt...

I'm sitting at work right now listening to the Rush Limbaugh show (don't judge me--my boss maintains complete right-wing control of the radio) and during one of the news briefs, I just heard the most bizarre tidbit. A grown man went into the doctor's office and walked out holding a nail in his hand.

Know where the nail was? In his nose.
Know how long it'd been there? Nearly 30 years.
Know why he went to the doctor in the first place? To get an MRI.

Not even for the nail in his nose; he didn't even know it was there! While he was laying down for the MRI, he felt a pain in his head (makes sense considering an MRI machine is basically a big magnet). So they pulled him out and found a nail in his nose.

A NAIL in his NOSE! And it had been there for nearly 30 years! How do you not notice something like that??? Or maybe the better question would be: how did it get up there in the first place???

In situations like this, there is really only one thing you can say:
What?!?!?!?!
