This is not the first time i have something stupid and unexplainable happening to me btw... No relevance with this particular thing, but still freaky. When i was 18 i woke up one morning and my eye hurt a bit. When i looked in the mirror, i saw it was a bit swollen. Two hours later i looked like a boxer who took a punch right on the eye, i had a completely swollen, black left eye.

I remember it was on a saturdaymorning, and the regular doctors don't work in the weekends, so off i went to the hospital. When i got there, i had one hell of a time trying to convince the doc that i didn't get punched in the face, and that it came out of nowhere, just like that. He had this arrogant grin on his face, and he didn't believe one word of what i said to him, and eventually i told him to go @#c* himself, and i went to another hospital to see another doc with a bit more common sense. In the end he gave me a bottle of liquid eyecleaner and a little plastic cup, in which the stuff goes. You then put a bit of the fluid in the cup, and press the cup to your eyesocket, while holding your head backwards. Then you blink a couple of times so the fluid makes contact with your eye, and repeat that several times a day.

I had a shiner for almost a week, and i still haven't got a clue where it came from. It never came back, but it still boggles my mind sometimes.

Edit: Edited no less than 4 times because of typos. Apparently there's something wrong with my fingers too.
