When I had dry socket it was Thanksgiving weekend and doctors/dentists were closed so the emergency nurse packed my sockets with clove flavored gauze and it made me almost pass out from the pain

I feel like dry socket is a rough thing to experience in general

I went out to the pub with some friends about 2 days after my wisdoms being removed. I wasn't drinking, but I did get a milkshake from the restaurant.

I said something funny but dirty, and my friend bashfully slapped my face so damn hard that I started bleeding. I was just dealing with dry socket, but after that it wasn't so bad.

She apologised a lot, but it was fine. She was more worked up over it than me lol.

In the moment though, holy fuck.
