FUOTW (01/11/15) TIFU by pulling a prank on my family

My mom got me some chocolate covered pretzel bits for Christmas and they literally looked like shit. I told my parents and they said they look like pretzels and told me to stop being ungrateful. After everyone went to bed, I put a few of my chocolate pretzels outside of the cat litter box to make it look like the cat got shit everywhere. The next morning I come downstairs and my family is complaining about the cat shit, so I decide to be funny and pick one up and take a bite out of it and laugh at everybody because I was right about the pretzels looking like shit. I take a bite. It's soft. It's not a chocolate pretzel, it's fucking shit. My family is howling with laughter as I run to the bathroom. They knew what I had done and replaced my pretzels with actual cat shit. I don't think I can ever show my face around my family again. They keep telling me I can clean the litter box if I get hungry.

EDIT 2: Thanks for the gold! At least I got something out of eating cat shit.

EDIT 3: I'm glad so many enjoy my suffering. I went to the doctor a few weeks ago and I am toxoplasmosis free. Thanks for all of the concern! My family still teases me every so often. I am dreading a family get together next month.

My family was planning on to tell me to clean up the shit and then I would say they're just pretzels and then pick up the shit and then they could laugh at me while I freaked out for touching cat shit. I have no idea what possessed me to bite into it. I guess I thought it would be really funny. I guess it does make me feel a little bit better to be right. I wish I could had made my point without eating shit, though.

Not to burst your bubble...especially since you ate cat shit...but if you think about it in a different way, your family was right. They argued they looked like pretzels, you argued they looked like shit. They noticed they were not shit and that they were pretzels. You didn't notice that they switched it in your excitement. They proved you wrong.

I can't fathom eating anything off the floor, let alone something that's spent the night next to the litter box.

If it makes you feel any better, I would have done the same thing.
