My band buddies have been asking me if a spoon can stick to my implant, But i have tried it before and didn't work very well. But hair pins have sticked to my implant. What are some funny things that sticked to your implant??

Lissa · 10-25-2009, 04:07 PM

coins, paperclips and it has stuck to the car door and my umbrella

Bottesini · 10-25-2009, 04:09 PM

I would think it would have to be magnetic to stick?

Anybody with CI. I think I my be mixed up in my science. I guess anything metal will stick to a magnet.

Vivie · 10-26-2009, 05:48 PM

Fridge magnets.I often use them to decorate my coil when I'm in a mood to do so..have some pretty ones.

also the pins and needles for sewing.basically anything that is metal.

I have a friend who stuck a beer bottle cap on his wife's CI at a party. She ran away bawling.

LoL! I saw the beer bottle cap on coil from my friend's coil magnet for decorate. That's cool! It's doesn't that hurt.

Pinky · 10-26-2009, 06:49 PM

I tried to put dime coin on my coil magnet. It's not working. I tried to put beer bottle caps on but it's not fit. :-( I thinking about use nylon hammer on caps to flat to see if it's work.

Yeah! I saw it on your facebook photo. Is that hurt?? I tried to put dime coin on my coil but it's not working. I felt funny and not stick it.

overthepond · 10-26-2009, 07:21 PM

Nothing, no feelings at all and most certainly doesn't hurt at all!... it's just the magnet, no transmission is affected.

neecy · 10-27-2009, 03:13 AM

Not intentionally, I was getting milk out of a cooler at the store and my magnet stuck to the metal frame and pulled away as I went to close the door!

Phi4Sius · 10-27-2009, 03:14 AM

Oh dear - I see I have plenty of amusing things to look forward to for my CI!!

Pinky · 10-28-2009, 03:49 PM

I remember my first CI in 2 days. It was accident fall off and stick on my blackberry's magnet and my mom's new laptop. I was like oh shit and pulled it out. Whew! I think it's not affect on my CI.

A dime won't stick because it's a different kind of metal. This applies to American coins, not foreign coins. Most Canadian coins are affected by magnets, but not American coins.

I still have Canadian coins at my mom's. I will try it. My grandma and my family collected the foreign coins. They have British, French, German, Italian, Mexico, and more. They traveled to Europe, Caribbean, and some Asian.

I didn't realize that American coins can't affect the magnet.

overthepond · 10-29-2009, 06:46 PM

I had bit of silly moment, Was at Ikea today, I tested the magnet strength of the spoons to see which one would STICK on my implant. It sent my mum in hysterics and onlookers were looking wondering WTF i am doing or what the hell i have on my head!!!

SCBassist · 10-30-2009, 07:17 AM

I've had my CI jump over to my dog's choke chain while giving him a bath, then he shook all that water towards the CI - just glad it is splash proof!

deafskeptic · 10-30-2009, 08:01 AM

I can't get a dime to stick to my CI coil. However my nail file certainly sticks to it.

I've had my CI stick to the magnets on my parents' fridge. ( I have no magnets at home.) I've had it stick to my car door

and I've had pins and needles stick to it. It'll stick to my PC's monitor.

hahahaha guys, i read all of the comments. I'm interested that coins can stick to implants. This week at my school we had spirit week. and on Wednesday was wacky Wednesday and guess what i did with my implant? I put like barrettes on my implants, i tried making it stand up like the picture in this topic, but it didn't work, but alot of people were laughing really hard about my implant. And my friend in my section of the band heard about my comment on how i should've put a coke bottle cap on my implant and he replied; "OMG you totally should've done that! it would be SWEET!!!" I just laughed after he said that. Keep the funny stories coming!!
