    A bat being active during the day and colliding with you is very abnormal behavior. If rabies exists where you are (this includes the UK for bats) see a doctor ASAP. Like, I wouldn’t go to bed without doing it. It’s possible for you to be bitten without feeling it because of how small they are, and disorientation is a sign of rabies in bats.

    It’s totally fixable even if it did have rabies and bite you, you just have to go get a (normal, NOT in the stomach) post-exposure shot.

          I mean, on the one hand, yes. But, we just missed out on the opportunity to relive the carbon monoxide Reddit saga in real time!

          Edit: with a less happy ending, though.
