Anyone ever get splashed in the face with 100LL while refueling at a
self-serve pump?

Today, I joined the nitwit club and was rewarded for my refueling
complacency with a cereal bowl-sized volume of 100LL splashed directly
in the face. At least I was wearing sunglasses, which kept most of the
fuel out of my eyes.

A true pilot wears 100LL cologne.

How did it happen? I self-fuel frequently, and would like to avoid
the same thing.
