If I go to the event horizon, I get spaghettified right? How does that not mean I am being spaghettified (ever so slightly) right now?

You get spaghettified when passing through the event horizon of a black hole because the force of gravity is dependent on your distance from the black hole. The parts of your body closer to the black hole experiences much stronger gravity than the parts of your body further from the black hole. The difference between the 2 are strong enough to rip the chemical bonds that hold your body together apart. The difference in the forces of gravity between your feet and your head while standing on earth can’t be measured by any scale you can buy off the shelf.
