Today, I discovered that my mother uses my eyebrow tweezers to pull ticks off the dog. She also hasn't figured out that just dipping the tweezers in alcohol doesn't automatically sterilize them. Especially if there is icky dog hair still stuck on. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I found out that my mom uses my incredibly expensive conditioner to wash her two dogs every single weekend. No wonder they smell so good. FML
Today, I walked into the living room to find my boyfriend plucking his ball hairs with the same tweezers I use for my eyebrows. FML
Today, I picked my dog up and nibbled her ear. On the tip of her ear was a large tick, which burst, sending blood into my mouth. FML
Today, my mom has a habit of trying to pull out what she thinks are loose hairs in my beard. My beard hairs are actually just really, really long, not falling off. She'll confidently yank one that she thinks isn't attached, causing a sharp pain until she realizes it's attached. I don't know how to make her stop. FML
Today, I discovered that my mom bought roll on stick glue that looks quite a bit like deodorant. It was early in the morning and I was groggy. Long story short, I had to cut every one of my pit hairs. FML
Today, I found out my mum has been using my electric shaver for several months to shave her pubes and underarms. FML
Today, in front of my friends, my mom came after me with a pair of tweezers exclaiming, "There's just a couple of hairs on your chin that need to be plucked." I'm a 14 year-old girl. FML
Today, I found out my mother cleans the dishes with bathroom cleaning chemicals. She doesn't see anything wrong with this. FML
Today, I had to pry my sister's used tampon out from between my dog's jaws. FML
Today, I thought it would be a good idea to use my epilator on my eyebrows. Needless to say I now have the eyebrow equivalent of a comb-over. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Actually, alcohol will kill most bacteria, so you're wrong. But I agree that it's sick that she's using them in the first place, and going through the trouble of sterilizing them without removing the hair. There's tweezers at Walgreen's for a dollar and they work just fine on my eyebrows... if you're not a caveman, it shouldn't be a big deal to get a new one (at least she wasn't using your hairbrush on the dog and GIVING you ticks).

Most dogs have a pretty good immune system. A simple dip in alcohol is usually enough before removing ticks.

This is a stupid complaint and I'm surprised how people agree with it. Firstly, if you pull a tick off a dog, it doesn't magically hide on the tweezers; you can see it and dispose of it (burn it) immediately. Secondly, alcohol does sterilize bacteria and pathogens, although if you draw blood while pulling a tick then you're just doing it wrong anyway. Lastly, IT'S JUST ******* DOG HAIR!!! Get over it already.

You deserve it because you used the word icky.

You're lucky your dog isn't dead if your mum is constantly removing ticks from it, particularly when that's not the best method for removing them. Often you can leave the head behind which carries the poison. And really, 'icky dog hair'?? Are you five??

actually, it does sterilize them. Hair doesn't carry any communicable diseases, meaning that it's just aesthetically gross, suck it up
