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).

Who says she uses the tweezers for her eyebrows? Maybe she uses it for her pubes? So what if she has ticks in her pubes? Shave half of the pubes off, and the other half, light it on fire. The ticks that run to the other side, you can burn with a magnifying glass.

tweezing pubes sounds OCD and painful

Today, I had great sex with a woman with no pubic hair. She plucks it all out with tweezers because she hates razor-burn. Her family also uses the same tweezers to pull ticks off the family dog. FML

I guess it would depend in how hairy you were but I still couldn't imagine pulling hairs off my balls one by one.

Isopropyl alcohol should kill any ticks left on the tweezers. In the rare chance they survived ticks will not stay on cold metal tweezers they will search out a new host so if you do have ticks they're likely not on your eyebrows

wh-what??? Ticks are pretty noticeable on small objects like tweezers..... i believe the OP is talking bout the germs that the tick and/or the dog might have been carrying.....
