Miscellaneous: Today, I was putting red nail polish on my nails and put a newspaper...

By Anonymous - 19/04/2011 03:44 - United Kingdom

Today, I was putting red nail polish on my nails and put a newspaper on the table to make sure that it didn't spill. I later discovered the nail polish made the newspaper stick to the table. I scrubbed nail polish remover on it, thinking it would help but instead bleached the table. FML

Today, I was in a rush, so I was removing my nail polish while using the toilet. Everything was going fine, until I used the toilet paper in my hand to wipe. It was covered in nail polish remover. It still burns. FML

Today, I learnt that nail polish remover is, in fact, VERY flammable. And I learnt it the hard way. FML

Today, I dropped some food on the floor and picked it back up, took a bite, and quickly realised it had toenail cuttings in it. I never cut my toenails in my dining room. FML

Today, I was with a wedding party getting manicures. I absentmindedly used a freshly-painted nail to pick my nose and ended up with two beauticians scraping indestructible bright red gel varnish out of my left nostril with acetone soaked q-tips, while everyone sat waiting in complete silence. FML

On the runs

Today, I did the best at-home manicure I’ve ever had. I took my time and it looked like it was done professionally. As soon as I put on the top coat and waited for it to dry, my stomach rumbled and I had to run to take a dump. The polish smeared everywhere, ruining the whole thing. FML

Today, I painted my nails in the car. After I finished, I stuck my hands out the window to let them dry. When I pulled my hands back in there were live bugs stuck in my nail polish. FML

Today, I found out that you can ruin a $500 computer with a few stray drops of 100% acetone nail polish remover on the keyboard. FML

Great start

Today, on the first day of my nanny job, I wanted to impress my employers with how trustworthy and responsible I am. During the sixty seconds that I went to pee, the two-year-old found a black Sharpie and scribbled all over the wall. Nail polish remover made it ten times worse. FML

Today, I accidentally used wood stain instead of hairspray. Surprisingly, it doesn't come out that easily. FML

You're an idiot. 1. Newspaper will not prevent a spill. 2. Discovering the stuck newspaper later means you spilled it and left it. 3. Of course nail polish remover will remove the finish on furniture (it doesn't bleach it). I don't understand how people can be so stupid.

I guess I just don't understand how you could be THAT messy while painting your nails. I'm terrible at it, but at most I get only a few tiny speckles on the surface I use.

I have to say ydi, because how freaking sloppy are you that you got enough polish on the paper to make it stick to the table? You clearly should not be around nail polish or sharp things.

did you ever notice that acetone is a strong chemical that eats through the stuff you paint on your nails? ... oh, but I'm shocked it would also eat through the finish/ paint on your table, that doesn't make sense!
