Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

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 woke up in the middle of the night because I was thirsty. In my groggy state, I grabbed the first bottle of liquid I could find, opened it, and took a sip. It was nail polish remover. FML

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

Today, while I was doing my hair and makeup, I somehow managed to spray myself in the right eye with hairspray, and in the left eye with makeup setting spray. I left the house with two very bloodshot eyes. 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

How does that happen?
Today, I accidentally super-glued my hand to my face while trying to fix a broken pair of glasses. I yanked it off in a panic, taking a patch of my face along with it. FML

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 popped a zit and I went to put my acne medicine on it. It's in a clear bottle with a blue cap, just like the nearby nailpolish remover. I grabbed the wrong one. 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

I don't know how people don't check bottles before they use something. My nail polish remover and my makeup remover look NOTHING alike. It must've burned so bad. I hope you were seen by a doctor.

Last time I checked, nail polish remover smells AWFUL, and by the smell you can normally tell it's nail polish remover, you would think the OP might have been realized "Hmm..this doesnt smell right." and checked the label. Next time, double check before you put something on your eyes.

Haha, don't think this one is fake xD Last year my mom came home from a night out, exhasuted, and tried to take off her makeup with nail varnish remover. If the OP was tired, it's possible. Your eyes might've stung for a bit, but otherwise should've been okay if you rinsed them enough

hahaha!! it's not a fake, my mom has this blue face stuff that matches the nail polish remover quite nicely, so one night she accidentally used that to remove her make up... lmao
