Today, some friends and I went to Cosmic Bowling where they have a blacklight. Everyone's teeth were glowing. Mine weren't. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I learned the hard way that my foundation shows up under a black light. At a black light party. No one told me until afterwards. Everyone took pictures. FML
Today, I discovered that my acne glows yellow and orange under black lights while in front of a wall of them at a club. FML
Today, I went bowling with some friends. After a few beers I was showing off spinning the ball around on the tip of my finger. One trip to the ER and two crushed nuts later, I've found that mixing alcohol and heavy shiny balls is not a good idea. FML
Today, I discovered that the medicated eye drops I have been taking to fight a mild eye infection show up under black lights when I walked into a party and the whole left side of my face was glowing. FML
Today, I went to a neon-themed party. Standing by the UV light, I looked down and realised my pad was glowing through my tights. FML
Today, I went to a concert. Knowing these concerts usually include a lot of black lights, I decided to wear a black T-shirt so I wouldn't glow. I was having a good time, but about halfway through I noticed someone pointing to my shoulder. I looked down to see my dandruff glowing. FML
Today, I went bowling. The guy at the lane next to us was bowling by himself and had a few of his own bowling balls, and he had one that looked like a yin-yang and it looked very cool spinning down the lane into the pins. Not really thinking, I casually said to him, "Hey, I like your balls." FML
Today, I went bowling with my friends. As I was about to take my turn, my friend came up behind me and yelled in my ear, "Don't mess up!" Startled, I dropped the ball on my foot. FML
Today, I took my girlfriend out bowling. The place was not only packed, but on my very first attempt, I stumbled and landed flat on my "sugarbuns" about 6 feet down the lane. Everyone pointed and laughed hysterically, including my girlfriend, who was on the floor almost in tears, enjoying my pain. FML
Today, I went for dinner and bowling with a woman I met online. The Mexican food was great but my bowels started feeling it during our first game. I slipped on the bowling lane and the impact of my ass hitting the ground made me shit myself. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

It means they have yellow teeth. YDI for: smoking/not brushing your teeth.

You know, they invented something a while back, what was it called again?.....Oh yeah, that's right, toothpaste. You should really look into it.

It means they don't use tooth whiteners or toothpaste containing it, which really aren't that great for your teeth anyway. It means they don't have any of the fluorescent additives that are i whiteners that will glow under blacklight. It doesn't mean their teeth are yellow or unclean. The cleanest and whitest teeth in the world aren't going to glow under blacklight if there no fluorescent additive from whiteners on them. If anything, it means they have healthier teeth than their friends because they're not stripping the enamel off their teeth.

whitening toothpaste doesn't work. It's not on your teeth long enough to whiten them.

#71 you don't have to be such a douche about it

#79 is totally right! It's better when your teeth don't glow under UV light...

#56, I brush 3 times a day (once after lunch) and have yellow teeth because of tea and coffee. You don't have to smoke not have whitened teeth

Why? So his teeth can glow unnaturally on the rare occasion he goes Cosmic Bowling as well?

Unnaturally? Its a black light; therefore, white things glow. If his teeth didn't glow, then they weren't white. Do you find the look of yellow teeth attractive? Nothing agaisnt you if you do, but the norm is white, just sayin.
Twinklestar 0
No. Teeth don't glow under black light, regardless of how clean they are. It's the additives in tooth whitener that glows. Not the teeth, so yes, it's unnatural.

Trust me there is less ( norm ) then youd believe. This world is very weird. However the norm is said to be morally correct.

That's true, I have a backlight and got curious and did it to myself after reading this and nothing happened. My teeth aren't yellow, just average.

their teeth were glowing BECAUSE they used teeth whitening agents.... Not because they were naturally white.
pancakes_n_syrup 0
Um, I don't use whitening agents and my teeth glow in a blacklight. Maybe the "whitening agent" known as toothpaste is the culprit..still..I think I'll have my unnaturally white toothpaste smile than non glowing yellow teeth

I just looked this up so I can end this discussion. Enamel doesn't glow naturally, but whitening agents glow blue under a black light.

Teeth glow green under black light when they are DIRTY. NOT CLEAN jesus has anyone been to a rave?

Actually, white teeth aren't normal, our ancestors didn't have white teeth.
varkey 7
@90 our ancestors didn't live more than 15 years either, is that normal today? whether our ancestors had clean teeth or not is irrelevant. modern people should. neither FYL or YDI. justbrushbetter.

And how did op tell that his teeth wasn't glowing? can u see ur own teeth? But that could just mean that the toothpaste they use contains whitening which make ur teeth whiter

Haha YDI for not taking care of your teeth

Just because her/his teeth aren't pearly white doesn't mean she isn't taking care of them. I had bad seizures when I was little and the medication permanatly messed up my teeth color, even though I brush and floss every day!
sulitak 27
yeah, some people have a natural grey tint to their teeth as well. that, no matter how killer your hygiene routine is... and as pp said, anti seizure medication and some others can cause the enamel to weaken, causing a less than wonderful color to show through

Only fake teeth glow in a black light. You were the only one there with real teeth.
the_stereotype 0
psh...my teeth glow in black light, and i don't use any fake teeth or whitening-strips. i just brush my teeth well. anyway, your teeth not being white might just be genetic.
franceypants 0
my teeth are not fake at all, idont use white strips & mine glow vibrantly in black light
az1992 16
You've got it backwards. Fake teeth don't glow, real ones do
ToxicTyrael 26
Most toothpastes contain some whitener though the package doesn't list it. OP could just use healthier toothpaste (some biological for example). Teeth don't glow under black light without whiteners. It's the same with clothing.
