I once grew loads of scotch bonnet chillies and wanted to clean then to make pickled chillies, chilli jam etc. To do this, I put them in a large bowl of hot water and scrubbed them a bit.

Don't do this

There would have been less pain if I'd held my hands to the lit hob for 2 hours

🙌🌶

Just adding to this, don’t ever confuse canisten cream for deep heat cream. Canisten tube was white and red. Deep heat was red and white. I did not have my glasses on and it was dark. Right there with you enduring so others don’t have to OP

PRAYERS! 🙏

Nominative determinism in action, JFDIYOLO.😂😂😂

Although if YOLO is wrong, I suspect you'll still be giving the ol' pube perfume a miss in your next 10 lives...

I can remember using a vaginal deodorant spray years ago. It was very heavily marketed at the time.

It didn't sting, but I was told that it tasted foul.

Back in the 80s I went on a 6th form residential trip where we all slept in one large dorm and one girl used to use this spray every morning causing intense fascination from the rest of us. I was not even aware that such things existed.

I once had a really horrific head cold. I couldn't get any relief, in desperation I ran a hot bath, and put Olbas oil in it. I got in and within a few minutes i knew the mistake i had made 😳

I tingled for a week and had a UTI 😂

Yeah, she ended up with a lemony snicket.

I'll show myself out.

Well, lets just say blistex lip balm in the tube is very...exhilarating if your partner uses it generously before oral sex.

Thanks so much, @FusionChefGeoff !

I am accepting this award on behalf of all women who have ever put something ill-advised onto their pubic region or, indeed, around their arsehole.

And of course a big shout-out to @Jk8 for setting up the lemony snicket gag so well for me!

Jeez louise! Nothing you spray higher goes higher than knees or lower than waist!!!!

Or has very recently cleaned his teeth with particularly minty toothpaste. 😅

This puts me in mind of the review for Veet. I am sure that most of you will probably have read this before but I still find it funny.

I once checked my coil threads having chopped chillis...
I'd washed my hands and it was an hour before, but bloody hell it hurt. Very odd position in the shower trying to rinse chilli from my cervix. And an uncomfortable evening with dinner guests!!

Thank god I saw this just in time. I had already covered my toes in toothpaste and fake tanned my armpits. My next job was spraying my pubes with orange scented perfume. 😂

😂😂

CombatLingerie · 06/02/2024 15:55

Ah thanks for the laugh OP! Not funny perhaps but a relative of mine worked with a woman who had a minor eye operation. She was given eye drops in a tiny squeezy bottle to put in her eye at home after the operation. She instead put in her eye a drop from a similar tiny squeezy bottle. It was glue for false nails 😱.

LaurieFairyCake · 06/02/2024 15:56

I had a cold and put tea tree oil in the bath

Too much, probably about 10ml

Almost froze to death

Fairyliz · 06/02/2024 16:02

Not quite the point of the thread, but I keep getting ads pop up for the Saltworks perfume tester kit.
How do you rate their products when sprayed on a more conventional part of your body?

I had until now mercifully forgotten this latter aspect with reference to my experience with the mint and tea tree shower gel. Thank you @FetchezLaVache for the most uncomfortable reminder! 😂😂😂
