Various degrees of lulzy fail

Grandiose Gesture fail:
It seems like a good idea in theory to burn a box of letters and stuff from your ex, right? Very pagan and phoenixy, out of the ashes of something rises something new blah blah blah bullshit. except paper burns excruciatingly slowly. And smokily. About twelve matches, a half hour and some crispy burnt edges later I decided fuck it, poured about a gallon of water on the box, and chucked it. Next time I feel like destroying something in effigy I'm going to use an industrial paper shredder. At least that won't have me smelling like fail smoke.


Basic Kitchen Usage Fail:
You know you've overfilled the teakettle when instead of a cheery whistle, you get a high pitched burbling death rattle and a hiss of water aggressively vaporizing on the burner. One of the burner catchbasins has about an inch of water in it now. Oops.


ULTIMATE HAIR FAIL:
My hair has officially hit AWKWARD in length. Between it hitting past shoulder length and the natural part I seem to be developing on the right... well, lets just say I looked in the mirror a few minutes ago and for SOME reason THIS SONG popped into my head:



First person to suggest I do this for karaoke will be slowly fed toes-first into a D.O.T. snowblower.


I'd say FML, but sometimes, even my fail is hilarious.

lol thanks! Always nice to have it validated when I actually decide to put a little effort into my appearance. :)

And I love your icon - pretty much sums up my entire existence. :)

I KNOW, me too. Stefan keeps telling me I'm about to be 30 (I'm 28, will be 29 in January) and I'm like "STOP THAT." Not because I fear 30 necessarily, it's just, I am in no way an adult! Except for all the ways I am! My brain rebels!

29? 29??? But but but that's not even what that's not old! /flail

Oh trust me, I didn't want to say how old I am in response, lol.

I see that "'78" in your profile, young lady.

I'm everywhere, like chase bank, or ceiling cat.

It's not old, and I don't mean to imply that it is, just that I should actually be an adult and it doesn't feel that way.
