People Share The Worst Life Hacks They Used––With Consequences

A Rotten Time

I wanted lighter hair for summer and used lemons for it when I was 13 about 7 years ago. Bad move. Hair was dry.

Staying on the hair theme, I put banana in my hair because seventeen magazine said it would leave it ‘soft and silky’ when I was 15. Well, guess franking what? It was impossible to wash out and I had to pick banana clumps out of my quacking hair for flipping three weeks. I had rotten banana in my hair!!!

Shattered the neck of the bottle.

Sliced open my hand and needed stitches.

…and I’ll take dumbass, drunk decisions for $800, Alex!

Common Sense 2.0

I once saw one that suggested, “Instead of buying expensive binoculars, just stand closer to what you wish to view.”

Y’know, stand closer to those birds. Climb right on down onto the field at a baseball game. Leap off the top of the Grand Canyon. What could go wrong?
