Today, as I finished putting self tanner on my legs, the phone rang. Telemarketer. After returning to the bathroom I put moisturizer on my face. As I looked in the mirror, I soon realized I'd forgotten to wash my hands. My face is now streaky orange. FML

YDI for using self tanner. Tanner cream = instant oompaloompa

I call BS. Unless you had mistaken your tanning lotion for moisturizer or unless you answer your phone with your feet this seems unlikely. You would have noticed tanning lotion on your phone when you picked it up unless you're an idiot.

i'm calling you out on this one. first of all, the key to using self tanner is that you mix it with moisturizer in order to reduce lines. if what you say is true, your legs should have a lot more streaks. second, it takes a while to settle in. even after it dries, you can't wash or anything because the effects could fade. if you "immediately" realized that you forgot to wash your hands, you could have just gone and washed your face. btw, your hands would be super orange.. if i was you, i wouldn't be worrying about my face. third, i'm assuming you're a girl.. there's nothing makeup can't fix.

That's what you get for using self tanner. It always looks terrible. People with fake tans aren't fooling anyone- When's the last time you saw a naturally orange person?

you know people that put that shit on look like Umpa Lumpa's... It is not attractive, unless you're trying to attract yourself a Jersey man.

Quarter cup of lemon juice, half a cup of salt and a loofah sponge scrub scrub scrub! seriously it works

I was about to vote YDI, but the detail about the telemarketer made me change my mind. FYL :(

Stupid Google ads. I open this page, only to be subjected to yet another highly mediocre FML and now I have a nasty, self tanned orange ass burning its image into my retinas. It's times like this I am jealous of people who read these on their phones and don't have to see the propaganda that litters the margins.

YA, NOT REALLY DRAMATIC. JUST STUPID, IF IT'S even true.... and what, it works instantly?

Don't you have an answering machine or voice mail? probably coulda let that answer it.
