Today, I realized that the "eyelash curling brush" that my best friend found in my old bathroom drawer was actually a stick used for cleaning food out of my sister's braces. I used that thing for years. FML

Today, I found out that my stepsister loves sticking random household objects in her ear in an attempt to collect ear wax. I found out when I walked in on her trying to pick all the wax out of the bristles of my toothbrush. FML

Today, my girlfriend was visiting, and while in the bathroom, she clogged the toilet. Since there was no plunger in the room, she unclogged it with the only thing she could find: my mother's hairbrush. FML

Today, I stayed over at my grandparents' house. I woke up and had to brush my teeth. My grandma asked if I had found a toothbrush to use. I told her that I used my old purple toothbrush. She told me that was the toothbrush she used to brush her toenails. FML

Today, I cleaned the toilet so vigorously that I snapped the handle of the brush. I laughed and told the rest of my family. Instead of joining in on the hilarity, my mother screamed, "We have had that toilet brush for twenty-six years!" FML

Today, after a fight, I caught my sister rubbing my toothbrush on the inside of our grimy toilet. This is why I have trust issues. FML

Today, while at my parent's house I decided to take a shower. I had to use my sister's bathroom and once out, grabbed a comb from her cupboard to brush my hair. I then noticed the clumps of hair on my shoulders. It's a razor comb on one side, regular on the other. I used the wrong side. FML

The plaque and food particles probably gave your eyelashes extra body! Nice repurposing, OP!

I'm surprised you mistook it for a lash curler and not a brow brush. A pick for braces is similar to the latter. Regardless, this isn't really that bad, OP. It's kinda gross to think about, but only slightly unfortunate.

I just took my braces off a few months ago and did use a special tool that looked like an eyelash brush to clean in between the brackets. I'm just wondering why the OP didn't just use mascara with a built in brush instead? There's no way her sister would have used that to clean her teeth. :P

Happens to the best of us. Not really. But whatever helps you feel better about it, OP. if you never noticed any gross stuff on it, then it probably wasn't THAT dirty. But still gross, nonetheless
