  Recently I was so tired that I mixed up tubes and applied Melbcat’s toothpaste to her nose instead of her sunscreen

    You may have seen an incident that blew up on reddit about the person who put their pet rat in the fridge and the butter in the cage and then had to fight to extricate the rat who had discovered the ham.

    that was me. Autopilot and exhaustion are a helluva combination.

        I got home from graveyard sift, had Onion (rat) roaming merrily on counter while making toast. Eat toast. Put things away. Take rat back to cage. Realise i was putting tub of margerine in rat cage. Panic, bolt back into kitchen, tear open fridge full of apologies.

        Onion had discovered the deli ham and clung to sides of fridge when I tried to remove her

    My ex brother-in-law applied what he thought was roll on deodorant and was mystified and freaked out about 10 minutes later when his armpit hair began to fall out

    Boyo once applied toothpaste to this face instead of sunscreen. It was all over his face and beard before he noticed. I absolutely howled laughing and took a picture (with permission).
