Mom Mistakes a Dead Fly for Her Fake Eyelashes, Tries to Glue It On

Apparently, Molly’s dear mother was trying to put on false eyelashes at home. You know, those tiny fake lashes that you can buy in the drugstore cosmetics aisle? They come with a little tub of glue, which is supposed to make things relatively simple and straightforward — but come on, we all know what a lie that is. Those things are tricky!

That’s why it’s sort of easy to relate to the plight of Molly’s mom, who wasn’t wearing her glasses and just couldn’t seem to glue her lashes on correctly. Why? Well, as Molly revealed in a hilarious photo posted to her Twitter account, her mom had mistakenly picked up not a lash, but a dead fly — and yup, she was trying to glue the darn thing to her eyelid.

Or maybe, since it involves bugs, we’re actually more like:
But nothing compares to the reaction of daughter Molly…
…whom we can’t help but applaud and thank for sharing this, um, special moment with the rest of us via social media. Nicely done!
Now if anyone needs us, we’ll be over here never buying fake eyelashes again.
