Have you heard about her?

She ran out of her normal hair styling spray so to keep her hair-doo to stay put she used Gorilla Glue Spray Adhesive on her hair.

YEP...it stayed put and is staying put for over a month despite numerous hair washing, ER trip and suggestions by Gorilla Glue MFG.

GoFundMe account and pro bono service by some plastic surgeon that claims he can remove the adhesive

She is contemplating SUING the MFG

She didn't look old enough to eat paste as a kid and think that it would have made a good hair paste that would wash out when the time came.

She didn't look old enough to sniff glue as a kid and think it would make a good hair gel too.

Instead, she DID look old enough to read the instructions AND fine print.

Instead, her thinking must have been that if it's good enough to hold things together, it will hold her hair too. Why not, it comes out of an aerosol can like Aqua Net. BUT she didn't look old enough to have ever used that either.

Hopefully experience will bring common sense. Ok, that last statement was a joke.

You can't fix stupid with duct tape, you can only muffle the sound of it! Imagine how big that glue label will be after the lawyers get to it!
The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits. A.E.
Didn't think that other one posted. New improved version.

My teenage sister back in the '60s used Aqua Net to hold her 'beehive' in place
That stuff was like glue

And great as a 'flame thrower'------I was an 8 yr old with bags of army men that got the brunt of front line attack

Funny. I was going to mention the flamethrower part too, but she wasn't old enough for that either.

You can't fix STUPID

Stupid should hurt

Play STUPID games and you win STUPID prizes

It's sure going to look funny while it grows out. It will look like a lifted truck.

Another person who made a mistake and wants to blame others for it.
Many Many people have problems with owning up to a mistake. Those that do own up are strong people. Those that blame others are weak.

It works well in a spud gun, also.

What even better than using gorilla glue in your hair? Being one of the folks that donated to her go fund me. I swear folks encourage this behavior. Just start a go fund me when you do something stupid and get rewarded with money

You can’t fix stupid but you can get rich from it.
You have to wonder what she was smoking that made her think it was a good idea to put glue on her hair. Safe travels

Enjoy the journey

I looked for a go fund me site where I can contribute . . . . but I can't find it.

I've been searching "contribute to gofundme to support manufacturers of Gorilla Glue legal defense fund"

Am I doing something wrong?!?

One of my favorite lines from George Carlin was: Just think about how stupid the average person is, now remember that means half the people are even more stupid than that.
