Though I have to say it may be a while before we top this one:
https://www.cnn.com/2021/02/08/us/goril ... index.htmlChick runs out of hair spray and decides gorilla glue is the right substitute. She was on the news this morning crying about it and saying she's gonna sue the makers over it.
This is why we get stupid labels on things. Like, "NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUPMTION" on antifreeze and bleach.

And that's just sad.
I'd love to see a judge just nope out on this one and tell her to grow a brain stem. Pretty soon all packaging is going to just be a list of don'ts. There won't be any room for the name of the product inside.

We must protect the idiots from themselves! Then again, do you really think she read the label?

If one were inclined to give her the benefit of the doubt they'd say she got confused and meant to use Moco de Gorilla (gorilla snot) which is an actual hair product.
But no... that's probably not what happened...

I don't know if it still exists, but there used to be a product called "Gorilla Snot" that was a sticky resin like material to put on your guitar pick where your finger and thumb make contact with the pick so you could get a better grip on it if your hands sweat a lot. I had a Gorilla Snot t-shirt back in the day, it was a picture of a gorilla with a runny nose and he was using a guitar pick to wipe the snot off the end of his nose.

Yup, it’s still around - for $6.50 American, Sweetwater Sound will sell you Gorilla Snot, and send you catalogs and Bit O Honeys.

I guess she got the Gorilla Glue in the hair care aisle at Home Depot?

My previous IT guy was Russian. Deep voice, exactly what you imagine of a stereotypical cigarette smoker Russian accent. Every single time I have some computer issue I hear his voice..
"Did you reboot?"
