Appliances are supposed to help make our lives easier and keep the humble abode tidy. No one wants to come home to a filthy house with a bunch of broken household items, right? But what if your trusty tools suddenly turn on you? Accidents happen all the time, yes, but some freak accidents can cause some harm that isn’t for the squeamish.

From an accidental cut on the aluminum foil container to almost electrocuting yourself with a hairdryer in the sink, there’s a plethora of dangers within the household. Guess there really is a reason why there are so many warning stickers on everything, huh?

Basically, read all the danger stickers and make sure that to cover all bases before trying to f*ck around with appliances. If you can hold your breath, here are some pretty insane attacks that handy dandy tools have caused.

17 People Attacked By Household Items


1.

Earlier today while brushing my teeth (keeping personal hygiene in the summer?), I was working on the back of my front teeth, when my toothbrush slipped out. It spun all the way around my hand, and then jabbed me square in the eye. It’s an evil toothbrush.

2.

Stood up on the bed while having sex and got about 14 smacks in the face from the fan

3.

…Just don’t iron clothes without a shirt on.

4.

I dropped a Pyrex indestructibly plate. It hit perfectly flat on the floor. The tension caused the plate to split along the edge between flat and the sides. The side piece popped into the air spinning. Raised up to neck level with me.That was freaking weird.

5.

I used to masturbate with a small fan that I had taken the guard off of. I had a friend over and told him to try it out and he ended up cutting his ding dong.
