Women Left Pink Faced After Asking the Internet for Sympathy
Mike Sanders / 7 years ago
So, how did that work out for you?
We’re all done something we’re a bit embarrassed about, however, I suspect in most instances you wouldn’t want to advertise it too much. Particularly if you had painted your face pink. What level of sanity that leads someone to do that is beyond me, however, to decide to take the matter to social media is something liable to get you taken away in a sleeveless white jacket.
Now, of course, Twitter is used to such levels of scandal. This, however, is genuinely hilarious.
That is, however, exactly what Twitter user Leah decided to do, and as you can imagine, the online community hasn’t been entirely sympathetic towards her plight.

Using the Twitter handle @LeleTill, Leah decided to declare her legal action against poster paint provider Palmer. Now, in fairness to her, it does say on the label ‘washes easily off skin’, that being said, there is a lesson here. Be careful what you buy off the internet.
So, what has the Twitter community had to say about this calamitous affair?
They have been very supportive of Leah and wish her every success with her law suit against Palmer. Ok, no they haven’t and given the responses, Leah might be starting to wish that there was censorship of Twitter posts.
Ok, here’s a selection of the funnier posts. You meanies!

The above scored a solid 7/10. Right idea, wrong colour.

Trolling levels are improving.

The moral of this pink face story?
If you’re going to post something on social media, perhaps take a moment to think and consider how the community and your friends are going to react. On the other hand, consider that in addition to making yourself look silly, you may have brought a little more happiness to the world. It, therefore, isn’t all bad news.
