“Now I Wanna Die”: Woman Gets Call From Maintenance Guy Who Mistook Her Face Toner for a Sex Toy

TikToker @expiredglutenfreebread is known for populating her account with ebulliently charming clips where she uploads humorous observations (like this wonderful Six Feet Under video) along with posts unabashedly owning her natural gray hair and roasting others who tell her she should be concerned with looking older.

Recently, she went viral after posting an embarrassing misunderstanding she experienced with a maintenance worker in her building, who called her up to let her know that he helped to hide a "personal item" that was inside of her bathroom so that plumbers who were coming in to work on her toilet wouldn't see it.

She begins her video speaking into the camera from what looks like an office environment: "Um I just got a call, this is incredibly embarrassing, but I got a call from someone from my apartment complex — I had them come in to like take care of something in the bathroom, like my toilet's just like on the fritz, and they said that there was a personal item in the bathroom?"

The "personal item" being referring to is a self-use sexual gratification device; however, the TikToker says this was a misunderstanding and the maintenance worker misconstrued what the device's true purpose was.

The clip at this point cuts to her speaking with someone else in the video. "You wanna hear something very embarrassing?" she says to someone off camera.

"I'm having like stuff done in my apartment today like 'cause s--- is leaking, so, I get a call from the maintenance guy, he's like, uh, just letting you know I found a personal item in your bathroom and I know this guy, he's like, there's random guys coming for your toilet."

The TikTok user tells the person off camera that she was flabbergasted as to what the maintenance worker, who she knows personally, could mean by "personal item."

"It's like what the f--- could it be? Oh look, it's my f----- NuFace," she says, referencing the facial toning piece of beauty tech.

"It's my NuFace!" she shouts again, driving home the absurdity and embarrassment of having a skincare device misconstrued as a sex toy.

"Did they touch it?" the person off-camera asks, which prompted the TikToker to share the maintenance worker's solution to her problem.

"He said he put a towel over it," she states before erupting with laughter.

"I know, I know, I think that that's what he thinks it was, even though ... that's the thing, so now I wanna die," she says, laughing with the person off-camera.

"I'm like 99 percent sure that it's this particular thing," she says in another portion of her video before cutting to herself walking outdoors: "I literally cannot f----- wait to see what this is," she says, documenting her commute back to her home to see what the maintenance worker is referencing.

"OK," she says, walking into the door of her place. "Oh my God. OK," she continues before walking into the bathroom and turning on the light. Sure enough, resting on the sink is a small towel covering something up.

She removes the small purple towel to indeed reveal the facial toning product. "It's a NuFace!" she screams, laughing before the video ultimately closes.

While there were a lot of commenters who were tickled pink by her video, a number of them also mentioned had they not known what a NuFace was and they saw a device that looked like that vibrating, they'd assume it was a sex toy as well: "I be honest if that thing started to vibrate I would do the same thing as that dude .... I had no idea what a NuFace was until now lol."

Someone else wrote: "When I got my NuFace years ago I opened the package in front of a friend and he also thought it was a ~special toy~."

What do you think? If you spotted a NuFace would you assume it was a personal pleasure toy based on its design? Or are you well-versed in the world of tech beauty products?
