I need a long weekend

I've been wearing clear nail strengthening varnish for the last few days, carefully buffed so that it didn't look too shiny. Tonight I decided to take it off. So I loaded up a cotton ball with nail varnish remover and started to work.

The stuff seemed amazingly hard to shift. It just didn't want to come off! Maybe the buffing had somehow chemically bonded it with my nail??

After nearly five minutes of soaking and picking at the edges, I realised that instead of using a bottle of this... I was using a bottle of this.

Um... it doesn't remove nail varnish.
