Or, also subject to a weight limitation, but a higher one, high strength double sided tape. You can get it at a hardware store or from a place that sells signage (like an engraving business) - it's what they use to mount signs to walls/windows.

ETA: There is a direct relationship between how much weight a variety of tape can hold and how easy it is to subsequently take down the shelf. Depending on the build of the shelf, it may be destroyed in the process. Nonetheless, once you get the shelf removed from the mirror, removing the tape residue can be accomplished easily using a little lighter fluid.

Does anyone know of any way to attach a shelf to a mirrored wall (in the bathroom, you perverts) without destroying the mirror?

I kind of suspect I'm SOL on this one.

I am all of those things already, but ... if the shelf isn't going to be holding a lot of weight, you might look into Command Adhesive. I used that stuff to install a couple of hooks holding up a rod & shower curtain on a tiled wall, and it works great. No idea if it works on glass, sorry.

Fine. Then I'm not going to participate until I can think up an "embarrassing holiday moment" that somehow manages to highlight how hot and irresistable I am. This could take a while, so don't hold your breath.

Ha! That's pretty good. But one doesn't need to be hot or irresistable to get a small, drunken kiss at midnight on New Years.

But whatever. I'd still like to hear your embarrassing holiday moment story highlighting how hot and irresistable you are.

I don't want to destroy the mirror (including drilling into it) so that if I ever need that portion of the mirror to view myself ass-fucking someone (or for a different angle on my view of my two love-slaves ass-fucking each other), I can remove the shelf in question.

dtb, the "hanging from the ceiling" portion of your solution did not involve a shelf on the mirror -- which was the issue at hand. You changed the hypo. Bitch.

Can it be cleaned off of glass, eventually? I'm not sure exactly what height my love slaves will be, or whether they might be ass-fucking while suspended from the ceiling or something.

I am bored out of my SKULL. I need a distraction from these stupid fucking documents. I can't think of any sexual topics we haven't already beaten into the ground, so we'll have to settle for this:

What's your most embarassing Holiday Moment?

It can be any holiday. Who cares?

Mine would have to be when I was home from college one year and was meeting my friend out at some club for a New Year's party. I was there for awhile and he hadn't shown up yet. I got good and drunk and was dancing with some girl with a smokin' body who enjoyed rubbing it all over me. Midnight comes and still, my friend hasn't shown up. I've been hangin' out with this girl and we had a little kiss at midnight (light tongue -- didn't make out, really). She was drunk too (wouldn't she have to be?).

At about 12:30, my friend walks in and I'm talking to another of our friends and he comes over with the girl and says, "Guys, this is Sarah, my new girlfriend."

I've been known to injure myself on most minor holidays that involve drinking (I don't have a problem; why do you ask?), so I'll limit my response to only two of them (sorry, the first one is quite long):

1. Halloween (by the way this is ridiculously outable, but I don't care) - I was involved in a group costume (Spice Girls) and after our main party we headed over to a bar where a dj was on stage, spinning mostly crappy music. We were just drunk enough that going on stage and dancing to a Spice Girls song sounded like a really good idea (for me, that means I was quite drunk). Unfortunately the bar didn't like the idea of patrons going up on the stage to bother the dj, so some sort of barricade was erected (a big wooden box, laid across two barstools). I decided I could scale the barricade, and proceeded to do so. When I got to the top of the box, the box, the barstools and I tumbled to the ground. My knees were bloodied, but I was unphased and I continued on my journey to talk to the dj, who agreed to play Spice Girls and all was good until the bouncer saw me on stage and dragged me down. The Spice Girls song plays, and we dance at the front of the club (not on stage). Eventually while I'm dancing someone asks me why my face was bleeding (I was completely unaware of this fact). Turns out that when I fell from the box, I gashed my face on the stage while descending. I'm sure at this point in the evening I looked lovely. And, of course, none of my injuries hurt at all until the next day.

2. St Patrick's Day - There's a big parade/block party every year that starts early in the morning, so by noon people are usually blitzed. I was still sober, walking my friend's two large dogs, one year around noon and I stopped to get my first beer of the day. While I was holding the beer, untying the leashes from the fence that they were attached to during the beer purchase, the dogs took off in opposite directions. I started to fall over and I would have hit the street hard, but for the fact that some guy was standing right behind me. So instead of hitting the ground, I hit him, spilling my beer and his beer all over him. He was seriously pissed at me and I could tell he wished I was a guy cause he would have punched me. After he and his friends walked away, the people standing next to me told me that they were a bunch of clowns anyway and that I made their day. So I'm a hero.

Ok, fine. If you insist. One time I went out on Valentines Day to a party without a date. I was, like, so totally embarrassed to be single on Valentines Day, but I'd just broken up with my boyfriend because he was really rich and wanted me to quit my job and marry him and live a life of luxury, but my career is really important to me (I just can't get enough of document review) so I had to turn him down.

Anyway, I got asked out by three different hot guys at the party, but I was a little embarrassed because one of the three guys had brought a date to the party and she was really upset when he asked me out in front of her. And trust me, when Halle gets upset, that bitch has a real potty mouth.

Then, two other guys got into a fistfight over who was going to get to give me a ride home -- whew, I'm sure I don't have to tell you how embarrassing that was. Finally, the next morning, I woke up and realized that I had somehow managed to leave my panties in George Clooney's car after he gave me a "ride" home. Embarrassing!

Anyway, that night was just one long humiliating embarrassing moment for me. Luckily for me, that's the only Valentines Day I've ever spent single.

Fringey, I think dtb is suggesting a hot glue gun. It's like a gun, that shoots hot glue. I'm sure you're familar.

That's right, Flinty my man (well, sort of man...). We are nothing if not helpful, n'est-ce pas?

So after I shoot ropes of hot, viscous fluid at the mirror, what do I do?

OK, where do I find shelves that would be amenable to being mounted this way?

Yes it did.

You just need a little imagination. Imagine, if you will, one of those fancy, glass, tiered shelves (say -- oh, I don't know -- maybe three shelves?). The skinny ends of the top shelf would have a hook of some kind, through which would be looped some heavy wire. The heavy wire would then be secured into the ceiling in such a way such that the shelves would lean ever-so-gently onto the mirror, but the suspending force would be from the hook on the ceiling.

Detail is helpful, here.

Hmmmm.

Thanks! and to balt, too.
