Food and Miscellaneous: Damned freshmen

Damned freshmen

By CRC - 23/11/2011 15:38 - United States

Today, a freshman set off the fire alarm in my dorm at 2 a.m. He tried to microwave Easy Mac without adding water. I had to stand outside for 45 minutes while the firemen moved the noodles to the sink and ran cold water over them. FML

Today, I decided to make a toaster scramble. I thought it was bad enough when the pastry fell through the grate in the toaster over. Then it burst into flames. After 5 minutes of fanning the smoke away from the smoke detector, it still went off. Now my entire dorm building is outside in a snowstorm. FML

Today, while I was in a very important meeting on Skype, my apartment complex was evacuated due to the fire alarm going off. The reason was that my neighbor put a fork in his microwave due to him being extremely drunk. FML

Today, I spent an hour and a half trying to rid my house of smoke and burnt plastic smell because my little sister didn't know she was supposed to add water in the package of microwaveable mac and cheese. FML

Today, I was sleeping in my apartment when I woke up to the smell of smoke. Alarmed, I ran out to the kitchen to find my roommates trying to put out a fire on the stove. As soon as they saw me, they ran for it, informing me that it was my problem now. They used my good frying pan. FML

Today, I accidentally bumped into the fire alarm which set off a high pitch buzzing noise that could be heard throughout the entire dorm. It went on for at least two hours and none of the technicians could figure out how to turn it off. All the girls on my floor want to kill me. FML

Today, I was looking forward to my only day to sleep-in this month while I'm balancing school and work. I was rudely awakened at 6 am by my sister and her friend trying to make pancakes, burning them, and setting off the fire alarm in my house for half an hour. FML

Today, I tried to make breakfast. I had everything cooking on the stove when I reached to turn on the faucet, only to find out that the head of the faucet was up the sleeve of my robe. After drying off, I went to serve my boyfriend his plate, but when I returned, the stove had caught fire. FML

Today, I was home alone and tried to make some popcorn so I could watch a movie. Thirty minutes later, my parents came home and found me talking to the firemen. FML

I did the same exact thing only I was little and my brother never told me to add water

My brother did that and he didn't realize that it had no water in the bowl until after. He ended up burning a hole in the bowl.

I think he was talking about the Invader Zim demotivational poster that 20 is using for a profile picture.

Yeah, I misread that as well, but then I realized that Invader Zim was on someones profile... I have to agree though, I loved that show (:

Why the hell didn't he just remove them from the microwave when they started smoking? What an amateur mistake. So you may be wondering, "Is it a good idea to microwave Easy Mac without water?" Bad idea.

I did this with rice. Ended up destroying the inside of the microwave and we all had to sit outside while airing out the place of toxic burnt plastic fumes. :|

How did this guy even get into college if he can't read simple instructions on a Mac & Cheese box?

My daughter is an honor student and has taken numerous Honors & AP classes. The problem is with state university system here in California. Due to budget cuts, they are accepting many less students. In addition, they are trying to get more foreign and out-of-state students to come here because they pay a lot more tuition.
