Today, a hornet thought it would be fun to fly into a candle that I had lit. As the hornet burned to death, it flung its charred body at my face, which is more painful than it sounds. FML

Today, I helped a very large elderly man, who thanked me and tried to hand me a dollar bill. I kindly told him, "We are not allowed to accept tips from customers." His reply was, "You're going to take this fucking money," and shoved it in my pocket. I'm now being written up for it. FML

That should actually be fine, you just smother your thumb quickly before the fuel has a chance to burn off and start burning your thumb, and you'll be fine. People actually do this with alcohol for tricks

I refilled a wick type lighter for the first time the other day, and one of my biggest concerns was getting fluid on my fingers and desk, and then accidentally setting them on fire. So I used a wet wipe to clean my hands, the desk, and the outside of the lighter for good measure before test firing. The fire was contained to the wick where it belongs.
