Today, I dropped my hair straightener. The good news is I caught it. The bad news is I caught it by the iron itself. FML

So catching it on the hot part probably caused you to drop it through instincts so you probably didn't catch it.

it happens to the best of us, OP :( 52, why are you telling 27 to put her pants up? the girl in her picture is 99.9999999 percent not her anyway, lol.

Who cares if it's her or not!? it's freaking unnecessary... nobody needs to see that much of anybodys ass in a FML prof pic.

hhhmmm 92... I'm not being immature by voicing my opinion you're being immature by feeling the need to keep trying get your way... and I honestly don't care what their opinion is is what I mean by I don't care. P.S why do you two care cause you werent even part of this in the first place. I don't want to discuss this anymore.... we are DONE talking about this.

Actually, you were being immature by talking shit about what she's wearing, as well as whoever else said something about what she was wearing. No one asked for you to be a bitch to her for showing off her body, she can if she wants to. You're aloud to have your opinion, but there is no need for you to comment telling her she needs to put pants on or not, it's none of your concern.
No I wasn't involved in this conversation, but I'm sticking up for her. I stick up for everyone who's pictures get shit talked about them from people. I'm sure if your picture was getting shit talked about it, you'd want me to stick up for you also.
We can argue about this all day if you'd like. Bottom line, if you don't want people to be telling you off for talking shit, don't talk it in the first place. :)

I definitely agree with you! But I just feel it's very unnecessary. I'm glad there's people out there like you who are willing so stick up for people, If I offended her or anybody else I'm sorry. Only trying to voice my opinion.

Normally I would be fine with voicing your opinion. But in the case that it's against people's looks, or what they're wearing, I find it unnecessary. It's their way of expressing themselves, and if that's how she wishes to express herself, then so be it. :)
Sorry if I offended you also.

I did the same thing! only I caught it between my legs, and I was wearing shorts. I had 2 stripes the length of the side of the iron scarred into my thighs for years!

If I dropped a light saber I would keep my feet the hell away to lessen the impact, in order to avoid having my feet chopped off.

when you drop a hammer, would you automatically try to catch it or move your feet away?

I think for most people, regardless of the object, if they drop something, they would probably attempt to catch it. Be it a hammer, hair iron, plate, so on and so forth. You can think and tell yourself what you want, but when things like this happen, you don't have a chance to think. That's why it's an automatic response.

A light saber is not real, duh loser. And catching a straightened wouldn't chop your feet or hands off so there is less risk.
A hammer is also not a good comparison because they cost a lot less that a chi hair straightener.
This is more comparable to trying to catch the nice phone that happens to be hooked into a wall and has 300 degrees plates slightly protected from your grasp, but not completely. Yes, you are going to try to salvage it with the risk of a burn because it is expensive and you cherish what you have.

My automatic reaction for when something is hot is to not catch it. If you can keep in mind that an iron might bust if it drops, you can keep in mind that it's scalding hot. Op seems to be more concerned with the cost of the iron. Fyl.

Reflex. I bet 50% of girls who straighten their hair a lot have done this or almost done it. I have. :( luckily it had just turned on and wasn't super hot

Well anyway, my point didn't concern whether something was expensive or not while you have your conditioned response. If you were carrying something heavy, like a table, you probably would feel the fear or danger of being injured if you tried to catch it before it falls to the floor..

and of course me being smart, dropped it and cracked it. a small burn > 80$
but then again with new ones I always catch it by the cable.
