Today, I learned to check inside the oven before you preheat it. Sometimes children hide their pet rabbit in there. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, after 30 minutes of pre-heating the oven to make a special meatloaf for my husband's birthday, I remembered that I had hidden the cake in there. FML
Today, I learned where my mom's "special hiding spot" that I'll "never find" for the Halloween chocolate is, when I preheated the oven to make cookies. FML
Today, I watched our very clever cat turn on our oven with ease. I now fear for my children's lives. FML
Today, I was trying to cook a pizza for lunch at my in-laws. I preheated the oven and took my dog out to go potty. I come back in to find the house filled with smoke, the detector going off, and a fire in the oven. Apparently, my mother-in-law left a tray of glass candle holders in it. FML
Today, while house sitting, I went to take my pizza out of the oven, not realizing that the oven mitt had a hole in it. FML
Today, I baked a cake. After feeding it to my entire family, I opened the stove, planning to temporarily store the cake inside. I then noticed a mouse, burnt to a crisp. FML
Today, I learned how to use a fire extinguisher. Too bad it was on my brand new oven. FML
Today, my 8-year-old son microwaved his pet hamster. FML
Today, after meaning to do so for a while, I began cleaning my oven. I sprayed it with the foam cleaner stuff, closed the oven for the foam to soak in, then forgot about the whole thing. Later, I preheated the oven for a pizza and triggered a smoke alarm, which brought the fire department to my door. No pizza, just shame. FML
Today, I found out you really can burn down a kitchen by boiling an egg. FML

To everyone saying "You should always check the preheat oven shelf height" Maybe she set it earlier? Plus, to thos of you saying the kid shouldn't be left alone with the rabbit/shouldn't have one outright... Ever consider the fact they have more than one child? There's such a thing as a "family pet". And kids can do a LOT of things in a small amount of time. My mum left my little brother alone for 5 minutes in the living room when he was 5. She got back and the walls were plastered in crayon.

Agreed. Mom left me and my brother in the tub in our pre-school days for 5 minutes and returned to find the aftermath of a Sharpie duel. No one knows how we smuggled the markers in, either...

I agree with you. I NEVER check the oven before I turn it on because there shouldn't be anything in there and I always keep the shelf height the same every time. As for the whole crap of "if you have a kid and a pet you should expect that" that's just dumb. Just because you have a kid and a pet doesn't mean that you should automatically know that the kid is going to try and put the pet in the oven. Most kids have enough common sense not to do that. If you teach them that the oven is a hot place that burns you then they will leave it alone. I don't understand how people think that you should just expect stuff like that just because you have kids and pets doesn't mean you think of every possible thing they could do to the pet.

I suppose it's fortunate that you aren't a parent, then.

The real FML will be when you're convicted of animal cruelty, savage.

if the child is not old enough to know not to hide the rabbit any place, it should not be left alone with the rabbit.

I can't believe you just baked a live rabbit to death. wtf That's beyond horrible and srsly, carelessness is no excuse for the bunny's obscene death. YDI
