Today, I made microwaveable popcorn. When the bag finished popping, I took it out and opened it and put my face in close to get a big whiff. It now feels like I have third degree burns inside my nose and behind my eyes. FML

AlbertEinstein_ tells us more.

This is my FML, i had to make an acc to comment! I know, people, this was so incredibly stupid!! I have no idea why the hell I thought that would be a good idea, I think I wanted to check if there was salt in it before I left the kitchen (no idea how smelling it would clarify) so that I wouldn't have to get back up! I totally deserved this one, and I will surely never, ever do this again! My original FML had "And yes, it is possible to be this stupid" at the end, but that must've been edited out :( And I put the name Albert Einstein cause it was ironic or something, I don't know. But I certainly didn't think I was smart or anything....And my eyes still hurt :(

...Have you never made popcorn before? Or read the big letters on the bag that say; "CAUTION: CONTENTS ARE HOT!"?

People like you are the reason we have warning labels.

Third Degree burns are generally painless... they burn away the nerves.

I was going to say this; the only reason third degree burns hurt is because they are generally surrounded by second and first degree burns, which will hurt.

Look up news reports about "popcorn lung". No joke, breathing that stuff in is bad.

You, my friend, are not too smart.

Sounds like you just weren't thinking haha

Not to be obnoxious, but a third degree burn burns your actual nerves. Basically they aren't painful as there's nothing left to hurt in the burned area.

um....why woukd you do that? are you stupid?

What the hell? Why would you do that? Everyone knows how hot it is.
