What's cooking?

By Van - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I took a hot plate out of the oven with my fancy silicone oven mitt. Seconds after carefully placing it on the cook top, I picked it up with my left, unprotected hand. FML

In Soviet Russia, hot plate puts you in oven.

Jeeze, I can understand accidentally burning yourself, or even sometimes touching it with your bare hand.. But actually picking it up?

How are you even smart enough to be able to feed yourself?

Speak for yourself; it just means that you're an idiot, too. I've been cooking for almost ten years and have never grabbed a hot plate/pan/dish/food/etc with an unprotected hand absent-mindedly.

don't stick your hand in ice, you'll get freezer burn, run it under cold water for 5 minutes at least.

catatonicsleep - actually, that depends where you live. Where I live, it's so warm that ice begins melting as soon as you take it out of the freezer, so if you stuck your hand in a bucket of ice you'd have no chance of getting freezer burn. That said, running water is still the best thing for a burn.

Today, my comment was moderated because I said the FMLs today were boring. It was barely 50 characters long. FML.

Since when is saying that the FMLs have been boring lately, been against the rules?
