Today, I baked a chicken pot pie in the oven. I pulled it out, and noticed a big piece of tasty-looking, flaky pastry had come loose. Without thinking I ripped it off and popped it into my mouth. I HEARD the skin on the inside of my cheeks burn. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, as I was trying to remove my lunch from the hot oven tray, my finger brushed against the metal for a moment, and I instinctively put it in my mouth. I burnt my tongue, on my finger. I didn't realize that was possible. FML
Today, I popped something straight out of the oven into my mouth. It burned my tongue instantly, but instead of spitting it out, I swallowed. I felt it burning all the way down. Now I can’t eat solid food or drink hot drinks. FML
Today, I had so much skin peeling off my lips that it got caught in my fork as I was eating. FML
Today, I got a meat pie for lunch. I bit into it and felt something hard. I spat it out. It was a tooth. I checked my mouth in a panic and discovered, with mixed feelings of relief and horror, that the tooth wasn’t mine. 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 made myself a hot pocket for lunch. I managed to scald myself on the red-hot cheese, and at the same time bite into the center, which was somehow still frozen solid. FML
Today, I was making a homemade pizza for myself. I've been unhappy lately, so I arranged the pepperoni in the shape of a smiley face to cheer myself up. The pizza burned. FML
Today, whilst on a road trip with friends, we stopped at a roadside diner for lunch. I ordered a chicken sandwich and when it arrived, I took a huge bite out of it, only to realize that it was still completely raw in the middle. FML
Today, I was working and eating. I was so tired that I bit into my pen and smeared my chocolate-filled pastry on my exercise book. FML

So what does it sound like? Just a general sizzle?

Oh my god, all of you who are saying the OP deserved this are harsh assholes. I mean come on, I am sure all of us have burnt ourselves because we grabbed, ate, or drank something that was super how without thinking... I got hot chocolate one time and without thinking I took a huge sip of it right way.....yeah, that felt good, lol. As far as the OP not feeling how hot the pastry was with their fingers, I did wonder the same thing, but like others suggested, maybe they had an oven mit on, or maybe their fingers are not that sensitive to heat. From handling hot foods for soo many years, my mother-in-law can handle something I think is hot and it doesn't phase her.

#33 What are you, a preschool teacher? Do you go around all day looking for things to mark? Do you give yourself gold stars? Or are you 14? At any rate - get out more. OP - The sneakiest thing is how hot dam tomatoes get after they've been in a microwave - and when they're hiding in leftovers...

AFAIK, the tissues in your mouth regenerate four times faster than your skin, that is, approximately one week as opposed to one month (28 days or so) for skin. But still, YDI for being such a dumbass that you ate something fresh out of the oven. At least blow on it first!

#11 - you beat me to this reference - I was going to say that the OP should not eat things directly from the oven, but should warm them first in a spoon with a candle ;)
