Today, I was cleaning a pan. I turned the water on, and it was super hot. My reaction was to slam my hand down. On a knife. So, not only do I have a burned hand, but there's also a huge cut on it from the knife. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, while cooking, I managed to burn my finger. I quickly turned the tap on and ran my finger under cold water, but apparently someone had just used the hot tap, because boiling water flooded out onto my nicely scalded finger. FML
Today, I accidentally touched a hot pan and, like any normal person would, jerked my hand back. My mom saw, yelled at me for being a "prissy princess" and then proceeded to stick her whole hand on the hot pan for a full 5 seconds. FML
Today, while washing dishes for my friend, I managed to break an unbreakable glass and slice my hand open on it. FML
Today, I was washing the dishes when I gave myself a nasty gash on my leg from the open dishwasher door. After five minutes of cleaning up the blood and wrapping it up, I came back to finish the job only to drop a plate and send broken shards into my foot. FML
Today, I got home from the hospital after I burned my hand. Why? I dropped my phone in the pot while stirring hot soup, and I reached in to get it. FML
Today, I was making Cup Noodles for breakfast. After microwaving it for 3 minutes, I carefully grabbed the cup to pour some water out, but my hand gave out and some water spilled on it. Now I have a burned hand and no noodles. FML
Today, I dropped a knife while cooking. Luckily it missed my foot, but only because it hit my knee. FML
Today, I sliced a deep gash into my thumb while carving up bagels. After putting a plaster on, I returned to my room to relax, where I lit a candle. The flame from my new lighter shot up, and set fire to the plaster on my thumb. Now I have a cut AND several burns. FML
Today, I managed to cut myself twice with a Swiss army knife. Stabbed in one hand and sliced a finger on the other. Good to know it's super sharp. FML
Today, I managed to spill piping hot oil all over my kitchen floor, thinking it was too hot to clean right then and there I left it for a few hours to cool. I forgot about it, and slipped over in it bashing my head into my cupboard handle. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

wait, why would you slam your hand? wouldn't it just add more pain to the burning?? so...I think you need to be more aware of what you're doing.

i think slamming their hand down was the OPs first impulse.

17, I found it kinda funny that you said it sounded weird as opposed to saying how much it hurt lol
RyGan 0
Because normal knives balance with the tip pointing upwards ..

your reflex was stupid op, it's like dropping a paper plate and it shatters... srsly?

27, there are dish holders which have a knife, spoon, and fork section which keeps them standing vertically. The knives, spoons, and forks are placed with the tip pointing up.

True #36 but I normally put the knives pointed side down in the dish holder so I don't injure myself.

Agreed. I don't know why the hell she didn't just pull her hand out right away.

Yeah, the body's natural reflex isn't to slam down...that sounds more like after you've considered the concequences of shooting your arm away, then it's your choice to have slammed it into the knife
