So, you know how on some microwaves, by pressing the '0' button one more time, you change the cooking time from two minutes to twenty minutes? Well, apparently I did that when trying to microwave some popcorn this afternoon. Since I'd gone outside starting the microwave, I didn't realize anything was wrong until I came back inside and had a microwave which was filling the house with smoke, and a flaming bag of popcorn inside of it.

Good news is nothing else in my house is damaged (at least not badly). But goddamnit, I hate popcorn now.

You can laugh, but remember, I have many, many knives at my disposal.

Now you know to be more careful.

Or just never make popcorn again. Or both, possibly.

Popcorn is a rather healthy snack with an aroma that is hard to resist.

Yes, a delicious aroma until it's burning. See how you like it then.

I have. That is why I am more careful now.

But didn't the smell of burning popcorn make you not want to make popcorn ever again?

I only like popcorn sometimes cause after you gotta floss. But if I didnt have it at all then I would never floss ever. And that shit's bad for you.

So maybe just have popcorn sometimes, like at the movies where they make it for you. Then you don't gotta worry about burning it either.

What, you only eat popcorn to convince you to floss? That seems a little bit crazy.

At the movies, it's so bad for you, though. Like virtually a heart attack in a little plastic bucket.

But it works. Cause popcorn bits are so damn annoying I gotta get them out right away.

Well just tell em no butter. Even if that's the best part.

That makes sense. And hey, I'm sure your dentist wouldn't mind it if makes you floss. Might even give you free popcorn? But I doubt it.

Exactly. The only point of movie-theater popcorn is the butter, but then I don't exactly want to have a heart attack before I'm 35.

Tenners. If you burn micorwavable popcorn I'm scared of what you would do to chicken feet.

Though did ya have to call the fire department?

It's not my fault the microwave's ultra-sensitive, okay?

No, it was only the popcorn bag that got caught on fire. And my microwave melted a bit, but nothing else damaged.

Anything would be ultra-sensitive if you stabbed at it, if you poke numbers as hard as you deflate a man's confidence when he tries to hit on you.

... Melted a bit? Guess it could have been worse.

I don't stab at the microwave, thank you very much. I would feel like an idiot if I jammed my fingers doing that.

I figured that my microwave probably should have exploded.

I'm sure you have some pretty strong fingers Tenners, able to pierce metal or something.

Probably. But it's cool that it didn't. Though I didn't know it was possible to royally fuck up on popcorn. Good job.

Maybe the chicken feet isn't a good idea.

That'd be an interesting superpower. Don't let the comic book producers get a hold of that idea.

I think I would be vastly amused if my microwave exploded. Although for the sake of my wallet, I prefer it having not. I don't know what damage an exploded microwave could cause.

Unless you need to microwave them, I should be okay.

You could always buy pre-popped popcorn.

That makes sense. However, my nostrils have the gross smell of burned popcorn deared into them. I think I'm off popcorn for a little while.

Its good to hear you're not hurt. Its always a shame when something bad happens to pretty girls.

Or you could ask how I know you're pretty.

[info]houseofdaggers

Yeah, but that seems like the obvious thing to do in this situation.

But sure. How do you know/think you know I'm pretty?

I don't, but I will after you meet me for dinner somewhere. Sounds like you could use a night away from the kitchen.

Really?

Sadly, mine was flaming, not just burnt.
