So yeah I was making dinner with Camille at her apartment when she realized that we didn't have all the ingredients we needed. She ran to the store but I decided to stay and watch the boiling water just to be safe. So as I was watching water boil I got bored and went to get a glass of water. As I stood there drinking my water I noticed that the pot looked orange. When I lifted the pot to investigate I found that the entire burner was in flames. I gave the flame a puff of air hoping to extinguish the small fire. Unfortunately for me my plan failed and the end result was an even larger flame. AH! So thinking quickly, but not clearly, I threw my glass of water at the flame. (In hind sight this was a bad idea, water does not put out grease fires it makes them spread). Luckily for me my plan worked, the water put out the flame and I managed not to burn down an entire apartment complex despite my best efforts. Unfortunately the entire apartment was full of smoke so I started opening doors and windows. Just my luck Camille's roommate came home just then, and there I am in their apartment now so filled with smoke that it made the lights seem dim. Their only comment was to complain that since I opened the door their gas bill would be higher...

This story is a bit old, but since many of you haven't heard it I thought it was worth telling
haha bummer
that picture looks just like you! :)
I am glad you didn't burn the apartment down. You are lucky that you didn't go with Camille to the store!
Why did the burner catch on fire? That's crazy! They should cook you dinner for saving the day.
