--------------------------
i was sitting at home, hungry, and decided it would be a good idea to make a sandwich. no big deal, right? well i didn't want to wait for the oven to heat up and i didn't want to eat it cold, so i tried something i'd seen in a reddit post a few months ago. i flipped my toaster onto its side and put in each half of the sandwich. after a few seconds, i started smelling something burning. turning around, i see smoke bellowing from the toaster. i have never cleaned my toaster, nor has anyone else that i know of, so it was full of long forgotten crumbs that i hadn't thought of that was now burning in my toaster.

here's where the fuck up really begins -

my toaster doesn't have a cancel button, so i immediately unplugged it and attempted to fish the sandwich halves out with my bare hands, because obviously i wasn't going to be dumb enough to stick a fork in it. i was very careful not to touch the sides, however apparently i wasn't careful enough. my hand grazed the hot part of the toaster and i jerked back, unintentionally taking the toaster with me. as soon as the weight of the toaster was off of the counter, it fell off my hand and plummeted onto my foot. cursing ensued. then i started to feel the pain in my hand. i looked at it, and it looked like i had set my hand down on a grill. between the pain in my hand and the pain in my foot, i said fuck the sandwich and sat on the couch, where i am now typing this post with one hand and no sandwiches.

 


edit - i appreciate people telling me about the fork thing, but in my adrenaline filled brain i just thought that it was a bad idea to stick a fork in a toaster. next time i decide to almost light my toaster on fire i'll be sure to remember a fork is fine in an unplugged toaster.
