Christmas warmth

By Anonymous - This FML is from back in 2010 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I was straightening my hair for a Christmas Eve party. I put the hot straightener down on my bed for a second, and zoned out enough to sit squarely on it a few moments later. I now have burns on my ass cheek, and a six-hour party at which I can't even sit down. FML

Seriously? Leaving strainers or any heat appliances on bedding is an invitation for a fire to start! Come on now! Maybe it's better it burned your ass than burned your house down.

I must say, you've got a hot ass OP! Woo wee!

I knew it was coming, I just didn't know when! (That's what she said!)

There is no way you have a 3rd degree burn anywhere on your body. Not only would you be physically ill, the hospital would admit you for observation and infection control. You'd probably need skin grafting, and you'd need all sorts of medications. 3rd degree burns are no joke...people can die from them. Even a 2nd degree burn can be pretty serious. You'd still be in no shape to go to a party, let alone stand...maybe even walk if it's on your bum. Like a 3rd degree burn, you'd also be physically sick, You'd be in some pretty extensive bandaging, and extreme pain.

I am glad you said that and saved me the hassle of explaining the severity of a third degree burn!

Dumbass. Who leaves a straightener on a bed anyways? YDI.

9 probably said something sarcastic or rude. But it's not surprising that he commented on her thread. He's basically stalking me and Bree here.

I highly doubt that it is 3rd degree burn.

I doubt it's 3rd degree- I have a feeling you just mean a really red, painful burn. But anyway, I would say YDI... if I hadn't accidentally elbowed a hot curling iron on my dresser the other day! lol. Happens to the best of us. Happy Holidays! :)

geez... apparently over-exaggerating is ridiculous nowadays...

If you have third degree burns and still intend to go to a party, you deserve your necrotising skin, you dumb moron. I hate people who ignore medical things to 'have fun' or 'fit in'. Twit.
