Don't be stupid heh. i just learned that shania twain has a fancy song about "don't be stupid" at any rate, i learned to not pick up my rototiller by the muffler because it's f*cking hot.

my left hand is sitting in a bowl of cold water. i know better. don't hurt yourselves, folks. you don't have to be smart, but don't be stupid.

also, ow.
i was hoping for more "more inside." oh well

I can eat a whole bag (vending machine size) of Skttles in one mouthful. One day, I suppose, I will choke.

If I had a nickle for everytime my hand ended up in a bowl of ice water cause I was being stupid well ..I'd have a few nickles.

At least you HAVE to rototiller to hurt yourself on.

I'm jealous (of the tool, not the hand).

ow. Oh did you grab it in s.l.o.w. m.o.t.i.o.n? Seems like when I do things like that it happens in slow motion with this "noooooooooo" in the back of my mind as I watch myself grab the insanely hot object.

That's why there's this on mine:

Of course I thought it meant "no high fives".

I was loading it onto the truck. The muffler seemed like such a handy thing to grab on to. Live and learn, live and learn.

danf: My rototiller is a purely temporary thing until I get six-grand to the good and can buy a reciprocating spader. And meeshell, I pretty much grabbed it in slow motion. At least in the sense that my hand stuck to it.

On the upside, my hand doesn't hurt anymore and, bless it, I am utterly incapable of remembering pain. Two stroke engines remember, and they bide their time, and they are waiting to kill me.

I did that with pizza the other day. Not only did I have to hold ice on my hand, my pizza ended up face down on the floor. Lesson learned: Don't do this with pizza.

Ow ow ow.

Confession of stupidity:

- Don't use your hand to pull out (or push in) the toaster oven rack when it's been heating for more than a minute or so.
