Earlier this evening: Cleaning the dishes, I put a pot in the sink and started filling it with hot water. In the meantime I clean the counter with the kitchen sponge. Then I run the sponge under the extremely hot water. The sponge absorbs the water for a second or two, then it hits my hand. “Yeow!” Hand removed from water stream, water turned off. Then, I squeeze the sponge out… “Yeow! $@^%!” The sponge, of course, was full of the extremely hot water. Ok, that was dumb, back to the dishes, the pot specifically which was just filled with excruciatingly hot water. Yep. Three strikes, I’m a moron.
