Dear fellow residents,

[403]

If you have to stand next to the stove continuously in order to not forget that you're cooking something? Please do so, or refrain from attempting to cook. We have cheap gas ranges which offer poor control and have a nasty tendency to go out on any setting less than "high". If you walk away, you're either taking a chance on your apartment filling with gas, or your food catching fire. Both of which typically require the other 600-odd people who live here to evacuate.

No love,
- Me

I baked a cherry pie this weekend, and forgot it was in the oven. Thankfully it was not yet finished baking when I went to check.

I imagine me walking over to find it a charcoal lump, after being in there for three days, after forgetting about it, and wondering why it was so freakish hot in my place for three days.

But then after eating the pie I developed a split down my molar, and it has been hurting. Hurr ... -.-

Absolutely. (And I'm saying this as someone who's formerly guilty of being slightly scatterbrained when it comes to cheap ovens that burn food too quickly.)
