things that happen when you leave an open flame unattended: part 1

#so! guess whose workstation caught fire within the past 24 hours~? yeah. mine. ಠ‿ಠ #it wasn’t my fault though (trying to convince myself of this) #i did leave the tiny little flames unattended but they had nothing to do with the fires (i think…) #it was my coworker who did it really! (desperate rationalisation) dude poured these oddly flammable samples into the testers and walked off… #then the buggers caught fire </3 the flames got pretty huge. like big enough to roast marshmallows huge #the coworker who set ‘em on fire then tried to blow the flames out. to his credit the fires did go poof for like a second #but ig the samples were just too flammable bc the fires started again ಠ‿ಠ not fun #so yeah. he used a fire extinguisher and… left me to clean up the mess while he yeeted off to eat #so that was not fun at all. i just wanted to finish testing my samples mannnnnnnnn #dude did return to the station to clean up the rest of the mess a couple of hours later though… so that was better than nothing #hm. i think i’ve become somewhat desensitised to fires lmaoooooo #esp after my family’s old tv caught fire while my mother and brother were playing tetris on it a decade ago (rip) #the sight of the flames just blasting out of the sides of the tv was really funny though tbh #esp since it was one of those old box tvs from the early 2000s… good times #inedible blubbering
