Wow. It's been a long time since I did something quite that retarded.
Put some eggs on to boil when I got home, as I have stumbled upon a heretofore undiscovered fondness for putting sliced eggs on my sandwiches. I then sat down and messed around online.
A few minutes ago, I became distracted by what I took to be the smell of some jackwad burning tires outside...
Now I'm burning incense like fucking crazy to get the smell of singed eggshell out of the place. And I hope to hell I didn't ruin my favorite pot.
If it helps, I was once cooking chickpeas (they take FOREVER) and burnt them so bad my house smelled like ass for a week and the $65 pan had to be shitcanned. Ditto with rice once, but with a much cheaper pan.
