Things that burn!
 

With a bit of an influence from the headache thread, heres the question: Have you ever been seriously burned, and how?

Most of my burns came from being a dumbass, like lighting my shoe on fire with fire crackers, boiling water with no shirt on, puting my hand on a burner forgetting it was hot. Torching my hand with melted liquid sugar (leaving a huge friggen blister the size of a golf ball). Burning my hand grabbing a log from a fire. Puting my hand on a fire stove(those gas stoves with the open sides). Any way, Im a dumbass burning the hell out of my hands.

Whats your story?:confused:

I've never been scarred by burns. I got burnt by a coal from a hookah while in the back of a van that was moving last week.

by hookah do you mean hooker?

I spilled boiling water on my leg last year, just above the knee. I was wearing long underwear and when I took them down to see the extent of the damage all the skin peeled off. An oval-shaped area about 4 inches by 3 inches, totally raw and exposed, full-on 2nd degree style. I could not walk for a week. Changing the dressings was incredibly painful, yet I was able to take care of it myself and have no scarring. I credit Mrs. Clone's remarkable knowledge of herbal remedies.

No. By hookah I meant hookah.

once i was at a freinds house and we covered a pizza box is lighter fluid and started burning it. then everything went crazy and we started rolling in it.
then we found boat gas. we filled a bottle up with it and threw it in there. the fire burned a little hole in the bottle and the gas started shooting out and landed on the house, so we started beeting on it to put it out.. and it went out
But then! this dumbass named Joey started beating the gas filled bottle with a metal pole.
the burning gas shot on his head and we had to put him out. he got his hair burned a bit and his ear. all this happend in December when it was raining out
crazy buisness

he means a hookah pipe. like this

oh, my bad.

When I worked in a kitchen: Ceramic plates right out of the steam-dryer, and oil from the deep frier. Only a drop on my finger, but holy shit...

One time I was melting plastic bags (if you've never done this it is quite enjoyable. When the bags catch fire they drip little balls of flame while making a buzzing noise) and one of the fireballs landed on my finger. It just created a blister and a scar which is still visible.

the only scar i have is on my pointer finger, i was being a pyro and burning stuff and burnt a cd. the cd just melts and then dripped onto my finger.

woah me and nomadic posted basically the same stories at the same time.

Weird.

I was burned with the end of a cigarette once. That kinda hurt.

I got burnt once getting on a motorbike. My ankle touched the exhaust pipe and I heard it sizzle.

Had that happen to a friend recently. Needless to say, the burn looked pretty painful.

yeh, and it left a scar.

Hambbbbuuurrrrrggggggggerrrrrr laddddddddddy.

No, I have not been seriously burned, but I work with burn patients a lot, and it is not something you want to have happen to you. Extreme pain and discomfort.

The worst burn I've ever had was probably while heating a stone in my art class, I figured it had cooled off after a moment and went to move it with index finger, and SIZZLE. It hurt, BAD. It blistered in seconds.

I always burn myself.
On the oven, the medal part of the lighter, lighting the pipe, I always burn myself with my smokes.
Nothing on purpose ad nothing serious.

EDIT: I was actually going to list things that burn hahahah. Pretty much everything burns.

the first time i had weed i burned my finger pretty bad trying to light the pipe but forgetting to suck in.

A few years back I was making some garlic bread sticks on a baking sone that had metal handles. When the bread was finished cooking in the oven for 20 minutes on 450 degrees, I grabbed some pot-holders and pulled the bread out of the oven. I set the baking stone down on the stove range and put the pot-holders down. Without even thinking, I turned around and grabbed the metal handle of the baking stone sans pot holders and got second degree burns on the palms of my hands. I went to the hospital where they wrapped my hands in guaze and gave me some mild painkillers and some sort of balm that I had to apply to my burned hands twice a day. The burns lasted for over two weeks. It felt horrible.

Also, when I was a baby/toddeler, my mother spilled some hot tea somewhere on my body. I don't know where, but I got burned pretty badly, I guess.

I think she did it on purpose.

Fucking sweet hookah. I had one for a short time. But I had to get rid of it.

that reminds me. once at grandmas when i was 4, i seen the stove burners, and it was black so didnt think it was hot. but it was and i got burned.
i kept my hand in cold water to ease the pain for the next few weeks

kingcoffee- that's not mine. just in case you were wondering. i dont ever go out of my way to get any type of drug

That's ok. I was just commenting on the sweetness of the hookah.

when I was burger king when I was very little, my mom spilled hot coffee down the back of my head and back. I had a huge scar down my back but its pretty well gone now.

Napalm

today, my hand. on the food oven at work. probably should have put it under running water, but there wasn't really time so, it has a crazy scar forming up the side of my right palm already. hey my day was more punk than I thought.

sewer lines full of gasoline. they burn good.

I used to burn myself frequently--I somehow can't remember that solder is hot.

One real bad burn didn't leave a scar. On my bike trip across the country we were camping in Colorado Springs and someone had some dope. The combo of not smoking in months and the altitude hit me pretty hard. I decided it would be a good idea to close a burning candle lantern with my thumb. That hurt like a MFer.

The past six months I've been a baker, night shift. I burn myself atleast once a day. What an old thread.

Bibles.

I was making some costumes for my band and I got quite a bit of molten glue gun glue on my thigh (I was wearing shorts). Cause I didn't want to jump up and ruin my work I had to wait til I'd finished the bit I was on before dealing with it. Picking glue out of a burn is not pleasant.

just the other day, wife took out huge pot from oven w/ roast beef in it and I didn't know... I grabbed the handle to open it and it felt like electricity was gripping my to it..... fucking hurt, and blistered.

I've had plenty of really bad sunburns

I've had plenty of roach burns on my lips

once we were making a huge pile of things to burn in a parking lot.... poured tons of gas all over it and made a gas trail away to light it. when I lit the gas there was a humongous vapor poof that singed most of my hair. luckily I was wearing a hat.

it's all trivial and humorous compared to my friend Dan Caro (I mentioned before) who was burned as a toddler. he has no hands and severely scarred all over his body
