A couple of weeks ago, I was hankering for some leftovers of my mean spaghetti, which is loaded with sauce and filled with meat. So I lopped a bunch in a bowl, covered it with a paper towel to prevent splattering, and popped it in the microwave. The microwave is situated above the oven, so I had to reach up to do this.

After three minutes or so, I opened the microwave door to hear delightful sizzling. I reached up, put both hands on the bowl (which was still covered with the paper towel), and picked it up. Halfway down to the stovetop, I unknowingly tilted the bowl and the molten spaghetti sauce burned my hand.

Out of surprise and pain, I threw most of the bowl's saucy, meaty contents all over the wall and upwards onto the underside of the microwave, as well as pouring down the oven's control panel and stovetop. The actual spaghetti bowl stayed in my hands. Since I didn't want it to stain, I opted to clean it up right away instead of finding a camera, so I will try now to recreate it in paint...

Any awesome spills or messes of your own? Pictures or artistic recreations are welcome.  :3

The microwave is kinda per-man-anent; it came that way with the apartment. XD It's convenient, but dangerous.

(Spelling error I thought was funny. X3)

Accidentally dropped two jars of Dijionaisse from a six foot height onto the floor just in front of a customer's feet, where both of them promptly smashed and sprayed glass (luckily she wasn't cut) and mustardy mayo all over her feet. Cause she was predictably wearing flip flops. Cue extremely angry customer and me in tears.

I'm pretty accident prone though to be fair. I have actually managed to trip myself while standing still. I've cracked my head open, chipped my tooth, and even managed to punch myself in the face. In front of my department manager. He ignored me entirely 😀

Sorry for off topic, but why does it say Trudi Speed wrote it?

lately i dropped my dinner when taking it from the microwave. it's amasing how far curry-coated rice can jump up the walls. blasted stuff is a pain to scrub from the paint work, still have a few pale yet vivid yellow patches that refuse to fade.

you silly, you should have done the usual hand protection of long sleeves!

Long sleeves in 95 F weather, nooooo thanks! XDDD But yeah, I should have used oven mitts. (You're gonna hit 10,000 posts~!)

The curry, I love envisioning it happening. XD

I dropped a pizza upside down onto my hand a couple of months ago, when trying to get it out of the oven. You know, melted cheese & tomato sauce burns.

People who know me know that sooner or later, i'm going to spill something. It has come to a point where "butterfingers" has become an appropriate nickname. Things that I have dropped or spilled off the top of my head include: cereal bowls, pancakes, ketchup bottles that were squeezed too hard, a peanut butter jelly sandwich that fell with the condiments face first, brand new drinks just given to us in restaurants and many other cups fell to the same fate, a bag of chips falling upside down; and just last week a yogurt cup just fell out after I opened the refrigerator and popped.

Many of these things has happened more than once. It's like food doesn't like me. Or maybe my perception is off or something. I don't know, it's one of those two.

Ironically enough, the first time I ever had a Butterfingers it slipped out of my hand.
