So...the jello burning thing...
Me and my friend were like, OOH, let's make JELLO! when we were like, 10 or so. And so we mixed the stuff up in the pan and turned the burner on and went outside.
And my mom came to get us, yelling about burning down the house, and the jello had boiled over and was everywhere and the pan was totally black inside.
And me and that same friend were playing with a chemistry set one time, and used the stove burner instead of the janky bunsen burner the kit came with, and there was a roll of paper towels RIGHT NEXT TO THE BURNER and...POOF! Up in smoke...and my mom came in, yelling about burning down the house...
And me and that SAME. FRIEND. were lighting stuff on fire in the drive way one time with a magnifying glass, and my mom came out, yelling about burning down the house, and we both started singing the song at the same time...
Enough about my awesomely fiery childhood.
