I was sitting here all depressed because someone hates me for no reason ( :( ) when i heard something explode.
I went into the kitchen and see the counter next to the sink ablaze. I just went "Oh FUCK" and saw that the paper towels were starting to burn too, so I grabbed those and threw them to prevent them from making the fire worse.
I grabbed the water squirty thing from the sink and sprayed it on the fire: bad idea; it got worse. I think there was some olive oil or some shit that was on the strainer that was burning. The fire shot up the wall and was inches from setting the curtain on fire ;-;.
I searched for a fire extinguisher and found one. I then removed the pin and pulled the trigger...nothing happened.
I ran down stairs and into the basement looking for another, which I could not find. This was a bad idea since when I came back the fire had gotten worse.
I then just grabbed a huge pot and put it over the candle and sprayed water over the rest. Luckily that worked or I would have been fucked.
Here is a pic of what was left. doodthing;

I don't think we have one either, or if we do it's buried under a ton of shit in the basement and I'd never find it in time.

Oh, because some candles were exploding a few years ago, a certain kind of gel candles.

I guess it was sort of like a molotov cocktail with flaming gas shooting eveyrwhere and it being sticky and burning baddood;

Smoke alarms? Same here.

My bulldog does the same whenever you're trying to get something done. At least you're ok. I'd get a smoke alarm while you're at it.
This is why I never light candles unless I want to play the Wii or it's a birthday. You never fucking know when they'll explode and kill you.
Glad to hear you're okay, don't panic so much next time. <3

I didn't panic. baddood;
I ran because my kitchen was on fire and I wanted to put it out, not because I was panicking baddood;

I misunderstood the note of urgency during your retelling of the events
BTW fire extinguishers are easy to steal. Not from places where you buy them, but from like hotels and schools. doodthing;
U NAH COOKEEN
ya du
What the hell? My mom is trying to say I started the fire... doodthing;
Why doesn't she believe you?
Quote from: Nyerp on September 29, 2008, 12:48:55 PM
Why doesn't she believe you?
I don't know.
She was like "What happened" and I told her that the candle exploded and set the counter on fire, then she asked who lit the candle and I told her it was my aunt.
She then was like "are you sure you didn't start the fire? :0"
she still doesn't believe me, because I obviously have a history of setting the kitchen on fire psyduck;
Grease fire. Water makes it worse.
