When I was maybe 3 (maybe 4 - it’s a little fuzzy), I remember safety pinning a towel around the collar of my shirt so I could be like Superman (we had recently seen it in the theater). The towel also had frayed ends, and ended up in the ashtray along side my mom’s cigarette. I remember my mom panicking trying to get those safety pins off when the towel caught fire. We never were allowed to safety pin towels to our clothes again after that. 😂

Also I love how my kids know the cigarette lighter in the car as a place to plug in a car charger and nothing else.

I thought the cigarette lighter in the car was a rubber stamp and I’d get the icon marked on my hand.

Yes, I burned myself.
