Fucking with my ex, example #47:

We’d start a road trip, get about a mile or so down the road, and I’d say, “Did I leave the oven on?”

When I read about people worrying about that, I always wonder how many people don’t turn their oven off immediately before or after taking out the food they prepared in it?! Assuming that it’s been a while since the last time you used it, why would it ever be on?

Now forgetting to properly turn the oven on (turning only one of the two knobs necessary to turn it on) when preparing food, that has definitely happened to me too a few times. :(

Sometimes when I’m sick and the brain fog is worse, I’ll forget to turn off a burner, especially if I was using multiple burners, as I’ll have turned off some at least.

But my husband knows and usually we see after an hour or so. Because of this though nothing flammable is ever even close to the stove. I also check before bed in case. I think he does as well.
