Total Meltdown

You know, it's a losing battle. Trying to get people morons to understand that they need to either (1) empty that thimble-full of coffee left in the bottom of the pot into the sink and just put the pot aside; or (2) start a fresh pot.

Apparently, neither choice is adequate for the lazybones in my office. I came into the kitchen on my way out and saw the festering, bubbling black goo (and it wasn't oil in that there pot) and then the acrid smell hit me like a ton of bricks. I quickly got the pot off the burner and started it soaking in the sink.

I then found a piece of yellow copy paper and the only writing instrument within 200 yards: A big red Marks-A-Lot. I went to town:

I think I can speak for everyone else when I say that I don't feel like dying in a fire.

TURN IT OFF.

It's not that hard. Really. It's not.

Sheesh!
