I have a weird phobia of dead things... D:
It's so strange!

It's one of the reasons I stopped eating meat...
The idea of eating a dead carcass freaks me out.

Even things like dead flowers or dead plants scares me.
(If they look alive, I'm okay. Like, if it's still green and colorful, fine. But dry, brown, or twisted dead plants.. NAH!)

[Den]

I'm mildly pyrophobic...I don't mind lighting kitchen matches and long-neck lighters, but anything where my fingertips might be in contact with flame is nope.

... Basically, anything that could hurt my fingertips is nope. Though I still play with my x-acto, despite having sliced my middle finger once time with it on accident.

:] I can light a match, but not by striking it. <x} I get too scared it'll heat my fingers too hotly. It won't burn me, but I just feel like it will.. >->;

[mdom]

Turning on the oven with a match is a dangerous sport <.< why can't it be electric

[littl3chocobo]

i'm afraid of glass. it's a bit twisted since i collect glass bottles with vim but if it is thin glass or broken glass or glass with a non-rounded edge i get cold and sweaty

Ava - Makes sense to be a bit turned off by dead things. Since living things tend to want to keep living. It is also painful for us to go through loss, so perhaps there's a subconscious link going on there.

mdom, the reason we have gas stoves is because they cook things better. Electric takes time to heat up. Which in turn makes your pots and pans take longer to heat up. Plus electric takes time to cool down. Which in turn keeps your pots and pans hot for longer, over cooking the dish.
Then again, maybe there are good electric stoves out there this day and age. But those must cost a fortune.

[Merskelly Metalien]

:] Electric is way easier to clean.
Never owned a fancy stove before tho. :/ Only seen them in the houses of the wealthy money people.

[Burnt Rice]

Are they easier? I've never had anything but electric, but the few gas ones I've seen looked to be the same difficulty to clean. Maybe if you had those fancy electric ones where the elements are built into the stove, with glass over top.

[mdom]

c'mon technology! Man walk on the moon but we still risk burning our fingers to cook chicken!!!

[Kitalpha Hart]

Last time I used an electric stove I burned my sleeve
I grew up with and use a propane stove
Which is nice during a power outage cuz then we can still have hot food
I'd say and heat but that's what the wood burning fireplace is for lol

[Witchchylde]

Why?
Why do you elude me, Rich Shoulder syrup?!

[mdom]

As for one in Galla's thread xD

[Stabbsworth]

i have plenty of rich shoulder syrup. ;)

[Kory]

We used to have a range in my old house...
I liked the range much better than those gas stoves and those ones with those curly things on them...


You know what I mean, right?

I liked the range because ti was easy to clean... and it cooled faster I think.

These old stove things are annoying! >:T

[KittyBeary]

Shoulder syrup and sprinkles XD

and lots of pasties
