Ok so I'm home sick. Wake up, put the kettle on to make tea. Go Imgur for a bit... ya... we know I was on here for like an hour.
Look in the kettle, ALL I SAW WAS RED RINGS! When I picked it up and the bottom gave out. Holy Ducking Shit! First thought after I turned off the stove... GET THE CAMERA! fml... you see what I have become?
The aftermath...
That element is done...
See that little guy in the bottom of the stove sump? THAT IS AN INGOT OF ALUMINUM (I think this was aluminum...)
GF for scale... no I dont have any bannanas but I am a 28 yo man.
The top to bottom dripping....
One trip to Target, new Stainles Steel kettle and 8" element.
Tea, and I feel like SHIT, so fuck me right?!
Dog tax - This was Hon Solo after his first bath.
Old pup passed away but still worthy of posting.

I don't see why Americans don't embrace the electric kettle. Seriously, you have electric everything but a fucking kettle.

Would love to but he is not with us any longer. About 2 months after this (4 months old) he had a brain aneurysm. This is my favorite photo.
MonteBurns
oh. I'm sorry :(

Ya me too but he was a good kid. He died over 3 years ago and has been in my heart ever since.

As an adult with ADHD I have melted two of these http://imgur.com/uiNgmSi by going off, forgetting and letting it boil dry. 1/2

Now, my wife only allows me to heat water in the microwave. :-( Sad, but legitimate punishment.

Still trying to find a good medication that works... without making my brain feel like it's in glue. Impulse control and inattention.
