Yeah, I realized after I first posted my fond remembrance that I had violated a sacred rule.

Then there was the time that Pat killed not just a pot but also all of our baby bottles and related paraphernalia. We ended up making an emergency 20-mile trip at 2 a.m. to a 24-hour grocery store to get replacements. And the house smelled like burnt rubber and plastic for weeks.

“Negligent potslaughter” is indeed the best term for what I did.

Arrr, many a pot has been ruined from late-night, post-drinking, so hungry, must eat, take a little nap first, awaken to smoke alarm, shenannigans.

I burnt half of a Uno’s pizza Saturday night myself. It’s hard to sleep in the morning once the burnt crust in the trashcan assaults your nose.

Perhaps not murder Jer as there twas no malice aforethought. More like, negligent potslaughter.

I did that once. I forget what kind of pot it was, but by the time we remembered it the bottom was glowing bright red. We rushed it quickly outside to the snow but it was too late. ‘Twas a good pot, too.

Aha! You didn’t even get as far as putting the ingredients in the pot. He died a lonely pot indeed.
