I think the appropriate question here is, why was the wrench hot enough to burn you, and why was it next to your mouse?

i am sorry you got burnt....but look at the bright side, you will now be able to size 1/4-20 nuts with your forearm and i doubt there are many people who can say that

Tytus' story as told to girls:

There I was, in the blistering desert sun, changing a flat tire on the Dodge Caravan of the Little Sisters of Mercy. Sister Mary Patrick had been holding the tire wrench for me when ...

Looks like it worked pretty good! I still have a scar on my leg where solder dropped while I was wearing shorts. I was in my teens. Hope your's isn't so permanent.

Seriously, Ty, be sure to keep that slathered in cocoa butter or it WILL scar badly. See a dermatologist - it's cool now, but not when you're interviewing for General Manager.

Been there, know that.

Re: pic: Branded bt a 7/16

i just want to make it clear that i Did not do this intentionally . the bottom of the wrist is in fact a very common place for burns because of how people put there arms down on things. I'm not CrAzY and i didn't burn myself to be cool. i was just careless and left a 500°F wrench on my desk in front of my mouse.

Re: pic: Branded bt a 7/16

yeah the cocoa butter thing is an old wifes tale . .it actually makes the burn worse, but seriously see a doctor pref a dermatologist . . or you may have to see a plastic surgeon when you get older.

Re: pic: Branded bt a 7/16

I beg to differ... If used after the burn has healed it will get rid of most of the scar. I have been burned in the face doing something stupid that will not be mentioned here, and a majority of the scarring has gone away due to the use of cocoa butter.

I knew that seeing Tytus with a blowtorch was going to lead to trouble.
