      A grease fire in an electric toaster? Nothing a bowl of water couldn’t cure. /s

      (/s because it would explode and could electrocute you at the same time)

        It’s best to submerge it completely. A bathtub is the easiest option for most people.

        WTF is the point of making a joke, putting an idiot-“s” then a disclaimer?

        If someone takes you seriously that’s a Darwin award waiting to happen and the human race will improve slightly

            As an ex-young person and a non native english speaker, definitely agree. Back when I was younger and on Reddit I have missed satire on many different jokes cause the intentions of commenters would be hard to deduce.

            Thankfully I wasn’t stupid enough to do something like put out an electric fire with water, but there has most definitely been a case of someone killing themselves because they couldn’t tell whether a comment was a joke or not.

              It’s much more fun when no one understands it’s a joke. /s btw

              At the risk of getting obliterated with down votes like you are, I enjoyed your perspective and agree with you at the surface level.

      Why would it catch fire in a toaster but not under a grill where there’s an actual flame?

      You’d never get that toaster clean again, but I’m not sure it would catch fire.

        FYI, the fat dripping from steak does actually cause flare ups and sometimes even sustained flames in grills. This isn’t dangerous in a grill because it’s designed to cook with fire at high temps. But it can ruin your steak if you aren’t paying attention.
