I just remembered a whole experience with bagels today...
Some months ago, I woke up on a Saturday morning before everyone else and being stupid, I didn't go back to sleep. So I skipped down the hall and to the kitchen to make myself some breakfast. I took along my favorite book. Well, I had my nose stuck in the book all the time while I pulled the bagels from the freezer (my mother keeps them there so they won't get spoiled...). I was totally distracted while I put one in the microwave to defrost them and instead of 3 minutes I put 30 minutes. So I sat down and waited to hear the horrendously noisy beeping that came when the microwaving was done. Well, some minutes passed by and I was completely immersed in my book. Too immersed. But I was interrupted in my reading when the stench of burning food met my nose. I looked up and saw smoke flooding out into the kitchen. I ran to the microwave and yanked it open, staring at the charred lump of unrecognizable appearance.
Moral of the Story: Don't read. It'll save your eyesight and your house.
