... you know how sometimes you might reach out & touch something that's too hot - like a pot cooking food, or hot food, or sip a hot drink, or like, even some art thing you're working on, hot glue gun or whatever- I think many people have done this, but I guess not everyone.

Anyhow - you reach out & touch it - even though you _know_ it's too hot, but you're just in such a rush or so eager to get to it you just somehow internally talk yourself into it, burn yourself & then think "gah, that was dumb - I knew that was hot"

yeah, why is that?

sociology, ideas, cooking, psychology
