We are not the idiots who put a ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY WATT lightbulb in a cheap plastic desk lamp. It was almost very bad, as the light was only on for about ten minutes before the acrid (and dare I say toxic) smoke of melting plastic drifted out of the bedroom. I shudder to think what could have happened if we had left the house or been outside.

Wow. That is scary. Cool pic of the dripping plastic, though.

Wow – not cool (in a cool kind of way – loved the dripping black plastic). Lucky the house is still there (which is not your house, yes?).

Wow. I never — and I mean NEVER EVER — pay attention to those wattage warnings on lamps. I think you just reformed me.

OH MY GOSH!
That is so dangerous! I didn’t even know they make a bulb that high.
Was it used for interrogations or something?

That is not a sight any mom wants to see when there are little ones who might touch it curiously. Glad everyone is ok.

Wow. Glad you are all ok!
