No matter how heavy that infant bucket car seat gets and no matter how much else you're trying to carry all by yourself, do not think you can rest one side of the carrier on your hip and hold the outer side while you walk. Even if you have curvy hips, it will suddenly slip off your hip (while your hand is still firmly holding the outside edge), flip over on the way down and land face down on the cement of your garage floor. With your baby strapped in it. DH did something similar - ran out of the house to go to work one morning wearing dress shoes with very little tread, slipped on the wet steps coming down from our porch and fell forwards onto the concrete sidewalk. Unfortunately he was carrying our infant son at the time, but had the presence of mind to roll sideways a bit so that he hit the sidewalk with his shoulder and back rather than falling on top of our tiny son. Of course I scooped up the crying baby and inspected him for injury while poor DH lay on the ground with the breath knocked out of him, completely ignored - but if he hadn't figured out at that point he was now number 2 in the family behind DS, he learned it that day

Don't have sex after eating hot wings.....particularly if your SO likes the 5 alarm version. The corollary to this is when your SO makes chili and uses hot peppers, the capsaicin will stick around on their hands even though they've washed them. And by experience, milk is better than water in alleviating the burn. Do not have sex with your husband after he has been cleaning hot peppers from the garden. Sex and pepper relish do not mix. The capsaicin leeches through the vinyl gloves onto your hands after a while and transfers .....ahem... to other body parts.
Way to kill the mood.

HA! That reminds me of an "Urban Legend" from around here when the guy mixed up the KY and Icy Hot tubes. It is how my friend found out her BF cheated on her. And since I know the two people involved are real is it still considered an Urban Legend?

ow ow ow ow...OWWWW~!!! Exactly..... What happens is it starts out as a nice warmth that feels good. Doesn't stay there long though, it rapidly progresses to a full out OUCH IM ON FIRE! And it sticks around far longer than you'd think.

Don't have sex in a hot tub filled with potatoes and hot wings.

Don't put a pot of water on high heat and then go listen to someone tell a story. I forgot about the pot and when I got back to it, the pot had melted. I was so embarassed.
Don't follow the example of the new college graduate at his first job in the North. When it snowed, he thought he was so much smarter that all his neighbors scraping their windshields. He got a bucket of very hot water and threw it on his car windshield.
He was so surprised that his windshield shattered into a million pieces.

And it sticks around far longer than you'd think. I asked my wife to put Icy Hot on my back ONE time. Like you said it went from "oh that feels nice and warm" to "wow, that actually gets a little hot" then very quickly to "HOLY SHIT MY BACK IS ON FIRE WIPEITOFF WIPEITOFF WIPEITOFF RIGHT NOW DEVIL-WOMAN!!" So..no desire to see how it feels anywhere else LoL! And that was just your back. Imagine tissue a lot more tender.......

Don't lean over a gas burner on the stove to light a cigarette when you're drunk. The stench of burning hair takes a loooooooooooong time to leave your nostrils. Ugh.
