So my girlfriend tried to burn the house down again...
Well I came home tonight after work, and I step into my house... and there's a funny burning smell. Okay, so Kristy's cooking again, burning something isn't unusual. But I don't smell any food. Kristy comes out and I ask her if she burned anything-nope.
Btw, Kristy doesn't have a sense of smell. So it's up to me to locate the source of the funny smell. I check the kitchen, it's not coming from the stove. It's not coming from the dryer that was recently on either. Well, let's check the bathroom. DAYAM, the hallway smells STRONG. I open up the bathroom door, and nothing.
Well then that leaves the computer room...dear god, not the computer room! It has a few computers (they're all old, but they're mine!), and a lot of game stuff. I open the door... AGH! Smoke! I think we have a winner here. I go to the main computer's surge protector to check it out, Kristy checks minor surge protector on the other side. Kristy finds what's burning, it's my soldering iron. What? I haven't used that thing in months!
It would seem that when Kristy was in here on the computer, she plugged in the small lamp I have on my desk. Or so she thought, she actually plugged in my soldering iron. Which was sitting on top of an old SNES control pad. The funny burning smell was the controller melting.
D'oh.
