To be really fucking annoyed with MY BIL?

[QuestionableMouse]

Making caramel at home today. Was just about done when he and my sister called in. I warned them both not to touch the bowl because it was still extremely hot.

Fucking muppet BIL sticks his finger straight in it. I genuinely can't believe he did it (he's the type to touch a gate with a wet paint sign to see if it's actually wet!)

Cue him screaming in pain and needing to be driven to A&E to get it seen to. No doubt he'll have to have time off sick from work, because he works in a wet fish shop and I don't see how he can work with a bandaged finger.

I'm annoyed because he's apparently blaming me for leaving the bowl out! Apparently saying "do not touch that, it's extremely hot", wasn't good enough.

Every village needs one.

This!

I with you! It's caramel it cannot be wasted!

Hopefully the dipstick will think twice about putting his grubby fingers in someone's food. That is beyond grim!

If there is any blame cast your way make sure to retort by asking why he decided to put his finger in food that wasn’t his.

He’s a dope on many levels

I’d have just scooped out the bit around his finger mark and saved the rest. Surely the heat killed all the germs anyway.

Perhaos you shouldn't have warned him Op as he obviously didn't believe you & had to find out for himself🙄

Dirty bugger. Who the hell sticks their fingers in other people's food!

YANBU

When my DDs were 2 yrs old she put her fingers on the gas hob while asking “is that hot?”

Is your BIL any older than my DD was?

What an utter numpty!

Don't worry about his finger in your caramel - it would be so hot any germs would be destroyed.

I hope your sister told him he was a twat and it was entirely his own fault?

He moaned about you leaving the bowl out, when you were literally in the process of making it...

What were you thinking? I always keep all my pans and bowls put away in the cupboard while I'm cooking with them. 🙄

But that's christmas sorted right? A chocolate scented candle (with instruction not to eat), selection of fruit shaped soaps (with instruction not to eat), bull dog clips various sizes (with CLEAR instruction not to put on testicles).

In my family this would be the comedy gift from the gods which would run, and run 😂

If it's hot enough to burn him, it's hot enough to kill the lurgy he gave it.

I'd 100% definitely still eat it. While staring right at him.

Oh Gawd knows where his finger had been before he stuck it in the caramel 😱

Ignore.

And possibly give him a Darwin Award for Christmas

You don’t need start again, the temp will kill any germs

also I don’t think his germs would be intelligent enough to multiply

What a rude twat. I’d be laughing at his big bandaged finger.

I don’t think his germs would be intelligent enough to multiply

😂

It brings this quote to mind...

Honestly op he sounds a muppet but he should be able to go to work still, I burnt my fingers quite badly a couple of years ago and could still work(with pain admittedly) it was across 3 fingers with blisters on each.

Wouldn't have occurred to me to not use it. Would people really chuck it away because someone's finger dipped in it for 1 seconds?

I'll attach a picture but I'll put something else first in case anyone in squeamish.

The first picture didn't attach, typical!

He should be saying sorry to you for sticking his mucky fingers in the bowl.. Who does that at someone else's house. So rude and serves him right and may teach him a lesson not to do that again.

He had to go to A & E, what a dickhead.
