Oh Christ I have done something incredibly stupid, please can I have some advice?

[CripplinglyStupid]

Cooking this evening. I am not a big cook. Made a delicious dinner, and then went to move the pot off the glass hob.

The cast iron casserole dish won't move. It appears to have welded to the glass. It overboiled a tiny bit when cooking and I thought nothing of it but now I cannot fucking get it off.

I live with flatmates in a rented house. A quick google warns me the glass will probably shatter if I just wrench it, not that I think I can anyway because it is stuck fast. A website recommended a long thin razor and some aerosol lubricant - which I do not have and can't easily get on a Sunday evening, but I have had a try with a sachet of sex lube and a fish slice.

Please help me! I absolutely cannot shatter the glass and the pot belongs to my flatmates so I can't just leave it there. We all use each other's things so she won't mind that I've used it, but I can see her becoming alarmed if I have to admit I can't get it off the glass. Pot cost nearly £90 and I do not want to have to replace it.

What should I do? What might work?

Pineapple rings

[Whataboutnodetox]

Do you pop a cherry in the middle of pineapple rings still?

[LumelaMme]

Sex lube and a fish slice sounds like it could be a record by Spinal Tap.
That turned my afternoon all the way up to 11.

[AlpacaLypse]

I too have recommended this for consideration for Classics!

[HairySubject]

I don't actually know if it is flammable by the way, just another thing to consider...

I have got my sex lube and fish slice in my ofrs but I only had cherry... do I need to source tropical OP, I know durex do a pina colada version? could double up to sterilise wounds?

[lorelei9]

Anyone else feel put off pineapple rings now?

[Whataboutnodetox]

Axe wounds?

[crabbiearses]

soak it off

[YoureAllABunchOfBastards]

I cannot explain to DS1 and 2 why I am laughing so much...

[blindsider]

Amazed that sex Lube and a fish slice didn't work - that's always my go to combination for kitchen emergencies!

Made I larf out loud....

[weepat]

Through tears of laughter.
Is the pot unstuck?

[HeartsTrumpDiamonds]

I have been wanting to come back and check this thread all day.

[knobblyknee]

Yay! Congrats.

Anyway, pineapple flavour. Really?!?

[Timeforanamechangy]

Well done for finally getting it off

As a side note, I've been told by a friend that the 'tingly' sex lube (y'know, the one that makes you feels all minty fresh) works very well as a soothing burn gel not that I work in kitchens and have used it on my poor burnt hands in the past oh no

[moreshitandnofuckingredemption]

Just read that as "soothing bum gel". Glad I double-checked!

[Welliwooster]

Absolutely brilliant - loads of comments and I actually read every one lmao!!! I needed a "absolutely hilarious" button!

My hubby wouldn't think sex lube & a fish slice is a strange combination as he seems to have a "thing" for kitchen utensils - especially wooden spoons.... I think he'd happily keep a fish slice in that "special drawer" next to the lube 😜

(A fish slice is that flippy spatular thing you use in a frying pan to flip the bacon/eggs/sausages etc 🍳)

Welli, your post reminds me of this

Mrsleighdelamare they would be useful if you got something stuck up the hoovery.

[MrsLadyJaneM]

Hoover!!

[Welliwooster]

lorelei9, that's brilliant!! Just LOL at that! I'm gonna have to show that clip to my hubby

[lorelei9]

Welli, I didn't find it that funny until she said "i don't think you should use a spatula for that" but the video was very popular with friends who had read the book!

[lorelei9]

LadyJane, I thought "hoovery" was a euphemism!!

[PrincessMouse]

Came back just to read this thread again. It's brilliant

[BoffinMum]

Whataboutnodetox, well to be fair I got a C in O Level Chemistry so my ignorance has been revealed. Now wondering what the process is that gets the burnt jam off the bottom of the stock pot and brings socks back to a shade of white instead of 50 Shades of Grey.

That Ellen De Generes sketch is hilarious, by the way, whoever posted that. "Don't eat the pancakes, everyone!" Or in this case the fish
