I use microwave as a kettle

You don't just put a mug on the stove like a normal person?

Sometimes. When I don't wear my contacts

My mate used daily contacts for weeks until one ripped in half when he tried to take it out and got stuck in his eye and he couldn’t see so he asked me to help take it out but I couldn’t.

Luckily, my partner could.

Be careful!

Oh yah it only happened once to him in like a decade.

…it didn’t stop him from doing that, and it never happened again! I was just scary.
