I've sacrificed my nails to the gods of clean stoves. I've no idea when that thing was last cleaned. I know now that I would have no problem licking it. But when I started, I actually thought that parts of it were orange, only to discover that they were metallic silver. Verra verra nasty.
And, given that I was using steel wool and the most potent degreasing agents I could lay hands on, I've got a chemical headache and hands that feel like they were made out of some sort starched burlap.
And I have some incredibly soft hands usually. Ask anyone who's penis I've touched.
Go on... ask.

Apparently it made me a lil kookie too.
But that's a chicken/egg sort of thing.
