Ok but why did they then proceed to turn the oven on without anything in there?

They couldn't find them for three days, they went to preheat the oven because apparently they don't use it much. They found melty glasses, isn't too hard to imagine. What I don't understand more is why they were placed in there. What situation would lead to someone putting their glasses in the oven.

I assume they’re reading glasses, because at least when I wore glasses before LASIK I would know immediately if I wasn’t wearing my glasses. A lot of people hang their reading glasses on their shirt collar or on top of their head, I could see them falling off while pulling something out of the oven without realizing.

Get a carbon monoxide monitor for your house.

When my face gets sweaty, my glasses will sometimes slip off without me feeling it which usually means I don't catch them before they hit the floor. I could see someone pulling something out of the oven in a rush and not noticing that their glasses came off. Particularly if there was a bunch of steam or smoke and they closed their eyes.

ROFL this has nothing to do with ADHD.

I may have some news for you

[–] Coreidan 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

You mean irrelevant news?

Being forgetful or diverging your attention quickly due to ADHD doesn’t explain why their glasses ended up in the oven.

I get it. If you put the glasses in there and THEN forgot, I’ll agree that it might be ADHD.

But none of that explains why the glasses were ever there to begin with. There is no explanation beyond just simple stupidity.

I cannot agree with you.

Just put them in a bag of rice, they'll be good as new.

That will teach you to check the oven before turning it on.
