This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

My best pan was the cast iron frying pan from the 1920s that I inherited from my grandmother. I say "was" because eventually my brother used it to drain the oil from his motorcycle. I still haven't totally forgiven him for that.
Nothing you couldn't recover from unless he managed to crack it. I'd wipe it down, and hit it with brake parts cleaner. If I was still nervous about contamination, I'd put it in an oven with the self cleaning function and run it. That should burn it back down to bare metal. Then, s good scrub with dish soap to remove any residue and a good seasoning, and you're back in business. I don't know if I'd personally skip the heat clean step or not, but I'd definitely put it back in usage.
