Step up and play the "Why can't I see straight?" game!

The rules are simple. The first person to guess the reason why my eyesight is currently all blurry wins 10 points. Then I will ask another random question. The first person to get that question right will get 10 points. This will continue until this thread is either locked or it dies like all my threads do.

So let's begin.

Why can't I see straight?

You were barfing into a toilet bowl and they fell in.

the steak quesadillas were burning and there was smoke so you moved the pan back off the heat and went to rub your eyes (cause of the smoke) and your glasses fell off?
Sdaeriji

No to all three. I'll give you a hint. It had to do with the fact that I was frying.

Legless Pirates

Someone wanted to kick your ass, but he/she had his/her foot turned up and kicked you in the nuts too, so you doubled over and the glasses fell in (and you scorched your eyebrows too)

The oil was messing up your glasses, making you try to wipe them, but you accidently dislodged it. And a mass of melted plastic and glass is the result.

You couldn't see squat because of the smoke/water and the glasses fogged up. You wanted to clean them, but knocked them off?

Yes, but how did they not end up in the pan?
Legless Pirates
19-04-2005, 11:52

You were holding the pan and jerked it off, causing the steak thingies to fall on the ground, so you have no food AND no glasses
Non Aligned States
19-04-2005, 11:52
Hmmm, you poured water into the frying oil by accident, resulting in plenty of flying oil whereupon you jerked back, franticaly waving your hands about and knocking your glasses down as well, which were oil spattered, and later oil sauteed.
FairyTInkArisen
19-04-2005, 11:52
Yes, but how did they not end up in the pan?
cause when it happened you had hold of the pan handle and you instinctively pushed the pan off the heat when you got splattered?
