Conventional Wisdom

(Historical Notes: Oh man, THIS was embarrassing.  It’s either miraculous or concerning that I didn’t set off any fire alarms during this little brain fart, because it ABSOLUTELY stank up the whole room and was VERY suspiciously smoldering as I shoved it into the sink.  Oh, and just for the record, I did NOT attempt to eat the crispy remains.  I have to specify this, because this was NOT the first time I accidentally set a bowl of ramen on fire at a con, and that previous time I totally ate it anyway.)
