One time I took a pot roast out of the oven and set it on the stove. I turned around to grab something and looked back and thought, no, that needs to be scooted up a bit, and proceeded to grab the handle of the pan that had been out of the oven for all of 4 seconds with my bare hand.
So I just always turn the oven mitt around after I set it on the stove and put it over the handle as a reminder that it’s hot
I have burned myself in so many random ways around the kitchen, but this is a nice visual reminder to everyone who might not know that this pan is probably pretty hot still

That hurt.
I’ve done that with a cast iron. I had to go to the hospital. Same exact thing.
Use mitt. Put on stove. Take off mitt.
3 seconds later,Need to adjust, forget mitt.
Grab handle fully. Palm, thumb, fingers. Aghhhhhh
Cry a little bit. Soak in water pitcher.
Drive to hospital with hand in pitcher.

Right but apparently the surface of my brain is as smooth as the cooking surface of my cast iron.
I probably should have gone to urgent care.
I did not. I put some creme on it, screamed, and held on to cold sodas all night
Well I got some painkillers, and luckily don’t have addiction issues so they really helped
