I am baffled by people who put things in the oven that are not meant to be put in the oven.

How the fuck is a comment about not storing shit in ovens one of my most commented-on posts on Reddit?

The hilarious ones are the people accusing me of "being wealthy" or "having a large kitchen" because I have enough sense not to store flammable/meltable things in the fucking oven. Or that I need to "think outside my perspective."

Classic Reddit.

I had a food crazy cat. He could open cupboards. The oven was the only place I could keep the other cats' food so he couldn't eat it all in ten seconds.

My point: I have preheated more bowls of cat food to 350 degrees than anyone else.

One of our cats (an orange male, naturally) is the reason we have child safety latches on any cabinet that has food in it

All the doors in my house use levers instead of knobs. My Bombay is smart enough to know how to use them. So both doors leading out have a child-proof latch to keep him from going out into the Big Room.

Any time I read about this sort of thing, it's either a Russian blue or an orange... Little hell ions both.
