Dropped my phone in melted goat fat, will it fail to work?

[Mumbles274]

probably feeling a little sheepish about starting this thread now?

How is it dessiato - working ok? It's gonna fucking honk for a while though

It seems to be working fine at the moment, and it doesn't smell too bad.

Look, I'm not kidding around. (Sorry, even I couldn't resist that one.) I'm really interested in finding out if I'm going to need a new phone sooner, rather than later. I'll clean it with some alcohol, and, hopefully, this will remove any residual fat.

butt it's funnier to make puns?

I live in Spain, tapas is the norm for me in the evening. At least I didn't drop it in my beer. And I'd eaten most of the goat.

you ate a whole goat?

Last time I burned my penis was with a cigarette, and the time before that was with the hairdryer. So it might have been me.

Last time...



you make a habit of it?

 

[Cheesypoof]

have heard of goose fat, but goat fat, never! Hope you sort our your phone mate

There's no point in bleating about these things, but I hope your phone is ok. If it was only in the hot fat for a few seconds it might be ok as the oil may not have had time to get into the innards of it. Was it deep fat or just shallow like in a frying pan?

I'm also not sure whether the greater viscosity of oil, compared to water, might be to your advantage. Water will quickly enter voids but I wonder whether oil would take longer due to the higher viscosity. We need someone who is more knowledgeable about the behaviour of fluids at high temperatures to answer that.

Hope your phone doesn't smell like a goat in heat though.

could be worse, he could have left his phone unattended in the hotel room while he went for tapas. And we all know how that one plays out

 

[King Biscuit Time]

Dropping your phone in goat fat will render it useless.

gentrification sooner or later it will be 'I've dropped my monocle in my caviar' from someone. Or 'The doorway of my favourite pub is so low In have to remove my tophat before entering'

 

[DotCommunist]

Corrected for you.

I see 'them' things as a unified body of evil waiting to fuck me up, hence them is appropriate

either that or I was talking like as what I speak. Guv.

Nanny state problems, shurely.

maybe Dessiato should build a wee little pyre and offer it up as a burnt sacrifice to the gods of fortune, cos he's clearly got a balance sheet to clear with those capricious bastards

The goat fat was about 1,5cm deep. It is beginning to smell a bit this morning.

Not a habit of it, I've only done it two or three times, and always by accident.

A gentleman would know to remove his topper before entering his watering hole.

Prepare to be bummed by a randy goat. Or possibly eaten by a predator of goats... like this chap -

Iron it between two sheets of newspaper.

Chupacabra is coming for you.

 

[geminisnake]

You didn't burn your penis trying to retrieve the phone?

Or am confusing you with another urb?

You are correct as dess has pointed out but you might also be thinking of Sas, who burnt himself with bombers from his spliff

 

[emanymton]

Iron it between two sheets of newspaper.

While in bed and using your leg as an ironing board.

 

[dessiato]

I am eating anchovy and tomato tapa so as not to repeat last night's problem

 

[dessiato]

I've just been having a look at my old threads and was reminded of this. My phone is working fine, although it has a distinctive odour.
