that someone broke into our apartment and burned a charred small black circle onto the top of our coffee table.
but really it happened because I stuck a tea tag (WHICH I TOLD HIM ABOUT) into the votive candle holder that was burning on top of the coffee table.
Apparently pretty large flames do get hot enough to go through thin glass and burn wood.
I will get on crafting a mini log roller out of paperclips and jewelry wire ASAP.
oMG, I am so glad someone pointed out it wasn't tea bag. I've been pondering this and wondering how a tea bag could char the table!!!
ugh!!!!
what the hell. i read TAG. tag, as in the thingy that dangles at the end of the string. Sheesh.
I also read bag at first and thought it must have been an unused bag.
I read TAG. I remember because I usually use loose tea so I had to think of what a tea tag was for a second.
What is a tea tag (if not the thing at the other end of the string from a tea bag)? I might be the only one who's still confused. ???

\\no i dont know what it is either
It's the paper at the end of the string.
oh, ok, thats what i thought. how would it burn for a lifetime? (ive only skimmed over this thread lol)
You people are crazy.

Yeah, you know, the little thing that falls into your cup the moment you pour water on the bag, so you have to burn your fingers to fish it out.

When I used tea bags I tie the string around the handle and tuck the paper under.
oh, you and your "clever" method of not burning your fingers.
whatever.

I read bag as well and I thought you were a weird person who drops tea bags in candles too AC I was like hmmm ok well... that's weird. But accepted it as part of your unique charm :P
hey, maybe she wants to re-dry her tea so she can reuse it.
You wasteful people, tossing your used tea bags! Psh!
I think "tossing tea bags" should be a euphemism.
AC was tea bagging a candle.
