Just a reminder to everyone.

That laptops should never be placed on your laps.


DON'T

I know. It's pretty contradicting. But trust me on this one. Or, you know, this study that recently came up on one of the websites that I frequently visit, if you don't believe me.

Well apparently, it is pretty extremely dangerous to place your laptops on your laps for long amounts of time. Say around 30 minutes or so. They call it the Toasted Skin  Syndrome. Or erythema ab igne. And it looks like the way you imagined it to be.

I'm sure. Ayaw mong makita yan up close.

A friend of mine had that once. KADIRI. I tell you. Isipin mo a slice of bread or tasty, except this time it's your skin. Or legs. Put some mustard on it, some traces of ketchup. bits of deep-fried bacon and put it in an oven. Then add something smelly. Like say blood and puss. Then you'll get a pretty clear picture, and smell of the said condition. Or you can, you know, place your laptop and wait for an hour or two. It really is a simple process.


Voila! Pwede na dilaan in an instant!
Or you can continue using your laptops without any means of protection in hopes of having superpowered and highly radiated children.

Sana maging Spiderman.
Well, bahala kayo, and oh, apparently, the condition can lead to skin cancer, there's that certain complication.

So take care everyone. Or not. It's all up to you.


But I want a flying son!
