Do y'all like... Loose the knobs for your stove often?

[–] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 92 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I lose one every time your mom comes over. She's a real knob gobbler

These knobs are usually painted plastic, so it's reasonable to think it got broken or something.

What are you having sex with it? /s

Plastic knobs are more your mom's thing.

Do you frequently damage things you have sex with? I think you're doing it wrong and are amazingly presumptuous with your tone considering you just made yourself the weird one.

Satire tag added

Edit: please don't downvote this person. I was wrong to not have included it.

My grandmother cleaned at least two of them to death.

If you twist them beyond their normal stopping point the thin plastic that holds the knob to the peg behind it can snap easily, or like if a curious kid slides it off the peg it they might lose it or it might not go back on very securely.

No, but I do occasionally lose them.
