Burnt Hair: It's Actually Funnier than It Looks

So, if you've seen this, you know what I'm talking about.

If you haven't, enjoy:

Now, this is the part where I say something snarky about this, but I'm actually not going to.

But I've actually been in her boat before.

A friend - who shall remain nameless for the sweet sake of dignity - was drying my hair once with a  hair dryer and a round brush.

She was doing everything right as far as I can tell.

Suddenly, there was this AWFUL stench, and my first thought was "Oh no, my hair's broken her hair dryer".
