That reminds me…
I had a cousin, when she was in high school, who called her mother at work:
“Mom, I’m scared.”
“What now?”
“I put the house on fire.”
“WHAT! What happened?” (turns out she lit the fire in the fireplace – how odd, right? – and there was a dangling covering on the mantle. That’s what burned.)
“I put it out, mom.”
“With what?”
“Bottled springwater.”
“WHAT! Why didn’t you use tapwater?”
Etc.
No real damage; I think they only needed to clean. No repaint necessary. It was just the way they went about it!
