Anyone ever have too many adult beverages

So I left my plate setter out in the rain after a couple too many adult beverages. How long before I can use it again? I assume I need to let it dry completely

    You can use it right away.  If it's wet, it will just take a little longer to come to temp.

    And to answer your other question, no, never.

    Absolutely not. Carry on. Might ooze out some moisture but shouldn’t be a big deal. 

    I routinely test my limits. If that’s wrong I don’t want to be right.

    Worst I ever did Eggcentrically was after the cook I forgot to shut down the Egg. Luckily, it was a low and slow. I remembered right after I went to bed. Managed to exit the spinning room, go out, and shut it down.

    Episodes not dealing with the Egg? Too numerous to go into.

    If leaving your plate setter out is the worst you have done...then you need more adult beverages.

    Sometimes I will have a coffee after 2pm.  Then I am up all night and miserable the next day.

    As a Navy Chief I am required to abide by this creed:

    A Chief Petty Officer shall not drink, BUT

    if a Chief Petty Officer should drink,

    he shall not get drunk. BUT

    If he should get drunk,

    he should not stagger. BUT

    If he should stagger,

    he should not fall down. BUT

    If he should fall down,

    he should fall on his left side. WHY?

    To hide his rating badge so people will think he is an officer.
