No. Nope, No. Not on your life. If I saw that in one of my pots, I would light the contents on fire, drown it in water, and then - and this is key - THROW IT OUT AND GO BUY A NEW POT!!!
It took me a long time to fully internalize that if someone asks "How are you doing?" they don't really care. I never liked saying "fine" when I wasn't fine. I don't like lying, even "white lies". The best I can do in most cases is just not to say anything. I am in a good place the last couple years, so I can answer "good" honestly. But if that is not the case, I now have this response thanks to this thread.
