Anatomical Skeleton Oven Mitt

Real men don’t use oven mitts when touching the hot metal of a heated oven. Hell, real men can’t even feel their hands because of the thick calluses that cover their fingers.

Clue isn’t only a classic board game, but the movie based on the game is awesome as well. If you haven’t seen it I highly recommend it. Tim Curry is vastly underrated.
