Not that bad, all things considered. See, if it had been red, I wouldn't have touched it. But I'd been flipping the selector back and forth between "broil" and "bake" in an attempt to get the top element going, and the bottom one had actually got fairly hot, although not enough to glow, from that.
It's only a little skinny first-degree burn, but it's on the touching surface of the middle finger of my right hand (and I'm right-handed), so it's awkward.
