At least you stopped using your tongue to test it! ;-)
No, you've got it all wrong - you use your tongue to test if the
soldering iron is COLD.
I was in someone else's shop one day and saw something falling off
the edge of the bench in my peripheral vision, and caught a hot
soldering iron. Luckily I had my tool box with me so I grabbed some
pure silicone grease and smeared it over the burns. I lost a layer of
dead skin a few days later, but it didn't dry out enough to crack and
bleed, which would have taken a lot longer to heal.
