Hot enough to burn a hole in a cauldron Why They're Nonsensical: ...Or anything else for that matter if it's so scolding. Why specifically a cauldron? Ah, for rhyming reasons.

"Catching an Intruder"
Recently, rapper LL Cool J was surprised by noises in his kitchen around 1am in the morning only to discover an unknown man in his home who then rushed him. LL Cool J delivered a broken nose and jaw to the man who was a transient that had just walked into his home (probably scavenging for food) and suffered the consequences. The unidentified intruder is being treated in the hospital for his injuries. It is not clear if LL Cool J pressed charges or not (TMZ)...
