OP, you do realize that pouring salt over the flames would have extinguished just as much as a fire extinguisher minus fucking up your entire kitchen, right?
Next time, pour salt on the flames... whichever kind of fire it is.
Lesson: keep a box of salt in the kitchen at all times.

Baking soda works even better, but if the fire is really big then extinguisher is best.

one time a pot full of old oil I was using to make homemade french fries caught on fire because I was too stupid to watch it and wanted to smoke pot instead.
I went downstairs and there was 4ft tall flames, reaching the cabinets above.
I grabbed that shit with my hands (tried to use oven mitts to seperate my hands from the burning), got my ex to open the back door and I hauled ass into my backyard and threw that shit. 
I had second to third degree burns all over both of my hands.

Ow, best way to get oil fires out is with a metal cover.

Yeah salt works ok in a pinch but baking soda works much better because it releases carbon dioxide when it gets hot. Just don't use things like flour or sugar, very bad idea.
Some fire extinguishers use baking soda as the active component.

I can't imagine if someone emptied a big bag of flour on a big fire.

Edit: why the hell is that "kaboom"?

ding ding ding!
I was double boiling it in a mason jar to heat it up, specifically so it wouldn't start on fire ( ). When I picked up the jar the bottom fucking fell off for no reason 
INSTANT FLAME EVERYWHERE
also yeah i'll remember that salt idea. but if you saw this fire you would've done the same thing. I was literally going to burn the building down

Yeah I think it's related to the jar bottom being in contact with the heated bottom of the pot, so instead of being evenly heated by the water it gets way hotter at the very bottom, and the temperature differential causes strain in the glass or something like that. Real glassware and an electric hot plate might be a good idea if you want to keep doing this stuff.
