What are the chances that I, a not particularly tech savvy person, go to download mint and end up bricking my computer?
Honestly, my computer is an absolute bottom of the barrel $200 Dell laptop right now, so it wouldn't be that big of a deal, but I'd hate to fuck it up, get a better computer, and fuck that up too.
If you can follow the instructions on the install site, you should be fine (especially if you don't try to dual boot): https://linuxmint-installation-guide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/burn.html
