People just confuse lcd and plasma.

No lcd screen gets screen burn.
LCD doesn't get burn-in in the traditional sense (uneven wearing of the light-emitting phosphors that create the image on CRT and Plasma screens), but they can suffer from "memory". Luckily with LCD screens they're usually completely recoverable by removing all power to the screen for a period of time (hours, sometimes days depending on how bad). You'd have to have your LCD screen on a static scene 24/7 for weeks or months at a time for this to be an issue, though. Think ATM displays, for example.

And of course LCDs can suffer from stuck or dead pixels that can't be repaired.
