Poll of the Day > Hey uh don't play with lighter fluid

(+) Yeah! (+)

I was trying to set some wet logs on fire so I just went ham with the lighter fluid. I light it and there's a fireball that goes up 3 inches away from engulfing my head 6 feet up in the air. It only missed me because the wind was blowing. Could have burned my whole face badly.

Could be in pain in the hospital sad about the way my face was burnt but instead I'm sitting here watching YouTube.

I gave up setting it on fire after that, btw.

Lighters for starting fires are long for a reason, have you not started one before? I kinda sounds like you were doing it wrong.

Well, I used to be a boy scout, but I was being incredibly lazy. I know better than most how to start a campfire. I didn't even use small sticks, just thick logs that were cut straight off a tree. I was always annoyed with the "overcautious" safety guidelines though and it might show.

Two of these sentences contradict each other.
