It's too dangerous. There's no choice. Ban Gasoline!

That's what I found funny. We're all familiar with gasoline. Fire too. We know what happens when those two mix.

I have so many questions about this. Why was an open glass container of gasoline inside...?

Odds are, that was the story they told the cops because something else happened. Nobody is going to drink gasoline then go have a cigarette.

Of course, nobody is going to want to ban gasoline and fire because some ..... blew himself up. Lithium and nicotine...that's another story.

Now do you see what I did there? ;)
