    Default Have you ever set something on fire?

    Well? Have you ever set something on fire? Are you a secret (or not-so-secret) pyromaniac?

    All the legal stuff's a given.. logs, Marlboros, body parts, food...

    My school chem tutor was insane in an if-he-ran-you-followed way (haven't we had this conversation recently?), and by 16 he'd taught me to love the idea that entropy is unidirectional. You pack a TV with magnesium and permanganate and it becomes very difficult to put back together.

    Everybody likes fire - it's buried deep in our psyche to be interested in it - so I'm not bothered by people who say they're pyromaniacs. I'm bothered by the ones that say they're not.

    Awesome! You just made setting things on fire a matter of philosophy and the determination of man.

    I'll bet $50 you won't get one person who says "No...don't think I've ever set anything on fire"

    You don't necessarily have to be a pyro, but come on. Come on.

    depends - who's pressing charges?

    I've set my share of, well everything, on fire. I'm an honest-to-goodness pyro. I get more than the average thrill from watching things go up in flames.

    (so i'm crazy, so sue me)

    I set this pinata stick covered in tissue paper on fire, it was in my friends room too. It was so funny, it lit, i threw it on the floor yelling "FIRE FIRE FIRE" and everyone panicked.

    Then there was that time we outlined a huge anarchy sign on my friends basketball court in gasoline, then lit it on fire... good times.

    Of course Fire is fun. Campfires are the funnest!

    Nothing quite like throwing styrofoam into a big bowl of gasoline, then spreading the sticky napalm like substance out into shapes..making big flaming letters that burn and burn.. *o*

    Anyone remember who said:

    Build a man a fire; keep him warm for a day.
    Set a man on fire; keep him warm for the rest of his life.

    when i was 7 we had this halloween cauldren full of oil that i would set on fire on a daily basis. i always did it in secret yet the black smoke always gave it away.

    when i was 13 we had a bon fire at my mother's friends ranch where they would take baggies full of gas and toss it in for explosions.

    4th july 2000-2001 i set myself on fire. i stopped doing that as i started running out of pants. and its stupid

    The garage was a virtual cornucopia of flamable liquids. I used to burn everything. WD40 was always a good one, using the little straw it came with to write your name set it alight. Gas fires are the best though, such a ruckus liquid. Burning pentacles into the concreate of parking lots and making obstacle courses for fire in the dirt. I've pretty much given it up now that fireworks are legal here.

    HAHA heres your sign... that is good shit right there. blue collar comedy tour all the way...

    but yeah burning house not fuckin cool. my brother a couple times was playing with my moms lit candles in the living room... once set a peice of paper on fire, freaked out and didnt know what to do with it, and ran down the hallway to hide it somewhere i guess, but dropped it at the end of the hall where my mom noticed and put it out... nice melty spot on the carpet but no burning house.

    I used to have this pinata and it had this weird stuff on it. yeah I always wondered what it would burn like
    It burned quickly . . . . scared the piss out of me.


    But yeah Fire really scares me.
    I got burned really bad when I was a kid
    Me and my brother enjoyed burning plastic and playing with it . . .
    and the plastic got on me. Wasnt too pretty.

    But I still love fire.
    Just scary

    i have been set on fire at various s&m clubs, cheapo hair-mousse works great, but you gotta let an expert do it or there will be burns

    sounds like lint from a dryer. hahaha I was fuckin' around, and almost caught the house on fire. I was a quick thinker and grabbed the hose from outside. haha I had like 3 fans on blowing the smell out, hoping I wouldn't get caught...didn't work.

    My husband and I put out a fire someone started by throwing out a cig butt, carelessly onto a pile of very dry mulch...
    Picture march of '07 in Ft Myers Florida in the dry season that was having a record dry yr.
    The flames would have conquered several super lavish homes and a patch of woods.
    We were riding by on our bikes, when I stopped to use the phone.
    I'm glad we were at the right place at the right time.

    Well, in 5th grade a friend who smoked lit a part of my hair on fire without me knowing, I was walking in front of her, and she managed to rip that small chunk out before it got to my root, went up fast though and smelt horrible. Needless to say, I was pissed.

    I guess in my younger days out of bordem I lit stuff on fire. Can't recall anything too exciting though.

    When I was around 11 I lit a bible on fire in a weird pseudo-pagan ritual.

    I scattered what didn't burn in the wind.

    I'm metal as fuck.
