I just figured out the people in the song "pepper" aren't "in love with Di(ana) and they were drinking from a fountain", but are in fact "in love with dying. They were drinking from a fountain" . There's a lot of names in that song, so it's logical, at least. I kinda like it better my way.

They can if you heat them and don't open them first. I have scars from a stew explosion thanks to my drunk husband and was covered in burns on my face, neck, and arms that were visible for weeks.

If you heat up a can in boiling water there's no way it's gonna burst, unless maybe you waaaay overdo it and get the contents inside the can boiling hard enough, but I still doubt it. Now, if "boiling a can" means putting the drat thing right on the burner (without opening it) , then yeah...

The traditional baked bean bomb is a can in the fire and will leave bean holes in your tent if it's too close when it goes off. Adding a can to water, even if it still did go bang, it's daft as it would suppress the explosion.

If the can's in contact with the base of the pan and the burner's on high, you can get direct heating between the metals at higher than boiling point and create a steam pressure bomb.

It's great. There's a Danish equivalent, "dumt og farligt" (stupid and dangerous), that has some clips on youtube and can probably also be found illicitly. For reference, the longer-haired dude is a pro stunt guy and the shorter-haired dude is a comedian.

The metal strip over the flint wheel on disposable Bic lighters is supposed to be a child-proof safety. I'd always assumed it was basically packaging and meant to prevent the lighter from striking while being knocked around in shipping or something, and pulled it off as soon as I got the lighter. It turns out that it's completely possible to leave it on and still use the lighter.

You seriously thought you were meant to remove it? It can't even be done without some kind of tool or at least very good (and not close-cropped) fingernails.

I remove them anyway because I'm not a child. Well I mean I am but not one who's gonna burn themselves or the house down.

They added that and removed the thumbwheel that controlled the size of the flame. :corsair:

Yeah. They used to not come with that on there, so when they started adding it I just thought "oh, this comes off" and never gave it much more thought.

In their defense they really perfected the self-adjusting regulator though. The flame remains pretty much the same height until it's drat near completely empty.
