  • Those are some interesting and creative suggestions. Now, I’m no weapons engineer, but I believe there’s a term for aerosolized gasoline when deployed to put out a fire, and that term is “thermobaric bomb”.

    Never mind that though, it’ll totally work: Not only is a building that no longer exists not a building on fire, but it’s guaranteed to never catch fire again. Problem permanently solved. If you’re in the market for a job, I’ve been told that Hellfire (“We may not put you out, but we’ll definitely put you down”) Inc. is hiring.



  • It’s like reading an article about a petrol refining company, who, having prior experience with gasoline as a useful and profitable substance, decides to seek venture capital for the development of a petrol-based fire-extinguisher. They obtain the funding - presumably because some people with money just wants to see the world burn and / or because being rich and having brains is not necessarily strongly correlated - but after having developed the product, tests conclusively prove the project’s early detractors right: The result is surprisingly always more fire, not less. And they “don’t know how to fix it, while still adhering to the vision of a petrol-based fire-extinguisher”.
