Does that burning-rag-in-the-gas-tank move really work?

I've noticed a staggering lack of active threads in the Autos forum. I aim to rectify that by starting this one, and hoping that others will follow suit so that we might save this forum from extinction.

So here it is. You know how in the movies sometimes a guy will put a lit rag into a gas tank as a makeshift fuse, and then after the guy walks away the lit rag ignites the gas and the car immediately explodes into a big ball of fire?

Is that really what would happen? Would it explode like that or would it just burn? And how long would it really take to do whatever it is going to do? Wouldn't the lit rag ignite the gas fumes immediately as soon as you got it near the open tank?

We should never take such matters as the burning rag so lightly.

Get it? Lightly?

Kicky, remember the time I tried to coerce you into kicking Reyn's ass?

He still hasn't talked to me since that day!


And Cicerone? Same thing. I make a harmless comment and they shun me.


Thank you, Kicky, for staying with me through the tough times.

I love you like a brother.

I think we should get together and beat up Wally and then have our way with Chai.

What do you think? Is it a go?

Those bastards. I will always stand by you, Gus! And I love you too. Like a big raggedy left pinky toenail.

I love a good fight. Can we throw a sack over him and then just beat him senseless, like we did with BPB at that party that one time just for fun?

I love the ideas you come up with when you're drinking.

Here's the plan: We beat up Wally, like I said, and then we go over to Setanta's house and kick his ass for the hell of it.

Then...back to Chai's and.... the Pleasure Dome awaits.


Let's do it!

Ooh, I been dying to beat the tar out of Setanta for years...I'm so IN!

And then we get to bang the **** out of Chai for a couple days, right?

You two puny drunks will need a lot of back-up . . . as it is right now, if the two of you show up alone, i'll leave it to the little dogs to run your pathetic asses off the street . . .

Not unless you've got the right gasoline-vapor-to-oxygen ratio.

You might try picking the car up and shaking it a bit before adding the
burning rag. Let us know how it works out.

Unlike you, geezer, these dogs have teeth in their gums . . . and they don't like smelly old drunks.

BRING IT ON, GUSTAV ! ! !

Yeah, Gus said he's going to lick your dogs' balls to distract them while I sneak into the house to kick your ass!

Another one of his great drunken ideas! I love that man's mind!
