Miracle of Flaming Hand

I saw my left hand burning tonight. It was engulfed in blue and yellowish flames of naphtha. I would have watched and enjoyed the sight much more if my right hand hadn’t been aflame before with my Zippo in it and I hadn’t thrown it into a glass of water!
You see kids, there is actually no way of putting out a Zippo if it’s out of the case, say for refueling. I would really have liked to stop and take a picture for demonstration purposes, but saving a drowning Zippo is much more important.

Trust Story

“You should never trust me,” said the second person.
“So I should sometimes trust you?” answered back the first person, after a while.
“Very good!” exclaimed the second person. “You are a quick study…”
The first person cut in. “But why should I trust you more than I trust anyone else then?”
“You don’t have to.” came back the prepared answer. “You should never trust me.”

Most Important Factor

I hate to be just parroting XKCD, but I’m also unbelievably lazy and unimaginative so here it goes:

Always factor in the cost of the annihilation of mankind!

Just make sure you are having it minimize the cost!

Heed this warning Amiross!

Sync Floyd

Something neat just happened. I am on a train now, listening to “The Wall”, and the train broadcast system just came to life and started playing a bad performance of an instrumental version of the same track! On some montage of some sort.
Granted, the two tracks weren’t in sync, but still…

C++ “Glasses”!

The Slashdotters put together a list of questions for Bjarne Sroustrup to answer a while back. The Q&A is interesting on its own, but this comment by an anonymous coward (as they are called on /.) is the funniest piece of writing I’ve read in a long time!
Read the Q&A and the rest of the comments too, if you have time.
