Darwin Award in Hand
I filled up my new old truck with gas yesterday morning and spent the time wiping cobwebs off the camper shell I put on the night before last. As I moved around the truck, I happened to notice a guy waiting for the bus about five feet away. He was smoking a cigarette, utterly oblivious to the fact that gas vapors are, um, explosive. Stupidly puffing away on the cigarette and basically risking an explosion because he was dumb enough to not even consider the danger he posed to himself and to me.
But, he didn't ignite a fiery blaze, he just got on his bus and went on his way. But damn, he's asking for a nice big fresh Darwin Award for behaving in a manner completely opposite of life preserving. Almost as stupid as the guy who used a lighter to check how much gas was in his lawnmower.
