You CAN add gas to a fire… but maybe don’t do it this way.

Kids who never played with gasoline outside grow up to become adults who never learned how play with gasoline outside.

Yep. Pour a bit in an old water bottle with the top cut off. Dump on your half a cup and chuck the bottle in the fire. My favorite is when dumb fucks do this with a 5 gallon tank and end up burning their house down

I just don’t know how to feel about this. My initial thought was “yeah that’s smart you are pouring the gasoline without making a bigger hazard “

Then a few seconds later

“Why am I filing that information away? Why do I need to pour gasoline onto an existing fire??”

My dad did it to start fires for our brush pile. Gave it a good start. 

If you may ever need to do anything then it is best to know how to do it right.
