Asbestos glove with gasoline? HAH! Wuss! A REAL woman doesn’t NEED gloves!

:::pours gasoline onto hand, strikes a match:::

faWOOMPH!

OW! Not good! Gasoline is NOT 151! Owowowowowow! Hothothothot!

:::sticks hand in to chocolate ice cream:::

Oh, that stings. Anyone got any Bactine?

Congrats! As a newbie to the forum, I probably don’t even have the necessary posts to give you props; however, what the hell, I’ll do it anyway.

BTW: Not to try to highjack anything, but, if it’s quick and not a source of controversy, who has the most posts anyway?

Dammit, **struuter** , now I’m gonna have that song stuck in my head for the rest of the night.

Just inject it all in my veins and I know _I’ll_ be happy.

Congrats, **Persephone**. BTW, you do so have a life. Just think - you’ve done tons of things people will _never_ do in a lifetime. A barfight, a soap opera (if meomory serves), etc. Just think of all the evil things/threads that will be added to your post count later on. 😃 The mind boggoledoth.

Prosser: Thanks! I like newbies. They’re particularly good on toasted wheat bread, with a nice dijon mustard. But I think some of the other regs have probably got some much more creative recipes. 😉  
Sakura: Hey! Nice to see you’ve been resurrected again! I was beginning to miss you! 😃
