What does "control" mean for Germany?

Well, I suppose you never heard of Monty Python either? And I'm guessing you're not gonna look that up either...
 
I don't know Douglas Adams either. But I do know about 42 :) And I'm a fan of Pratchett as well. And Monty Python. And spam. It is a bit off topic, isn't it? The thread with spam, spam, Pratchett, spam and spam...

...so back on topic: don't let Englishmen to translate The Funniest Joke in the World to German. Peanut. With spam of course.
 
To derail this thread further, I only recently realized that the Python programming language is named after Monty Python... :eek2: This explains the references in the otherwise dry and formal documentation!
 
No, no... You're missing the point: The man will be warm for the rest of his life - its just that his life won't even outlast the flames... Think about it.

Common, the chance of surviving being set of fire is greater than dying from it. If I would be set on fire (even with gasoline) I would roll over the floor, find a shower or a body of water to jump into.

If you want to presume he won't outlive the fire, you should mention the man being tied up or something.

I know, I'm a dork... :p
 
I'd actually like to see you survive pouring gasoline on yourself and setting yourself on fire... Please prove me wrong.

But I guess the joke isn't funny anymore, since I had to explain it to you.

I'll do it on one condition:

Lena stands next to me with a wet towel to put it out right after the fire starts.

Preferably she will push me to the ground and then smother me with the towel... and then I fake to be unconsious and as an attempt to save my life she gives me mouth to mouth...

Later Lena asks a doctor: "Is it normal for someone unconsious to stick his tongue in your mouth during resuscitation?" :p

If you pour gasoline on yourself, jumping in the water won't help. It's natural fires that can be put out with water, not chemical fires.
 
Burn, baby, burn!

Even gasoline fires need oxygen and there isn't much in water. (In it's pure form, that is)

Pour a couple of liters water in your cars gastank then try to start the engine...
 
*looks at the ensuing discussion*

That's what happens when you open up a new thread for small questions, kids ;)
 
To be honest, it was your signature that reminded me of that quote. Well, and that.
 
Now with Rhye "gone" the inmates are running the asylum! :crazyeye:
