Doggedly searching for the crux of the biscuit.
Don't shoot fireworks out of your butt.
A man suffered internal burns when he tried to launch a rocket from his bottom on Bonfire Night. Paramedics found the 22-year-old bleeding, with a Black Cat Thunderbolt Rocket lodged inside him, when they attended the scene in Sunderland. He suffered a scorched colon and is now recovering in hospital, where his condition is described as stable.
However, if you absolutely must—and I know sometimes these situations do arise—at least stick to sparklers.
I'm embarrassed for myself and this country, but I've seen several videos of people doing this. It usually doesn't have a good end.

"stick to sparklers" s/b "aim the rocket away from your ass".

Posted by: M/tch M/lls at November 9, 2006 06:55 PMI'm surprised the paramedics didn't try to pass him off to the fire department, like with that awl dude.
And man, that Chimt Illms, what a wacko.
