But did they have shrimp?

This is not something you learn. It is an instinct that you inherit.

If these people did not have the instinctual sense to not BBQ inside, we may be looking at a dangerous mutation that could be hidden in recessively in the genetic makeup of Australians.

We must find people with this mutation and eradicate them before they cause damage to more than just themselves.

Approves

I think I know who was cooking..

that's a special kind of stupid right there....

Damn you Mr. Potatoass!

Well, I'm glad I didn't have to do it.

They don't have these in Australia?

HOMER FACEPALM

/Even Homer Simpson knows this is stupid

I rem reading a story about an Antarctic explorer who nearly did himself in when his chimney iced up. CO poisoning is nasty: it grabs your red blood cells and won't let go, so even when you get out of the CO atmosphere, you're still suffocating for a long while after.

Not amused

/hot like a BBQ grill

Tasmania, Australia's Florida

LOL this reminds me of the time I used gasoline to start my charcoal grill. My son still talks about it, the wife still face palms LOL.

/Burgers are done

Jacques Lestrap: Tasmania, Australia's Florida

Haha. I was going to say Alabama.

This kind of retarded behavior occurs more often than you might think, especially when it's cold and the power and/or gas go out. firing one up to keep warm somehow seems slightly less retarded than trying to barbecue food indoors, however.

Damn. When the ambulance arrived they should've just locked the family in the room and let Darwin take them. Now those idiot genes are going to escape and spread.

Shatner's Bassoon: Damn. When the ambulance arrived they should've just locked the family in the room and let Darwin take them. Now those idiot genes are going to escape and spread.

Don't panic too much, Tasmania's an island where we let all the 'tards and inbreds roam free. They can BBQ inside safe in the knowledge they won't be persecuted there.

/Map of Tassie or GTFO?

Not impressed

This was already covered in a very special episode of Trailer Park Boys

How is Babby Q formed?

When signing the lease for a new house a couple of weeks ago, the landlord warned me not to barbecue inside. I thought that was hilarious, because I assumed this was common sense. Apparently not.

We had a group of folks here in Hyattsville, MD go the distance by putting an electric generator in the basement of their house one evening.

Three dead by daybreak.



//Not funny

mbillips: Slightly OT, but you know what makes totally kickass lighter fluid for charcoal? Vegetable oil. It costs less, works better and you never get that kerosene taste. Just douse a couple wads of newspaper, stuff them up under your charcoal starter, light and walk away. 15-20 minutes later, you've got perfect coals.

Yup. Snooty barbequistas can use extra-virgin olive oil.

/Paper towels work well too, if you don't want ink on your fingers

It was a cheeseburger party gone out of hand

Just another reason I love FARK. I always come away from a thread with something new. Or interesting. Or disturbing.

Anyway, it's all good.

i heard a guy down my street tell the firemen when this happened to him "the warning sticker fell off the grill so i thought it was ok now [to grill inside]". the human mind is a amazing thing.

Sadly, this didn't happen in Darwin.

Happens all over the world.

Also, at least in Florida, we have commercials telling us it's really bad to deep fat fry the turkey because the house might burn down.

freaking europeans

Another sims reference?

Back in the big Seattle windstorm many areas were without power for a week or more. The number of news stories about people running BBQs and generators indoors and ending up sick or dead was astounding. Too many people are ignorant farking morans.

they call shrimp 'prawns' here. no one says shrimp.
