Except in the case of wild fires. Then the fire fighters trainers bust out their own, well-trained fires to fight and capture the wild fire.

It is sad that I know that in spite of the joke... this actually does happen.

For good reason too. Why would understanding how people effectively stop fire make you sad?

[scriver]

That's not sad and it's not in spite of the joke. That is the joke.

And yes, the thing that people fighting fire sometimes start their own fires to deprive the big fire of fuel is the reason the phrase "fight fire with fire" exists, Neonivek. That's what it means.

It doesn't work very well in cities, though.

[Eric Blank]

Hence fighting wildfires with fire.

Also, wasp stings produce a lot of swelling for me. Painful indeed, but the swelling is why I got stuck on a couch. I took too long trying to get the thing off my foot; it was legitimately stuck to me.

That's true. "Fight fire with bulldozers", eh?

[Eric Blank]

Dynamite. There's no time for bulldozers, just blow them up.

(No, don't. This has been tried before. It didn't help.)

Hey, the Soviets used TNT to put out oil fires...

This is the level of standards allowed at the UN.

Just look at it! Horrifying WTF!

The academic in me is writhing in pain in a fetal position right now.

[Loud Whispers]

Prepare your rectums for united national enrichment

[Eric Blank]

...is that anything like uranium enrichment?

I don't think we want a centrifuge full of assholes.

[Graknorke]

Dynamite. There's no time for bulldozers, just blow them up.

No time for dynamite, if we want it to be fast enough we need to go nuclear.

This is the level of standards allowed at the UN.

Eh, the UN has been bouncing on counter-intellectual progressive (gender-neutral) cock for a while now. See: UN Women.

[Loud Whispers]

The United Nations is a strong independent supranational entity that don't need no nation
