I would like to know more about the physiological aspects of a human-bug zapper interface. All I know is if I hold one of those yellow tennis racket style bug zappers out a car window while driving around a lake at dusk, it looks like someone arc welding, especially if I hit a bee or grasshopper.
If you are interested in trying it for us, I will send you a Harbor Freight gift card so you can buy one and will make a donation in you name to our regional burn center.
Let’s narrow things down a bit. I already discovered the arc welding bug zapper phenomenon and am intellectually satisfied. What I’m really wanting to know is how you will react if you bypass safety measures on the bug zappers and test what happens to unprotected human flesh, as you did with the piezoelectric igniter you previously tested.
I used to live in a very old building in S.F. that had, what (I learned later) is called a “match light oven.”
How dumb is that invention, right?
So my first time using it, after discovering that it failed to get hot after several minutes of waiting, guess what I decided to do to test if it was working. Light a match!
I can still see that fireball moving towards my face as if in slow motion.
Luckily I only lost a few eyebrow hairs, but that was indeed a stupid thing to do.
you’ve correctly identified the enabler in this scenario and he did just *allow this to happen*. and i’m always talking abt Lot’s wife because she’s goddamn awesome get on the Lot’s wife train !

brb grabbing my electric tennis racket right now to try the car window trick (for science)

oh this is admirable if for nothing else than being wildly dangerous... and possibly an efficient way to do your eyebrows
Good ol cartoon shenanigans
While your scientific method was weak, I do appreciate all things fire. May have sold me on the $7.99 zapper.
For research sake - if you have pierced ears - you should attempt to shoot it through your ear. That’d be cool. (Also not liable)
how big do you think an ear hole is
Certainly not my problem. Let me know how it goes
you’re always talking about lots wife. also i blame adam for this he should know better than to have fun gadgets around you you can’t help yourself

🤔
correct
my editor slept thru the editing window so if u find errors or don’t like the post be quiet and take it up with my staff !
This is awesome
