      Never thought about why people throw molotovs that way, but that makes a lot of sense

      If you dip, tape the rag to the bottle and close it there’s no spillage. Safety first!

    Good old Samwise, a real salt of the earth fellow.

    (Something something something his boots weren’t fucking yellow)

        I wrote the first sentence, then remembered the poems Tolkein wrote about Tom Bombadil.

        Tom Bombadil was a merry old fellow

        his jacket was blue and hit boots were yellow

        (not verbatim, from memory)

        Well, I’m talking about Sam and he’s a hobbit, he doesn’t even wear boots. It was mostly just weird silly connections in my head after writing down the first sentence fairly seriously. I had just happened to end the sentence with “fellow” and then couldn’t help myself.

        Sometimes. And then you have a puddle on the ground on fire. No sweet explosions or sounds or anything.

      So the wick is in the mouth of the bottle because it’s more secure there than if you tied it around the neck?

        The wick soaks up the fuel so it lights up easy and stays lit, while also plugging up the hole so the fuel doesn’t spill out of the bottle until after it’s thrown and breaks.

    I really like this meme, but it needs a “, Mr. Frodo,” inserted between the words “cocktail,” and “and.”
