    I did, but at least I did something about it. Haven’t heard as much about the ol triangle lately have you? Yeah, that was me. You’re welcome

    Why did the Bermuda triangle, quicksand, and maybe premature burial and stop drop & roll so capture our minds?

    Replace the quarter to call home with swallowing gum or something.

      To be fair stop drop and roll is still good advice. You just don’t find yourself on fire that often.

        The one time I did find myself on fire, I completely forgot about stop, drop, and roll. Instead I ran until I stumbled on the hillside, then shouted “am I still on fire?”

        Aaand that story is why I no longer fucks with charcoal grills.

    Personally, i assumed that being on fire was something i would have to go through at least once in my life. But as time goes on, i have not had the need to, even once, stop, drop or roll.

      The back of my jacket caught fire once around a firepit. Can confirm that “stop drop and roll” fixes that situation really quickly.

      Probably only time I’ll need that reflex though 🤞🏻

        I once fell ass backwards into a fire pit. I was stopped and dropped but I could not roll. Was pulled out pretty quickly but my butt will forever have those burns.
