Beware

I guess next time he'll take her seriously when she yells, "I swear to God, Vladimir, put that thing away or I'll set it on fire!"

Hmm... What was on TV?

Was he watching Hot Rod racing at the time? Perhaps he had been practising his german; I say dear, "ich habe ein brennendes steifes".. whilst watching some "WhatBoysWant" vids and his ex misses got the hump and decided to take his comment as a request!

Ouch

He described it as "Mosntrously Painful", well now we know.

I wonder if Mrs Boris in a fit of remorse is going to offer to apply the savlon? (picture scenes from a singing detective with Joanne Whalley).

A song springs to mind.

"Come on baby light my fire"

OUCH!!!!!

i bet she asked him.. 

Posted Wednesday 22nd August 2007 13:53 GMT

to put that flaming thing away.

Closer to home..... 

Posted Wednesday 22nd August 2007 14:01 GMT

but a similar story

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/merseyside/4253849.stm

ouch!!

Rude not to...

Up late, burning the candle at both ends perhaps ?

If it was in Oz 

Posted Wednesday 22nd August 2007 15:42 GMT

You could have had "woman chucks another shrimp on the barbie".

I'll get me coat.

Ok let's think 

Posted Wednesday 22nd August 2007 19:22 GMT

Let's think about whether this is a good idea. Over there sits my ex-wife. Let me go ahead and take all my clothes off, and then sit here naked in from of the TV with my giant gut, and to top it off, I'll sip some Vodka. Preferably when she's got a date coming.

Gosh...you think she'll be offended???

Dirty bastard deserved what he got.

Women be warned!

There are many over-the-counter products that can be surreptitiously applied to certain women's undergarments that cover certain parts of a woman's anatomy that will induce (over a short time) an overwhelming desire to remove such undergarments immediately. In great haste. No matter the current company.

While not physically scarring like fire on a "stick", the target of revenge being stuck on an airliner or some other suitably confined space and being forced to disrobe in public because her nether regions were on fire.....Priceless.

Men rule the world for a reason.

oh nasty... 

Posted Wednesday 22nd August 2007 20:27 GMT

I'd put some deep heat on that.

is that my coat?

Another song springs to mind 

Posted Wednesday 22nd August 2007 21:10 GMT

"My Old Flame"

Far more appropriate, as three years on she's still carrying a torch for him. How romantic ^^

igmc

oh man 

Posted Wednesday 22nd August 2007 23:40 GMT

this isn't funny that had to hurt real bad stupid woman

he didn't do anything to deserve mutilation she

deserves to spend time in a russian prison.On

second thought no she deserves to still live with

the guy I am sure he has ideas on what to do.

Perhaps...... 

Posted Thursday 23rd August 2007 07:55 GMT

Just maybe he should get to do the equivalent to her in retribution? I'm always one for "an eye for an eye" punishments. You know.....funnel some petrol down her chuff and then lob in a match?

Behold... 

Posted Thursday 23rd August 2007 08:35 GMT

...the burning bush commeth?

Another Jerry Lee Lewis song comes to mind 

Posted Thursday 23rd August 2007 08:37 GMT

"Goodness gracious - great balls of fire"

'Men rule the world for a reason.'

WOW, and I just wanted to say what a bang up job you guys are doing.

So good in fact that perhaps you should move on to being some sort of powerless figurehead and let people who know what they are doing run it instead.

Or anyone else really...

I wouldn't bandy about statements like that unless you want to start a wave of incidents similar to this one.

He *didn't* deserve it? 

Posted Thursday 23rd August 2007 09:18 GMT

So if you were watching telly in the nude would you deserve to have your genitalia set on fire? Really? You actually think that?

What was on TV 

Posted Thursday 23rd August 2007 09:58 GMT

Maybe he was watching Dr Who

And she preferred "Torchwood"

@Andy Worth 

Posted Thursday 23rd August 2007 10:02 GMT

Priceless - fell off me stool laughing.

Just trying to picture it now.....

Is Spike Ravenscroft... 

Posted Thursday 23rd August 2007 12:03 GMT

A man or a woman? "you guys"? Never heard Spike used as a woman's name before, maybe I'm just being naive but I call shenanigans.

Although I bet he wishes she wasn't 

Posted Thursday 23rd August 2007 12:26 GMT

I guess after all these years she was still carrying a flame for him.

Its only funny until someone gets hurt, and then it's hilarious

He's lying, sarge 

Posted Thursday 23rd August 2007 12:37 GMT

He's a liar liar, pants on fire.

Ahaha.

For Iain Cartledge 

Posted Thursday 23rd August 2007 16:27 GMT

Yes, believe it or not, I am a woman and I read the Register and my name is Spike.

*gasp* Yes folks, all of the above are true.

Everybody happy now?

:D

Heh...

Gives new meaning to "burning sensation"...
