someone please get the chat logs translated
I didn't realize someone died.
Some of the post in the thread made me laugh. Now I feel terrible.
Oh...okay.

Nobody died.
I bought a fire extinguisher today. I really need to put it somewhere out of sight because I keep looking at it and I want to try it out. It's not really a "try it out" kind of thing though!
I hope it works. What if it doesn't? How will I ever know until it's too late!

Oh man, this why I love the digital age. People streaming their lives hours every day as we get to watch them do the dumbest shit and upload it to YouTube, complete with lolli voiceover. I understand people make bad choices in a state of panic, but this guy here did everything wrong. At least no one was hurt and only his room burned.
Got to go on site of a demolition and they had a bunch of expired fire extinguishers so he took them and tested them out. The CO2 ones are extremely messy so I wouldn't try it if I were you.
Good for you. I bought one for my parents house once and it just ended up expired without using.

Well, that is the dream
Which is probably the best case scenario for one. It's one of those things that you want available, but you never want to be in a situation where you actually need to use it.
Uh? You mean powder/foam? Because a CO2 extinguisher produce only a cloud of gas and dry ice, without leaving shit around.
This reminds of the time when i was young and home alone and tried to roast marshmellows on the stove. Had the marshmellow on a knife and turned the fire on and the whole thing instantly caught on fire and i instantly freaked.
Did the dumb thing of trying to swing the knife up and down frantically hoping it would put out the fire. Naturally it didn't.
I calmed myself for a quick second and turned around to the sink and put water on it.
So on one hand i can understand the panic that sets in when something goes ablaze unexpectedly but if he had the werewithall to pick the bag up to try to move it then he should have just took it to the bathroom'/sink.

Why do I sense a bit of disappointment lol
Don't test it if it's a powder one. Once you use it the stuff stays caught in the valve causing all the pressure to slowly leak out. Just check the pressure gauge every once in a while.

Poor dumbass. Glad no one was hurt. The Minecraft lava bubbling sound playing while he was fucking up was pretty funny.

I wasn't really going to test it, it's just new-toy syndrome. I want to use it :lol
I realise I can't!
That's what he was trying to do, I assume, but then either he gets burned or the bag melts and he loses it.

It wasn't bullshit, it was just crossed wires. Someone died in a second unrelated fire, and someone got the stories confused.

This thread convinced me to buy a kidde pro 210 fire extinguisher from Amazon. Hope I'll never have to use it. They're cheaper than I thought.

The news article posted earlier says 1 was killed ...
The same article which was disputed as being a different fire to this one?
Different fire. Completely different area of japan. Different story.

Interesting, my apartment provided one per house. Has to get inspected each year. Hope I never have to use it, but glad to have it around. Someone still managed to burn down a complex with one though...
Dumb girl burnt boyfriend's clothes IN the apartment.
