[flashy]

me and my sis broke one when we where about 5, we used to have a lamp in our bedroom and we must have been bored one night, we where taking it in turns to spit on it to make the bulb sizzle, and sizzle it did, it blew up in our faces, we had some rather awful cuts to our faces....we didnt know a thing at that age, we obviously didnt tell mum we had been spitting on it, she'd have gone ballistic, 1 because we where taught never to spit because it was disgusting, rude and dirty and 2 for applying water to electricity

we just told her it blew up in our faces

disgusting i know, but i was only 5
