Why?
@blaineg why not?
@blaineg honest answer
thanks to a loophole in the law, flamethrowers that produce less than 10 feet of fire are legal with no permit required in 48 states
also charging $500 each and selling 20,000 flame thrower raised $10,000,000 for elon musks boring company(it previously also sold hats to raise money)
Not that interested in June, get back to me in the winter when I’m shoveling my driveway.
Because we didn’t think you should own a flamethrower?
@sammydog01 but whyyy??? i’m a very responsible human adultish being.
@carl669 Hmmm…

I’m an Adult
Price: $19.00
Condition: Probably New
@sammydog01 yeah, but look at the beautiful pictures i produced while drunk. imagine what i could do with a flamethrower!
@narfcake i feel like carrying around a flamethrower would be more impactful than a shirt.
@carl669 Probably, but not necessarily in a good way.
Besides, $500 buys a lot of hair spray and lighters.
@carl669
@narfcake
Is that how much you spend to make your hair look like Wakko’s?
@PlacidPenguin I’m getting old. What hair?
@narfcake
@PlacidPenguin What’s with the lack of posting an Animaniacs related video?
@narfcake
Slightly preoccupied trying to find nothing in particular on Amazon.
@sammydog01 but but but I was only going to use it to roast marshmallows and sear steak…

I think it still needs modifications to increase output.
What could go wrong…
Instructions on how to make it are in the article. A fire extinguisher was included in the price.
@OldCatLady really? i can’t seem to find them. but, let’s face it, i’m kind of lazy and would much rather have just bought one.
damn… forgot to link the image:
@carl669 Having not opened or read the article, it looks suspiciously like a modified ‘Bug A-Salt’ gun.
@PooltoyWolf that’s a lot of modification, but it does bear a certain resemblance.
The bug-a-salt gun is a much more responsible and reasonably priced choice, by the way.
@carl669 I like this warning with it
Flamethrower: awesome!
But flamethrower approved by Elon Musk?
Isn’t that really so very 2017?
