Have your husband get the video camera ready, because bursting into confetti would be a PRIMO way to go. SO MUCH BETTER than spontaneous combustion.
Come on out, River. The nice man wants to kidnap you.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Steph, you are awesome and my ongoing fear of medicine (like magnets, how does it _work_?) aside I adore you right now. But DH adores you even more and may actually be making notes on the label about instances involving flames shooting from eyes require additional treatment but otherwise, CHILL. ...
your entertainment for the evening, people. I live to serve.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I think you've found the theme for this year's Republican National Convention.

DH is pointing out that spontaneous combustion post confetti would be impressive too. He's offered to find the camera.
SIGH. I'm never going to live this down, am I.

We published a letter once about a woman who kept spraying her entire (unclothed) body with Raid because it felt like bugs were crawling on her. She did this many times a day, over a week or so. There was some central nervous system toxicity.
So, yeah -- there is always someone who's done something stupid.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Was the toxicity from the Raid or this was prior to the Raid?

The toxicity was from the Raid. I think (but I can't remember, because we published it back in the late 90s) that she may have also wrapped her arms and legs with plastic wrap after the Raid, because she didn't want it to rub off, so she really helped the absorption of Raid into her system.
I can't remember if she had mental disabilities or not; I feel like she did, and the Raid thing made sense to her and no one was apparently monitoring her to realize what she was doing.
