Aunt’s XL Underwear Put Out Fire
A man used his aunt’s XL underwear to put out a fire in the kitchen. He and his cousin were frying bread when the meal caught fire. So, he “grabbed the nearest thing from a pile of laundry to put it out: his aunt’s billowing, powder blue, size XL underpants.”
The fire official said the general principle of using a large, wet cloth to cover a grease fire was a sound one.
As for using underwear: “Clearly it depends on what size you are — but I don’t want to go there.”
I think the fire official was right. Oh, the knickers were slightly scorched. Can anyone tell me why there’s a need to fry the bread? I usually see bread soaked in egg and then fried.
