Enter Ye, Weary Hunter
Unbag Thyself The Firesome Lippy
Fire! Prometheus liked it so much, he brought it to earth, that we may
have toast, and arson. Of course, he got strapped to a mountain with his
liver pecked at by seagulls or something for his troubles. But the question
remains.. what happened in the days before fire was brought down from the
heavens in a chariot... of fire?
-
When two rocks were banged together
-
There were no sparks - instead, the sound was used to imitate a horses
cantering. After fire was invented, humans had to make the move to coconuts
to avoid accidents.
-
A magnifying glass left unattended in woodland
-
Would not be a breach of the Country Code - it was encouraged, as the
bending of light would create a lovely rainbow, under which an elf would
ensure that all mummy pigs had enough nipples for their offspring.
-
Flame-Throwers
-
Were known as "hose-pipes".
-
A twisted pointy stick
-
Was not initiate smouldering - and was often used to make breathing
holes for worms, who had fallen asleep without surfacing for air.
But that's not all. The lack of fire in Pre-Prometheus England had far
more far-reaching implications. For instance...
-
Bonfire Night
-
The only firework was that indoor firework "pill that turns into a long
stringy poo".
-
Independance Day
-
Was celebrated by the insersion of a rod into a cat, which was then
waved around in the air. The screaming of the cat was an aural substitute
for fizzling sparklers.
-
Disney's Fire Mountain
-
Wasn't as good.
On the side of the lipstick, you notice the letters "BU".
