25. and how are you going to enclose it tightly enough that it explodes
Edited on Tue Oct-14-03 04:10 PM by enki23
rather than burning really hot and really fast, and going *poof*. it would singe some eyebrows, i'm sure. at least, that's what happened when i, as a kid, tried to make homemade firecrackers out of my dad's reloading supplies. (see, nitrocellulose is what makes the bullet part come out of the gun part, basically) what they're trying to describe is some juvenile deliquent's pipe-bomb dream, except without the pipe. instead, it's wrapped in plush fabric.

yeah. be very afraid. it might set your hair on fire, but it probably won't.
