“said he was pouring gasoline on a garden bonfire”
My guess is HE wasn’t drinking Coke.

I guess the son represents the next evolutionary rung because the father should have been selected out a while back.

Maybe Richard Pryor should have tried that . . . oh, different kind of coke . . . nevermind. :)

When I was a teen, my sister’s bed in the basement bedroom caught fire (bad outlet next to blankets). I grabbed the dehumidifier bucket to put it out. Later I found out that you aren’t supposed to use water on electrical fires. It worked out anyway.

I’m tempted to make an argument here about wasting Coke. That stuff is getting expensive now, you know.

Glad he didn’t use one of the many beer mugs that must have been sitting around.

Not bad!! All that foamy coke was foamy with CO2- the kid used an impromptu carbon dioxide fire extinguisher!

Long time ago at work some sawdust started on fire early in the morning. The boss spotted a cup of coffee nearby and threw it on the flames and was quite surprised when the flames flared up and got bigger.
Turns out the coffee was actually Jack Daniels and the employee drinking it got in a bit of trouble.

This raised an important question. What would have happened if the kid had dissolved a Mentos in the coke before attempting to extinguish the fire?

“Teen extinguishes dad with Coke”
My first impression was to read the headline assuming “extinguish” meant “put an end to” and believing I would be reading about the first-ever Coke homicide.
