Would’nt a hot tub melt?
Duh!
Especially if there wasn’t any water in it
Frogs, boiling.
I hope they added some onion, celery, carrots and potatos into the water before they jumped into the hot boiling water.
Dumb Azzez!
As a California ex-pat, I can say that the logic used there was distinctly very Californian. They have a special kind of stupid there. Sorry they got hurt...but damn, people!
Boiled.
"Hey Alice, the fire's a comin' get the hot tub fired up and I'll grab the sushi. Oh don't forget the wine we picked up in Santa Ynez last winter. That'll tied us over till this thing simmers out in a few hours. Oops. Where's the camera. Gotta send a few to ole' grannie in Oklahoma. She'll get a kick outa this!"
“Like, totally not cool”...
Sounds like the mind set of someone from California You would be amazed at the way most people think here in California any questions why the state is a sh*et hole?.
Dummies. Probably forgot their water bottles to spritz themselves with.
Seemed like a good idea at the time..............
