I did that this afternoon. No fire starter. Just your standard cylinder with the holes in it, some pine cones, two 1-pages of the newspaper, and some wax paper. The light wasn’t perfect because the charcoal was from last year. My burgers didn’t get burnt, and they didn’t taste like chemicals. Yeah, me.
I recommend to you this “Wapsi Square” comic – http://wapsisquare.com/comic/getting-his-attention/
Note that Shelly already has the {cartoon-type} signs of having survived an Event in the first panel.
{It is worth noting that by this point in the continuity Shelly is essentially indestructible… Comes of having a sphinx for grandmother and a Titan for a mother.}

Foxtrot and Crankshaft appear to share some themes.

When it sits out in the sun or when the engine is still warm, I don’t have to prime the lawn mower to get it started.

There will always be some petroleum distillates that evaporate before burning. Great stuff to breathe in and taste on your food.

We need to keep track of how many fire beacons Roger has made with that grill.

Every summer we hear that BBQ foods are loaded with carcinogens and bad for us, but that doesn’t stop us from eating them

If he squirts so much starter on well after it’s started and the fire goes up to the second floor of their house, then this is my neighbor.

Why doesn’t Roger just get a gas grill?

A gas grill is to bbq’ing what a microwave is to cooking. Some will just never get it.

Reminds me of my first time with a charcoal grill – all of our meat ended up tasting like starter fluid!
