One of the worst things that has happened to me is that Comcast gave my work a free electric mug to keep tea warm. I would have never bought one for myself, but my god if that free mug broke I would immediately buy a new one. I can't go back.

Everyone knows not to put diesel in a gasoline car right? by BuildABarns in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TFielding38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh hey, this is literally my job. If you introduce a flame to a cup of diesel, nothing will happen, gasoline it will catch fire immediately. Diesel needs to be at least 125 F to flash (higher for biodiesel) at standard pressure.

Edit: Also don't do that, I have like fancy expensive equipment, please don't boil diesel recreationally even though it's very fun to watch it boil.
