She Don’t Lie; She Don’t Lie; She Don’t Lie — Propane
Chris Marion decided playing Guitar Hero was getting a little boring. Like any self-respecting borderline sociopathic boy, he knew that flames make everything better. So quite a bit of brass and copper and teflon tape later, he had a truly heroic Guitar Hero to play on.
Tapping into the Guitar Hero controller adds some electronics cred to the HVAC party. What exactly can your average non-borderline boy accomplish after learning everything your typical high school education has to offer? Not much. A boy’s got to make his own fun in this world.
For those about to singe your eyebows, we salute you!

Wholesome Explosions, Chapter 133: The Backyard Mortar
Back before running with scissors was considered a suicide attempt. Before being forced to wear a helmet to ride a plastic tricycle in the living room.
