yeah, immolate, but I have read the definition as to kill yourself by fire, so then I have to say "tries to immolate himself" or tried, which sounds kinda weird because he did light himself on fire, he just didn't die.

 

I mean you guys can joke all you want, but things here are only getting worse.

Tough crowd eh Dru? Maybe you should mention something about the guy being a conservative Christian or something in order to elicit a better reception of your commentary.

Sad no. Stupid yes.

 

Shouldn't you change your avatar name to Douchebag?
