I had an interesting experience today.

So I was just cutting the grass today (like a boss), trying to earn some extra cash, when all of a sudden the lawn mower sputtered and burst into flames.

I don't think I've ever ran so fast in my life.

And I think I can probably forget about that extra cash.

That sounds like fun. Did it also start flying? :o

Better than having run over a yellow jacket hive. Getting swarmed is not fun. I'd know, I'm a beekeeper.

You'd be surprised how often mowers catch fire. It's an age thing mixed with lack of service. Hope nothing happened to ya.

1300606 Hahahaha unfortunately, no. That would've been a great replacement for that "there is no need to be upset" gif.
1300607 I'm fine, I was just really rattled for a while. I've never had to deal with anything like that firsthand and I'm glad I could get experience with something like that in a not so dangerous way.

Never occurred to you to put it out? Like maybe with a nearby fire extinguisher.

1300705 I was mowing at my grandmas old barn, which didn't have a fire extinguisher, and the nearest hose couldn't reach nearly far enough.

So you just don't know what went wrong?

For some reason, I couldn't help but think of this instance from Button's Adventures.

But seriously, hope you're OK. I guess there's your dose of interesting for the day.

Sounds like you had an interesting day. Glad you`re OK

Sounds like an interesting day.

If that had been me I would have fainted Glad you're okay though. Doesn't happen often, does it? Now I'm going to be extra careful around lawnmowers from now on..
