This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

You definitely shouldn't use a rag as a stopper for your glass bottle full of gasoline, especially if you might need to throw it away from you in the event the rag spontaneously combusts.

It would be much safer for the bottle to be sealed so the fuel inside doesn't ignite until it's further away from you.

But where else am I gonna store all my 1/4" ball bearings other than a glass bottle full of gasoline to keep them nice and clean? And the rag conveniently serves as a stopper and a way to dry the bearings if I ever need one.

But I gotta be carefull, the bearings can pop the bottle easily even if it hits something soft like a person.

It would definitely be safer to tape the rag to the outside so none of it spills. Maybe even oil the rag so it doesn't get wet.
