Elon Musk’s Boring Flamethrower

Flamethrower

Some classes set people on fire. Ze Pyro is a soul-less monster!

You may not realize it, but Elon Musk owns a Boring company. Specifically, The Boring Company, so named because they primarily work in tunneling. But they have something new on sale; it’s a flamethrower.

Well… it’s really more of a giant torch, that can project its flame a few feet (traditional military flamethrowers tend to have a base range of 160 feet). For $500, plus taxes, shipping, and fees, you can run around like the little pyromaniac you always were, deep inside. Well, unless you live in California or Maryland; California is the kind of place that hates fun (I should know, I lived there most of my life), and Maryland is the host of the nation’s crime-ridden capital so that one makes sense. But oddly enough, there aren’t any federal laws prohibiting private ownership of flamethrowers, so maybe Musk is onto something.

Do not do this cool thing.

Be honest, you kinda want one now. Hell if you know what you’ll do with it after that initial glow of owning a flamethrower wears off. Probably light your barbecue at maximum range. But the siren song of the flames calls to you.
