This is quite a simple and modest proposal, for a range of
fireworks which can be safely inserted into one or both nostrils
before lighting. The fireworks themselves would be of the
"fountain" type, and shaped to ensure that the fountain of sparks
is emitted at a nose-safe and lip-safe angle.
Moustaches may
pose a challenge.
Nobody would ever be stupid enough to...

I can see the courtroom now. Attorney for the plaintiff: "Mr
Buchanan, you are the inventor of the "Snoot Shooter" nasal
pyrotechnic device are you not?" |
|
| |
They still wear those adorable little curly wigs over there?
Gosh those are sweet. A grown man wearing one of those
could not be cuter. |
|
| |
//They still wear those adorable little curly wigs over there?
// I believe they still do at some levels of the judiciary,
rather like your president. You'll find it easier to understand
once your country has been around for a thousand years or so
and picked up a little history. |

Actually he wears a ceremonial comb-over but well played.
According to the Marquess of Queensberry rules I left myself
open for that one. Or is it Marquis de Sade rules? I get those
guys mixed up. All a bunch of fancy lads in my book. |
|
| |
// I get those guys mixed up. // |
|
| |
As to the idea ... not exactly Baked, but there has been a certain amount of impromptu research in the field. |
|
| |
The results were not encouraging. |
|
| |
Snuff.. I mean sneeze activated. I am imagining a powder block, while compact is inert but once given enough dry space gives a luminescent ignition. |
|
| |
You know you could very easily and safely do a "smoke"
version of this that's activated by blowing through your
nose. Be a good way to emphasize something or show
belligerence. |
|
| |
[doctorremulac3] Coloured vaping? water soluble and a low level white cell production activator. |
|
| |
// Be a good way to emphasize something // |
|
| |
Such as "you are an exhibitionist with little or no grasp of the consequences of your actions, your only TV viewing is 'Jackass', and your ambition is to be given a Darwin Award (posthumously)" ? |
|
| |
Has to have been thought of no? |
|
| |
//Be a good way to emphasize something// // Such
as you are an exhibitionist with little or no grasp of
the consequences of your actions// |
|
| |
I'm seeing marketing gold here. |
|
| |
I think we could get Donald* to be the face of our marketing
campaign. Just imagine if he could call Kim** "rocket man"
and, to emphasize his point, tilt his head back and shoot
flames from his nostrils. |
|
| |
*Trump, not Duck
**Jong Un, not Kardashian |
|
| |
I'd be more interested to see the "duck" and
"Kardashian" interchange. |
|
| |
//a thousand years of history// |
|
| |
Here we call it 'baggage.' |
|
| |
Perhaps some of those pop rocks up your nose
could
give a bit of a kick without all of the pyrotechnics? |
|
| |
//I'd be more interested to see the "duck" and "Kardashian"
interchange.// Hmm. I'd never had you pegged as an
intellectual elitist until now. |
|
| |
//a bit of a kick without all of the pyrotechnics// But it's the
pyrotechnics that are the point. |
|
| |
//Hmm. I'd never had you pegged as an intellectual elitist
until now.// |
|
| |
Yea, and I right pretty good to. Long as I've got spellcheck
on I'm unstoppable. |
|
| |
I have drawings for a series of photographs on
topic of smoking belly buttons. A small insulating
crucible protects the belly button from the heat of
the source (smouldering incense) but I'm open to
other suggestions It's not an idea I would post
here, but thought I might ask. |
|
| |
Listen [xen], if you're trying to out-weird everyone here .... er, you're doing pretty well, actually. |
|
| |
// I'm seeing marketing gold here. // |
|
| |
... but probably not smelling it, because of all the burn damage in your nasal passages. |
|
| |
I'm conservative. I shun physical attention, I'm
uncomfortable signing autographs and don't like being
complimented so I wouldn't be the type to stuff pyrotechnic
devices up my nose to get people to look at me. I like seeing
stuff I create satisfying a need but other than
that I'm very happy being anonymous. |
|
| |
That being said, somebody could sell "Dragon Smoke" nose
puffers or something. Just not to me. |
|
| |
I don't get hay fever as such, but occasionally suffer from protracted and explosive sneezing fits, where people rather concernedly, yet redundantly, ask me, "Are you alright?" to which I can only reply with an upraised hand as I anticipate the next oncoming, ear shattering volley that I am, indeed, not "alright." |
|
| |
So the very idea of a pyrotechnic and loud, colourful demonstration that so energetically displays my diisposition at these times, I applaud. People may then stop telling me, "You may be allergic to House Mites, cranberry juice, etc." or some such nonsense. |
|
| |
I'd rather discover an allergy to cordite. Bring on the nasal bangs 'n' booms. |
