 Topic: Inflammable Vs. Flammable
Posted: March 06 2007 at 18:08 |
Inflammable means that it can become inflamed (i.e. engulfed in flame).
Flammable was invented for people who didn't know English and assumed that inflammable meant that it couldn't become inflamed.
Therefore I prefer inflammable, because I like to always be right.
In light of that, Stonebeard, you might want to do some rethinking.  |

I remember that simpsons episode in which dr. Nick (the fake latino doctor) blew his consultory and blamed it to the word.

I'd rather not be worried of my house being burned to the ground. Inflammable is better.

Since the "in" thing to say is flamable then I pick inflamable. #1 rule for people trying to be cool, don't follow the crowd
