Life It's Time For a beverage....Long ****ing day Day!

**Bwana** · 11-24-2010, 07:21 PM

Let me start out by saying it's been an "interesting day."

Last year I held a little shin dig out in the man cave around Christmas. At that time of year, a lot of friends who live out of state, are in town to see their parents. I have gas heat in the garage, along with a wood burning stove. Last year, it was around -20 with the wind blowing, so I fired up the wood burning stove, to keep up with the cold air flowing in from people opening the door to go take a wizz.

Everyone was having a good time, sucking down the "free beer" from Greg's beer fridge. One of my friends had just bought a new down jacket and he leaned against the stove pipe and melted his jacket.

He was bitching about it and I reminded him that
stove pipes get hot and only a dipshit would try to lean on one.

Fast forward to yesterday.

The same crew is showing up this year (with their own ****ing beer) to do it again. I figured I would insulate the pipe in order to prevent some moron from trying it out as a leaning post and get branded. I called around and talked to some strokestick about the issue. He said, "no problem, "come on down and we'll get you fixed up!"

I don't know shit about insulation, so deferred to his expertise on the subject. He wanted to sell me 1 inch and I stepped up to the two inch, for added protection against dipshittery.

I installed it last night and decided to try it out over lunch to see how hot the insulation got. I threw in three logs and fired it up. About 15 minutes later, I start smelling smoke. I look up and the insulation is turning a mocha brown. WTF, I'm thing. About 2 minutes later, the stuff gets darker than the inside of on owls asshole and starts on fire!

Oh shit oh dear!

I grabbed a pair of welding gloves and start smacking the hell out of it and it goes out, for a few seconds. I opened the garage door, reached into the stove, grabbed the logs and gave them a fling into the alley. I headed back around and start beating on the fired up insulation again to put it out. I ran over and grabbed a chair and a hunting knife and slit it down to the pipe. I tore the crap off and gave it a toss into the alley, on fire. I then got the rest of the hot coals out of there.

I called the pecker heads up that sold me the shit and graveled their ass, up one side and down the other, telling them that I damn near lost my garage, because they didn't know shit about their product.

He offered to refund my money. I sent him an email while we were on the phone, with pictures. You could hear his voice change and he said, "what do you want us to do?" I told him I obviously needed a refund, but also wanted him to pick up the tab for all new stove pipe. There is a bunch of melted insulation stuck to it and I was worried about the structural integrity of the metal after being "super heated." He told me I could "sand it off." I said look dickweed, I sucked in way to much of this crap when I was speed cutting it off the pipe, I'm not taking in more. I said you have two choices here Ace, you can step up and replace the pipe, or you can talk to my lawyer?

He saw the light and agreed to do that.

Close freakn call.

Heh, if "Chippewa" would have sold me that crap, I would have cut her ass up and fired the stove back back up.

Moral of the story: Never let another man tell you how to wrap your pipe.

**Gonzo** · 11-24-2010, 07:53 PM

WTF? You'd think the dickweed would have researched the flash-point of the product before recommending it. Glad you're ok Greg. Enjoy the Mesotheleoma, (sp?) this ****-stick just caused you to contract in about 25 years or so.
What a worthless one who sucks the penis.

Thanks Face Man. I think he knows what NOT to sell now. The place only sells insulation, (Exxon, Conoco and places liek that) so you would think they would know WTF there were doing.
