When I bought my car the first thing I did was throw away the tire iron. Having it there might tempt me to try to change the tire myself. Now I am forced to call the auto club and leave it to the real professionals.
I'm much safer now...
Or at least that's the mentality in the UK:
Fire extinguishers could be removed from communal areas in flats throughout the country because they are a safety hazard, it has emerged.The life-saving devices encourage untrained people to fight a fire rather than leave the building, risk assessors in Bournemouth decided.
I thought that this was a joke. And then I saw your URL. I mean I guess you could argue the entire UK is a joke now, in which case, my initial assessment was correct.
