"In retrospect, lighting the match was my big mistake. But I was only
trying to retrieve the gerbil." Eric Tomasewski told bemused doctors in
the Severe Burns Unit of Salt Lake City Hospital. Tomaszewski, and his
homosexual partner, Andrew "Kiki" Farnum, had been admitted for
emergency treatment after a felching session had gone seriously wrong.
"I pushed a cardboard tube up his rectum and slipped Raggot, our
gerbil, in," he explained. "As usual, Kiki shouted out "Armageddon", my
cue that he'd had enough. I tried to retrieve Raggot but he wouldn't
come out again, so I peered into the tube and struck a match, thinking
the light might attract him."
At a hushed press conference, a hospital spokesman described what
happened next. "The match ignited a pocket of intestinal gas and a
flame shot out the tube, igniting Mr. Tomaszewski's hair and severely
burning his face. It also set fire to the gerbil's fur and whiskers
which in turn ignited a larger pocket of gas further up the intestine,
propelling the rodent out like a cannonball."
Tomaszewski suffered second degree burns and a broken nose from the
impact of the gerbil, while Farnum suffered first and second degree
burns to his anus and lower intestinal tract.

But at least it *was* a FUNNY story.
That "broken nose" part sealed it as being phony, though.
There's no way that the physics involved could have enabled
even a ROCK to be propelled with enough force to do that.
Hey look, "J Young" has finally been released from drug rehab!:

Gee, one day J<unkie> is "a doctor", the next he's a "black man", and today
he's a woman.
Aren't there meds for his condition?
