my niece and nephew are Lisa and Bart

Seen online Friday afternoon, posted by my niece:
My parents are out of town so I’m left alone with my nineteen year-old brother Bradley. My mom left us one huge hunk of frozen meat in the freezer so he took it upon himself to “grill” it. I looked outside and I saw him flailing around with a lighter trying to run away from the wasps that were inside the grill that hasn’t been used in at least a year and then he proceeded to “try to light the wasps on fire”. He was trying to put the fucking meat on a nasty ass wasp infested grill. He then called for me to spray the grill with Raid and I had to explain to him that it is incredibly flammable and it does not belong on a fucking grill where you cook food. I’m so terribly sorry that I couldn’t find my camera in time to film it.
So basically, without her around, my nephew would have (1) burned the house down shortly before (2) poisoning himself.

I called Mom and said, "Now might be a good time to call the kids and invite them over for dinner."

Unfortunately, I think the take-away lesson here was "Set shit on fire, get free dinner at The Sportsman's Grille with awesome grandmother."
