Or give someone a Styrofoam cup and asking then to fetch you some cleaning solvent or gas to prime the lawn mower. And this next one I actually saw with my own two eyes, "I was driving down the road one day and saw a guy pouring gas into a cup and trying to pour it into a tank of a car than had run out of gas. The gas container had a wide mouth so he couldn't get the angle to pour directly into the car's tank. I pulled over, took out a sheet of large notebook paper, rolled it into a funnel and problem solved. Boy, was that funny. Watching that guy trying to scrape the dissolved foam cup from the side of that car. My funnel didn't leak one bit." B
