Example: [Collected on the Internet, 2002]
Kansas City
An America Airlines flight enroute from Los Angeles to JFK airport in New York City was diverted to Kansas City yesterday when a passenger was noticed
attempting to light a fuse protruding from his rectum. Flight Attendant Bunny Haggarty said she noticed the man seated in an aisle seat leaning
forward and holding a cigarette lighter behind his legs. "I thought he was just trying to light a fart," said Haggarty, "like our pilots are always
doing on layovers. Then I saw this string-like thing hanging from his butt, and I got scared." Haggarty immediately called for assistance. Several
male passengers subdued the man before he was able to light the fuse.
Butt Bomb!
