Unless it’s butane. Butane is lighter fluid.

Butane's a bastard gas

I'll tell you what.

What would that be measured by?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

volume? at least here thats how its measured when you get that mixed 60/40% with propane (i think) for your car as LPG. but then its under pressure and due to that a liquid

It's lighter so you can't measure it

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (2 children)

I feel like this may be a pun, but I feel like you can measure butane

It's hits so weird because the joke is about mass and the picture is about volume.

It was a terrible pun. Butane is commonly used for lighters, as in for making fire.

Thanks, I’ll be here all week.
