A fire in a fireplace? So unexpected. Even M. Night Shyamalan (is that spelled correctly?) cannot come up with a twist like this.

Fires in a fireplace can be very dangerous, and can be caused when theres alot of stuff in the chimney and it builds up and can light the fireplace on fire.

Here in Portland, we have ads for "creosote burning logs" which supposedly get rid of the creosote (fancy name for bits of wood) stuck in your chimney.

Yeah, we do. I never thought other places wouldn't have them though. We also don't use umbrellas.

Uh, they don't mean like a normal fire. This is the exact reason we don't have fires in our fireplace anymore - they built it wrong. There are exposed beams in there or something.

Creosote-the stuff that causes such chimney fires- build up is actually a real problem. Luckily there are special things to buy to burn that destroy it. OP, FYL. I hope I never experience that. :(

This FML is too short for you to have to use a question mark.
