When you fart into a lit match and it explodes
I had like 4 bowls of chili at Rick's Superbowl party. The resulting fart was brilliant, as was the size of the flame it produced. A proper halftime gaslighting.

A MKULTIMATE neurolinguistic programming system utilizing emerging information and communications technologies to flood the field with Truth, the Light of Christ, for Ultimate Victory.

Commandeered from MKULTRA's piece of shit tin can rust bucket death contraption, "gaslight," the GasLight is, according to Virginia Woolf, "life is a luminous halo," which has been directly tapped to fuel the apparatus.

A literacy program to Ultimately Optimize Human Health.
In voice-to-skull la-la-land I saw Rebecca holding the gaslight. I was, like, "Do you mind if I borrow that for a second?" and as soon as I got my hands on that piece of shit tin can rust bucket death contraption gaslight I shoved it so hard up its own f**** ass it disintegrated, annihilated, dusted, atomized, roasted, toasted, and burnt to a crisp. I awful waffled it. Then I gathered up the leftover fragments of the busted ass gaslamp and shoved them straight down wormhole circa 1936. IDK what some gaslit nitwit would want to play with the old gaslight for. What will you do with the broken pieces of the gaslamp? Make a leash to walk your dog? Fly the broken pieces of the gaslight like a kite? Anyway, by the time your ate-up-on-voice-to-skull ass goes looking for some bad gas, for old times' sake, as you approach the smelly-ass wormhole, you will notice stretched across the horizon,"life is a luminous halo," which we tapped for the new GasLight. I am targeting you with a luminous halo.

Hey, TI: I'm not just gaslighting you, I'm GasLighting all that which will be GasLit. Hey, TI: I'm not just GasLighting you, I'm GasLighting all that which is GasLightable. Hey, TI: I'm not just GasLighting you, I'm GasLighting everything in known existence.

I'm here to destroy the world, and I'm gonna make you help me; with your child-loving ass; with your big-forehead ass.

This is a Good GasLight. This is a nice story.
