assettleine

A hotly-burning gas dat's good for warming a room so dat you can relax your behind on a chair and really get calm-'n'-comfy.
On chilly days, I give my torch-welders a half-dozen short breaks --- rather than two or three lengthy ones --- throughout da workday to come in and get warm if they have to work outdoors; my theory is dat they might develop an "assettleine" feeling with an extended rest-period in da toasty break-room, and then it would be difficult to get them to drowsily budge out of their cushy seats to venture out into da freezing temperatures again.

asettlene torch

A figurative "flame-thrower" device dat you use to majorly "light a fire" under someone who has comfortably relaxed down on his posterior when he should be "up and about" and making himself useful.
In da Pink Panther animated cartoon "Shocking Pink", da persistent-but-unseen voice is a major asettlene torch to da increasingly-frustrated/infuriated fuchsia feline, turning an initially-quiet afternoon into a totally-chaotic disaster.

So many politicians and other officials are really lazy about getting up off their butts and actually fulfilling their assigned duties; we often need to resort to breaking out da assetylene torches just to get said fat-cat indolents to do their jobs!
