Exclamation Dangerous Under Any Circumstances!

I was just thinking about the times when I got gasoline on my hand(s) because the nozzle dripped or simply because the pump handle was a little wet and dirty from previous users.

The chances of a calamity happening are far greater than one would think or could imagine. "Look ma. No hands!"
