Llamas are dangerous, so if you see one where people are swimming, you shout: Look out, there are llamas!

I know. But I can't find the humor in imagining a pool with fire. Also, in spanish we would say "on" instead of "in" to apply the secons meaning. Or at leas to me that's how it would really mean that there's fire at the pool: "la pileta esta en llamas" vs. "hay llamas en la pileta".

Anyway... I am just an overthinker..
