I was in high school in the '80s. One day in history class we had a military recruiter come speak to us. After he was done the speaker said "any questions?" My buddy Rob raised his hand and said "yeah, I have a question: does napalm still stick to kids?" I'm still proud of Rob for that one.

    You can't just leave us hanging like that, what was the response?

    The teacher immediately said "OK no more questions" and that was that. Sorry, I wish this story had a better punchline.

    For the record yes, napalm does still stick to kids.
