Today, my wife was complaining she always has to put up the Christmas tree. So this year while she was out shopping, I decided to put it up. I set it too close to the fireplace and it caught fire. I'm a firefighter. FML

What a twist! And that's some major irony.

I remember in High achool we saw a fire safety video. It showed a real christmas tree catch on fire due to being too close to a fireplace. There was a loud "fwooooommmm" and it was instantly engulfed in flames. barely 20 seconds later, the entire living room was on fire, filled with black smoke. We don't need no water, let the ************ burn

I personally feel like a man should always put up the Christmas tree. If you're a strong man don't let your wife do it!! At least you ended up trying though
