        I’ve seen people wearing shirts that say “Kamaljoe” which seems to confirm your hypothesis. An alternative would be as both a racist and sexist nickname for her.

        Either way, certified room temperature IQ.

      Hay is typically wet and holds into moisture, and this is definitely made of hay no doubt. That said, hay isn’t normally flammable. The flammable stuff not in the picture is straw.

        Those bales are pretty new, so they’ll likely sit in the field drying for a while and definitely won’t be easy to light. But hay is absolutely flammable once dry, my friends and I almost burned an entire field because someone was lighting dried loose hay on fire while we were playing on them

        Hay is flammable if you try hard enough. Had a neighbor that caught a tractor on fire next to a stack of 500 bales (large round bales, about 1400# apiece). They all burned and nobody tried to put them out, it was a hellfire.

        Hay is normally put up at about 12% moisture. Wet bales catch fire because they rot and spontaneously combust.

          Bingo. That’s why you usually see hay bales left so far apart in fields to dry. Stack them together and they will catch themselves on fire.

          Any way, to OCs point, a well placed Molotov (or even just good ol gasoline) could fix the current flammability issue.

            Use diesel fuel or kerosene. Gasoline is too explosive and the vapor will burn your eyebrows off when it blows.

            They cure dry in the fields to a certain moisture content and then they are stored in a hay barn with proper ventilation and room. That shit in that picture won’t light but sure, any dipshit can add enough accelerant to something and it will burn.

    “The median income for a household in the county was $32,167” this is probably the richest guy in the whole county.

    Does that mean we can hold out hope for him to get eaten by a herd of cows?

    (It would be poetic justice after all the hamberders.)
