Original Message: Fairly certain the criminals were not laughing.
If I were one small spark away from being burned to death, unable to breathe and having to flee from anyone who might be able to help me because they'd bring the heat, it would make me...pensive. For those who may not know, "bring the heat" is a term from the USA with origins circa 1920's'30's (?) commonly used by criminals in reference to something that would cause one to be swiftly, intensely pursued by law enforcement officers (aka "the heat").
