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.

Rob is a fucking legend. And the answer is yes.

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.

Well fuck Rob for being curious I guess. If I were his teacher I would have laughed my ass off and gave him an A.
