That’s not how you do that at all.

For how common fire extinguishers are, it seems like no one actually knows how to use them. Of course, each fire extinguisher comes with instructions on the side, but do you really expect someone to *read* in a stressful moment? There’s fire to be dealt with!

Consequently, there are a lot of incidents of people showing up to a fire with an extinguisher, not knowing how to use it, and making the situation worse. Rarely, however, do we see something like this, where the fire extinguisher was so ashamed of its misuse that it decided to make an exit.
