I was bored and flipping through television channels and came across a truTV program called “FFF” or “Funniest Fantastic Failures.”

It was a program where it appears there’s a host and a panel of three people who, I guess, rate and joke about the videos they see. It was worth a few minutes of half-hearted attention.

Or so I thought.

One video involved two teenage boys with gasoline and someone recording their flammable endeavor. Somehow, one young man’s baggy pants got gasoline on them and his pants caught fire. Their friends watched him run around the yard with his legs aflame.

Yep, that’s a really funny “fail” video.

I guess I’m getting too old to appreciate what is considered funny on TV anymore, since I don’t consider watching a person who is on fire at all entertaining or funny.
