A bad idea

So we are sitting in the living room watching tv when Daddy gets up and lights a match. I figure that he's going to make coffee or tea so I go to offer to help. Suddenly, he pulls his arm back and throws the match four feet away to the far side of the kitchen floor. I watch the match sizzle out confused. The conversation that follows went something like this:
"What
"Why'd ya do that?"
"I smelled something funny and wanted to make sure it wasn't gas (cooking gas) that would fill up the house and kill us in our sleep."
"So you check by, if it was gas, blowing up the kitchen?"
"Admittedly it wasn't the best idea ever."
"Uh huh"
This is completely non-India related but this gives an idea of how being here messes up both our heads. Also, it's just really funny.
