This would be funny if not for the tragedy

Bikini Barista, poor girl, lost her life..

Those who don't live the PNW, yes they are a thing.

poor girl.. and some of the comments left for her death and "lifestyle".. I need to go out and find something pleasant to do now..

What bit of that would be funny?

Comments on 'news' websites have got to be one of the worst ideas ever.

I'm a bit surprised comment sections still exist. I assume they are only there for one guy in the newsroom that keeps them up for his own amusement.

Yeah, I don't see anything funny about a 80% TBSA burn and a resulting death.

This story sucks and all, but it looks to me like this happened in the parking lot of a gas station. Things could have really gone downhill under the right circumstances.

What started the fire? Can the next one be prevented?

I came here hoping to find something funny.

nothing funny about this story. Lots of weird funny things about bikini baristas their Instagram fame, their $5 reach in tuggers. Wayward frazzled housewives with a minivan full of kids that pull up to a coffee place and find some 18 year old wearing a thong and two x's of elecrical tape.

I guess it must be a pnw thing.

Keep in mind, she owned the stand and had just bought it not long ago.

I suspect that it had leaking propane line for the heater.

Tragic way to go.

leaking propane scares me to death. A lot of boats use it for cooking and heating.. I refuse to have it on any boat I own.

Nothing funny here. Just really sad. For her sake I hope she never regained consciousness during her last week. Burns are horrible.

I don't know about mad Machine, but I'd use a diesel fired cook top. Webasto makes one.

at the moment, I have an alcohol fueled stove. The next boat will use diesel
