12 year old thinks he’s hot stuff, burns crotch

Sony may not exactly make the safest products for those in America that might need … “more emergency care attention” than others. While it would seem that urinating on an active console would not be a good idea, as one guy found out (looking for said story, but if anyone wants to help out, please do), it would also seem that putting the Sony PSP, the portable gaming device known for heating problems, into your pants would be a bad thing. Who would’ve guessed?

A Warner Middle School student was in band class while his PSP was stowed away in his pants pocket. Later, around 8:30 a.m., Farmington Hills firefighters were called to the school, as the seventh grader’s pants miraculously spontaneously caught on fire due to the PSP overheating.

What a band geek! He’s not going to live this indignity down for a while. I mean, first of all, he gets his pants caught on fire because of video game unit, not something cool like cigarettes, but not only from the sounds of it, he was using a third party battery pack. He’s not even using the official product? Double lame band geek hall of shame for him!

I wonder if the kid is a red head?
