Meet standards

Assume all celebrities, or personal heroes, are assholes. That way, should you meet them in person, you'll never be crushed when they are, but elated when they're not.

How fire works

If a substance is flammable, heating it to its "ignition temperature" will create a combustion reaction, and the substance "burns"; more specifically "the compound molecules break apart, and the atoms recombine with the oxygen to form water, carbon dioxide and other products."

The light we see produced from fire is created from "the rising carbon atoms (as well as atoms of other material) emit[ting] light."
