Default This makes no sense....

Yesterday I sent my boy who's 18 to buy a couple tins of compressed air from poundland to blow out his Xbox cooling fan as it was full of dust etc and over heating at times...he wasn't allowed to buy it apparently as you've got to be over 25...but he could of bought alcohol no problem....WTF....it's AIR ffs...not even flammable.

Yep, sounds daft to most. But, compressed air - even only to a couple of atmospheres - is dangerous along with other propellants. Not so long ago naughty boys, and girls, were doing bad things with it. It can blind you very easily!
