"Loosing ones shit" would imply that one would no longer be full of it.
But please mind that there are health and decency laws to consider, so please do so in the appropriate facilities.

On the topic of explosions.

Explosions are bad.

Also they tend to surprise you when you aren't expecting them and elicit varying levels of panic and secondary followup emotions.

Balloon or air-pack pop - surprise/shock followed by mild hostility at perpetrator
Bicycle tire - Surprise and dismay if it was your bicycle
Bulging can - surprise and varying levels of disgust depending ones proximity to said can when it evacuated itself and the state of the contents - soda=annoyed  Surströmming=retch
Car tire - Surprise/Fear then just cold fear that you don't crash into anything while trying to maintain control
Bug spray can in campfire - Surprise then fear of a fire being started followed by rage at the idiot who thought it would be funny
Being rear ended in a car - Surprised shock followed by concern/anger
Pressure safety blowing out on a nearby tank being steamed - surprise [it is VERY loud] immediately followed by concern as one tries to find the exit in the clouds of steam
Gas main blowing out - WTF? Earthquake?  "Oh Shit" when you realize it is really bright and warm for the middle of the night.

And then there's the folks that only think of the immediate/short-term consequences that benefit them and they couldn't care less about everyone else.

haikupoet:
Two questions:

1. Does random dude with Rupert realize Millefeuille and Brun are on a date?
2. Do Millefeuille and Brun realize they're on a date?

1. Probably not.  He doesn't strike me as too bright or observant; also, he's probably quite heteronormative.
2. Millefeuille, 65% chance of yes.  Brun, 97% chance of no.  (Source for Brun: my personal experience.  It takes me 2-3 months of interacting with someone before I realize that we're dating.  That's why I gave it up circa 2000.)

Please note Brun's different reactions to George (the name I'm giving to Rupert's owner until we have one) asking for her phone number and Clinton giving her his digits.

Tova:
If no-one realises it's a date, is it really a date?

Don't be so harsh on him, he doesn't have access to the Official Shipping Channel.
