Generator safety PSA: ***DO NOT FILL UP A RUNNING GASOLINE GENERATOR***
Gasoline fumes are released when you refuel the tank, and there is a high risk of igniting those vapors from the hot exhaust of the generator. You should not only turn OFF the generator, but also WAIT FOR IT TO COOL DOWN.
(you can get devices to toggle tanks/etc. safely, but most people do not have this).
The worst time to cause yourself burn injuries (and worse yet, maybe set your neighborhood on fire) is during the middle of a disaster.
