SPRINGVILLE, Utah — A man is facing charges in Utah after investigators say he started a massive fire when he tried to kill a spider using a lighter.
The fire, which started Monday afternoon, grew to approximately 40 acres by the time fire crews arrived, KSL reported.
Fortunately, the fire burned all the hair off Miss Muffet's Tuffet and saved her the cost of a Brazilian bikini wax.
ReplyDeleteBut... a goddamn SPIDER... Isn't there such a defense as justifiable arson?
ReplyDeleteBurning the spider was justifiable. Not stamping out the burning tuft of grass or whatever before the fire grew out of control was criminal.
