Stupid is as stupid does


Fire Investigator: Do you know how the fire might have started?

Homeowner: Yes, I smelled gas in the basement. So I went down there and lit a candle so I could see where it was coming from.

Actual conversation after a fire in Medina, Ohio. Can't make this stuff up.

I'm a fan of such Darwinian circumstances. Survival of the fittest, and the dumb shall kill themselves in so many amusing ways.
