This morning Tess and I talked about a man who tried to kill a spider with a lighter at a gas station near Detroit. He tired to light the spider on fire while pumping gas.

I'll say that one more time encase you missed it: He tired to light the spider on fire while pumping gas! 

Now, I am not going to sit here and claim to be the brightest man in the world — I have done my fair share of dumb things — but this is beyond stupidity! This is dangerous for everyone around him.

Now, when it was all said and done, and the flames were put out, the owner of the Mobil gas station in Center Line did not press charges, according to Fox News. The man, who said he is afraid of spiders, told authorities that he saw a spider on his gas tank and pulled out his lighter to get rid of it, Fox News reported.

This just blew my mind! This guy lights a gas pump and walks away? No. Sorry, this guy should receive some sort of punishment, so he can't "accidentally" harm anyone or any thing again.

What do you think? Let me know in the comments!
