Got a good chuckle out of this one this morning:

Marion County man killed over toilet paper

Moss Bluff, Florida - Marion County authorities say a man is charged with fatally beating his roommate with a sledgehammer and a claw hammer because there was no toilet tissue in the home.

The sheriff’s office says 56-year-old Franklin Crow was arrested Monday for the death of 58-year-old Kenneth Matthews.

Crow told investigators that the men were fighting over the weekend about the toilet tissue when Matthews pulled out a rifle.

According to an affidavit, Crow says he then began beating Matthews with the sledgehammer and claw hammer.
Authorities say Crow initially denied his involvement with the crime, but confessed when questioned.

Detectives say Matthews was beaten so badly he had to be identified through his fingerprints.

Crow is being held at the Marion County jail without bond.

Ok, first of all, by the time you reach your mid-to-late 50’s, aren’t you usually living on your own? I mean, who has a roommate at that point in your life unless you are in a nursing home?

Second of all, TOILET PAPER?? These are two grown men my Dad’s age fighting about TOILET PAPER?? Who pulls out a rifle when they go into the bathroom and there is no toilet paper? Use some kleenex. Use a towel. Heck, use your hand. And get pissed at your roommate about it if you have to. But seriously. I don’t think a rifle, sledgehammer and claw hammer were really necessary.

Did it solve anything anyway? I guess the dude is in jail now, so he’s got toilet paper. Hey, whatever works, man.
