Change Your Socks—Or I’ll Kill You
This story probably belongs in the Onion, or the Smoking Gun, but we couldn’t refuse. It’s too incredible not to post.
In Houston last week, a drunken argument over a man’s smelly feet turned into murder as one of the guys stabbed his roommate to death.
William Antonio Serrano, 22, and the other man were drinking last Saturday night when the victim said to Serrano, “Hey, your feet smell.”
After getting no response, Serrano grabbed a knife and stabbed his roommate several times, police said.
According to the AP, “The two men shared a small apartment bedroom they subleased from a married couple. The wife was outside with her newborn baby when she looked inside the window to see one of the men with two knives in his hands.”
“By the time she got inside, he was on top of the other man,” police said.

Just in time for Halloween too.
Trick or treat, smell my feet.
Maybe Serrano thought that little poem ended with, “turn me into minced meat.” It could’ve happened.

I am confused, is Serrano the one with the stinky feet?

That just plain stinks.

Just goes to prove that immaturity and alcohol don’t mix.

I don’t know, that might be justifiable homicide. Smelly feet……stink.

Doesn’t the bible say something about the punishment for smelly feet being swift and severe? He had fair warning.

I’ve known a few people that needed to die because of hygiene, but never would have done it myself.

His feet must have really stunk up the place. The killer went after him with two knives.

And to think a couple of Odor Eaters might have saved a life…sniff sniff.

Luckily no one else was hurt, like the mother with a newborn baby.
Am I getting this right? Serrano is the one with bad feet and also the killer.

Serrano had the stinky feet and was the killer.
Here is a link to an article that names the vicitm and the killer.

I agree, it is fortunate the mother and the baby were unharmed. I thought it was very brave or very foolish for her to run into a room where a man stabbing another man.

Which one? Stinky or Stabby?

I used to know someone who’s feet smelt so bad he was nicknamed “dances with skunks”.

Damn. He could have turned that hostility into cash.
