Malicious arson doesn't get funnier than this, folks. 31-year-old Shemroy Williams from Taunton, Massachusetts was so angry with his ex-girlfriend back in March that he decided to set her house on fire.

When the fire wasn't spreading fast enough, he tried to accelerate it by dumping his bag of Cheetos into it. There's no word if they were Flamin' Hot Cheetos...

Anyway, the Cheetos didn't work as an accelerant and the fire department put the fire out while it was still pretty small. Shemroy was in court this week and he was sentenced to two-and-a-half years in prison for malicious destruction of property.
