Poor Table Manners Lead to Stabbings
WORCESTER, Mass. -- A man was charged with stabbing two relatives after they allegedly criticized his table manners during Thanksgiving dinner.

Police said the fight broke out Thursday when Gonzalo Ocasio, 49, and his 18-year-old son, Gonzalo Jr., reprimanded Frank Palacious for picking at the turkey with his fingers, instead of slicing off pieces with a knife.

Palacious, 24, described by police only as an uncle, allegedly responded by stabbing them with a carving knife.

5. Poor Table Manners Indeed
Stabbing relatives should ALWAYS be performed with a steak knife - NOT the carving knife. Doesn't he know anything about place setting etiquette?
