... OF THE WEEK

HOMICIDAL URGE ...

The fucker in my neighborhood who drives by with his stereo so loud and his bass so high that when we are in the back of the house furthest from the street with the television blaring we can still hear him -that guy needs to die. And he needs to die HARD.

I seriously don't know why he does this. Is he just trying to announce to a 10 block radius that a dumb ass dick weed is approaching? Does he think it is cool to make my wine glasses jump off the shelf and my pictures shake on the walls? Does he think that causing his ear drums to shatter will make him more of a man in his friends eyes? Does he think that the louder his music, the more we will distracted from his teeny tiny brain and his equally minuscule penis?

I know I sound like an old person - but seriously, if you were playing Neil Diamond that loud I'd be equally as pissed. Turn your fucking stereo down - I don't need to listen to your shit. No one thinks you are all that.

NEWS STORY ...

A 19-year-old Georgia teen shot and killed his mother when he "got bored" and started cleaning his AK-47 in the middle of the night while she was sleeping nearby. The gun "accidentally" went off and shot the woman in the upper body.

"To make a long story short, I shot my mother," he told a news station. "She told me to call 911 so that's what I did." She died a short-time later.

Wow ... his outpouring of emotion is touching, isn't it? Maybe she should have told him to not pack an assault rifle, instead. I'm just sayin'.

I have a hard time mustering up sympathy for either the teenager, or the mom, since she must have obviously known her boy had a gun, but seemed to have accepted it enough for him to feel comfortable cleaning it in her presence. And what the hell did he need an AK-47 for? Did the mother, at any time, say to him, "Son, maybe you need to get you a job, or go to school, so you don't get bored and play with an AK-47 and shoot me."

To me, the whole thing sounds outrageous. But sadly, there is a segment of society out there that this story doesn't seem outrageous to at all. Teenagers with AK-47s is typically normal to them. And that is the real tragedy.

SHOE ...

A friend of mine got these at work the other day, and they are STUNNING - even more so than in this picture. She normally doesn't like to attract attention, but admitted that when she's wearing these she gets a lot of it, and that's not all bad.

Of course, they are by my favorite shoe designer, Carlos Santana. Called "Casino" they come in pink, yellow and this fabulous blue stripe. They also come in a variety of other, more muted combinations, and a stunning black and white option as well.

Oh - and my friend is a heel novice, yet says these are pretty comfortable. I have several pair of Carlos heels, and he does know how to engineer a shoe.

Save for the shoes, you have a very homicidal blog today. Well actually, perhaps the shoes are 'to die for' as well?

I do agree on the whole gun thing. I hate them anyway.

The music? So glad I don't live in the city anymore. I could have happily murdered my neighbours quite a few times.

[witchypoo]

I was so tempted to click the fart button.
But I digress. No, I didn't even start. Oh, where was I?
Yes, mighty glad that my place is protected by 100 year old trees, and thus insulated from the street.
It's nicer in a frickin bubble than you might think.

Well, don't you notice how respectful of his mom this teenage boy is? He obeyed to her (last) request of calling 911! That's what America need, more children who obey their parents! And more respect!

On another note, the shoes are gorgeous in yellow.

[tigerlilly]

yeah.......doof doof music, as it's often termed here in Oz......(doof doof meaning the thumping of the fucking base).........it screams for the abuser to be splattered deaf by the abusee. It just should be law. That they must die, that is. I have never understood the appeal, but what do I know? I must have NO SENSE!!!

AK-47. i have no response to that. Because I am speechless, and yet can not imagine why, considering the current state of the world.

**shakes head in sad wonderment**

Fab shoes though, and I think that having a pair. I'm thinking pink although I have absolutely nothing to wear them with, and no place to wear it. SHIT!

[Ree]

Those shoes are gorgeous. And amazingly enough, they do look comfortable

[Qelqoth]

Anyone who pimps out their car with that kind of retarded shit deserves to have their head strapped to the base speaker while the amplifier is pushed over 180db.

"You like that shit now, motherfucker?" you yell, their ear drum bleeding heavily while their entire body vibrates from the noise. Then they explode, lol.

[Jackie J]

I owe you big time! Let me know...
Thanks...

[Daisy]

Stupid people, cute shoes...story of our lives.

[Kim]

I hate that thump crap too. What really cracks me up is when I see some of these cars and you just know that the stereo system is worth more than the vehicle.

[HeyJoe]

I injured my mother in a knife throwing incident. But I didn't KILL her. Oh, and I felt badly too as I recall.

[Sorina]

This is a very entertaining blog. Well-written and clever. You are now on my favorite list.

my neighbors daughter's boyfriend (got all that) plays his music so loud our whole little house shakes. one day i'm going to throw a brick through his window. huh. here i was all thinking about getting monte an ak 47 for his net birthday. go figure.

[melanie]

i have to agree. that booming base is environmental pollution, no matter whats coming out of it.

DUDE!!!!! AK-47? shot his mom by accident? are we sure about that? i am wondering..

i have to give up heels. they do nothing for my spurs. (heel spurs that is. :wink:)

[Sarcastic Mom]

I understand your homicidal rage. I get it with the ghetto blasters around here, and the woman who picks up her kid from the house across the street every afternoon, but is TOO DAMN LAZY too get out of her car and go to the door. She just pulls up and lays on her horn over and over again until they come out to the car.

I want to kill her. Slowly.
