It puts the lotion in the basket. We've all got mad at our parents, but surely this is going a bit far? [via.]

  • Um... eeeeew. Life imitates Hollywood. (If this happened in the US, I'd predict an angry mob demanding we ban Silence of the Lambs.)
  • He was said to be wearing a strange suit or draped in a flag and shouting quotations from the Bible. "This man was arrested while he stood attempting to direct traffic," said Henry Hambeukers, a police spokesman. What? No tutu? No goat? No razorblade-and-finger necklace? Well, maybe be in a more innocent age the old "Bible-quoting, mother's-skin-wearing, traffic-directing" schtick could have been a noteworthy psychotic breakdown, but in our more cynical times it just doesn't cut the mustard. More effort next time, please.
  • muster, even.
  • Or not.
  • Maybe he didn't murder her? She could have died of natural causes, he then freaked out (cuz he's mental - living at home at 42 isn't usually a sign of mental stability) and figured wearing her skin keeps her with him. Hope he gets help.
  • living at home at 42 isn't usually a sign of mental stability *throws away Ipod, cool bag; cries*
  • *hugs quidnunc* There, there.
  • HEY MOM CHECK THIS OUT I GOT A HUG FROM A GIRL ON THE INTERNET!!! ;)
  • LOL! Behave yourself! *wonders if he notices his wallet is missing*
  • Women, eh? They takes yr money and then they breaks yr heart.
  • Well, I usually break the heart first and then take the money but this was a rush job. ;)
  • shades of ed gein, one of the very first psycho killers. my mom always said once his crimes hit the news the world was never the same. for the record, my mom slathers her skin with Vaseline every night, it's very nice and soft and would make a lovely cloak.
  • Ed Gein was a base for the original novel, Silence of the Lambs, actually. Art imititates life and back and forth from there on. Your momwas right, SideDish.
  • He was also the inspiration for The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Psycho, I hear.
  • Hey sidedish tell your mother I'm coming over! Tell her to make pot roast too.
  • mother will be so pleased, crackpot.
  • That's sick, SideDish. Thanks for that. ;) I have been telling "dead mom" jokes for years now... took my wife some time to get used to, but she understands now. It's easier to laugh than cry, and my mom gave me this sick sense of humor in the first place, so...
  • You Sick Mother Fucks.TM
  • caution live frogs, where's the mob calling for the banning of the bible? Didn't that violent book of lies and bullshit just cause yet another atrocity? Was it somehow Ozzy's fault? Did Salinger hypnotize this guy from beyond the grave? Can we blame video games? Brainwashing via comic books?
  • No, was me again. Sorry. Had a bit of fun with that one, I did.
  • Pete, after some thought, this deserves a place in the Giant Book O'Taglines. MonkeyFilter: You Sick Mother Fucks.TM
