INCREDIBLY, ALCOHOL MAY HAVE BEEN INVOLVED

Totally Understandable Canadian Birthday Stabbing Of The Day So Far

Barrie police Sgt. Dan Mafturack said the man asked the woman what she wanted for dinner by saying, "Do you want ham, potatoes and vegetables, or potatoes, vegetables and ham?"

The query apparently upset the woman, who then allegedly grabbed the knife and stabbed her spouse in the chest.

He obviously forgot to put the ham in a Tiffany's box. Some guys never learn.

"He was probably being sarcastic."
Ya think? And she had a sharp response for that.

Amateur. Next time use a machete. That'll learn him.

Aw. I love a good love story involving stabbings.

Posted by: Wench Lizzy | 10:30 AM on March 27, 2008

No! I would not like them with a mouse! I would not like them on a house!
*Stab*

Ah, takes me back to the good old days of TV game shows...

"So, do you want Door Number 1, Door Number 2, or Door Number -- AAAAAAAGGGGHHHH!"

Posted by: Steve Haller | 10:33 AM on March 27, 2008

Thank you, gals!!


*stuffs face with cake*

Posted by: Siouxie | 10:37 AM on March 27, 2008

It's not like he was offering her Kraft Dinner or baked beans or anything like that
Yeah... because then the stabbing would have been completely justified, alcohol involvement or not.

you can have Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam, Eggs and Spam, or Spam, Eggs, Spam, Spam, and Spam.

GMTA, Annie! Sheesh. Is this any way to be treated on your birthday by a smarta$$ husband?

I'd defend her for free. And he probably didn't give her a present either.

Posted by: Eleanor | 10:55 AM on March 27, 2008

had the same thought braniff - only without the eggs. i'm having spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, and spam. i love it.

Posted by: queensbee | 11:00 AM on March 27, 2008

"Thanks for my birthday dinner, honey. Now let me cut your meat for you."

Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | 11:03 AM on March 27, 2008

Dang it, Braniff77 took my line before I even got here...

Posted by: Kathybear | 11:04 AM on March 27, 2008

Sarcasm, it turns out, truly is the weapon of the weak.

Posted by: Cheesewiz | 11:13 AM on March 27, 2008

Cheesewiz, cut the ham, please.

Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | 11:28 AM on March 27, 2008

I don't like Spam! (which is made by Hormel in Minnesota)

Posted by: it's | 11:29 AM on March 27, 2008

And spam is the wee-pun of the week.

MKJ, maybe after foreclosure for a few folks.

Posted by: Texgal | 11:44 AM on March 27, 2008

Fist of all, leave me out of this. However, Canadian cuisine has been known to affect a lot of people like that, especially with winter being in its eighth month by now.

Posted by: SpamLamb | 11:44 AM on March 27, 2008

was the guy actually offering to make dinner?

that'll teach him!

Posted by: insomniac | 11:59 AM on March 27, 2008

This disproves, once and for all, the statement that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach.

Posted by: Hammond Rye | 12:14 PM on March 27, 2008

*Discreetly covers potatoes*

*Waves generous amount of flotsam @ Annie!!!*

Posted by: Hammond Rye | 12:17 PM on March 27, 2008

Yeah, Hammie. With a knife, you can get to the heart more directly.

Posted by: Bãrön vønKlýff | 12:22 PM on March 27, 2008

no Hammie, i've found that the way to a mans heart is between the third and fourth ribs with a very sharp implement.

Posted by: wickedwitch | 12:25 PM on March 27, 2008

*SNORK!* wicked!!

Posted by: Diva | 12:57 PM on March 27, 2008

*sees Hammie's impressive flotsam*

*WAVES!!!*

Posted by: Siouxie | 12:59 PM on March 27, 2008

Hammie - you call that a generous amount of flotsam? I'm with wickedwitch - we're holding out for large wads of cash.

Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | 12:59 PM on March 27, 2008

(shhhhhhhh, Annie...I'm trying to make him feel better)

Posted by: Siouxie | 01:05 PM on March 27, 2008

*Waves birthday cake @ Hammie!!!*

Posted by: Diva | 01:08 PM on March 27, 2008

Thanks, Siouxie!


Waitaminnit...

"Kraft dinner"?? *reminisces fondly about the Barenaked Ladies, a favorite band*

Posted by: Guin | 07:47 PM on March 27, 2008

Guin--I thought the same thing! We'll just eat more of it.
