Was that frying pan registered, and did she have a permit to carry it?

Getting a blow to the head is a serious matter. I nearly died 2 years ago from such an injury. I hope she frys too, poor fellow.

A man is reading his newspaper. His wife comes to him. She has a frying pan. She hits him on the head with the frying pan.
He asks, “Why did you hit me?”
“I saw a paper in your trousers. There was a name ‘Betty Sue’ on the paper.”
He says, “‘Betty Sue’ is the name of the horse which I want to buy.”
The wife says nothing.
Three days later, the man is reading his newspaper. She comes to him. She hits him very hard with a frying pan again.
He asks, “Why did you hit me again?”
She answers, “Your horse called.”

No Norman,
I am loving all of these Cardigan posts that are highlighting murders with stuff other than guns.
I’m sure we can find more than 12 a day, each and every day, which is the same number killed in Aurora.
People kill people, not guns.

“And on the floor of the Senate, Senator Schumer today called for stricter frying pan controls. ‘There’s no need for the average housewife to possess an assault skillet.’, he said.”

I don’t quite believe this story. Is this woman Thor’s sister? Did the victims’s cranial plates just not fuse together when he was a baby? Did she weld a spike onto the bottom of the pan? Was this guy about 10 seconds away from having a stroke?
How the fuck can you kill a man with a frying pan, especially if you’re a woman?

Another case of real life imitating art. There was an episode of “Dead like me” that had a woman bashing her boring hubby over the head with a cast iron skillet, dropping him like a steer….

Fur – a couple of days ago there was a story of man who hit his wife in the head with a can of peas because she wouldn’t subscribe to some cable channels while he was in bed recuperating from an illness. She had a previous injury to the head and the can of peas did her in. Well, he died a few weeks later, he choked on a piece of chicken.

Remember guys, respect The Unwritten Code here.

It takes allot of skillet

And if the guy tried to slam/slap/ the pan away from her, and it bumped into her face, he would be facing battery charges.

When the press questioned her about the murder she said they could read about it in her book, if they don’t pan it.

Remember the Hitchcock episode when the wife hit and killed the husband with the frozen leg of lamb? She then put the lamb in the oven and called the police.
The detectives agreed with the nice little old lady that the husband died from a fall. They were nice gentlemen so she invited them to diner. And they eat the leg of lamb. Hillarious. They ate the evidence.

My mother-in-law had a neighbor who spent about ten yrs in prison for beating his younger brother – also an adult – so badly on the head that he was in a coma for over a month. The young man was very intelligent before he got hurt. Now he has the intellect of a six year old and has to live in a nursing home.
So, yes, head injuries are not fun to deal with.

I cook with an iron skillet and don’t think it would take more that a few good swings to swell the brain. They are heavy. But who stands there and waits for a second strike?
