Slog - Comments on Was It Revenge for the Nickname? http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/12/was_it_revenge_for_the_nickname This troubling item comes to us courtesy of News Channel 7--FIRST in South Carolina to broadcast in high definition. A Spartanburg mother is accused of stabbing her son several times Christmas morning, but her son is the person facing charges. City police say it appears the mother, 45-year-old Tammy Jones, stabbed her son because he urinated on her while she slept in her bed. 21-year-old Michael Anthony Carson, nicknamed Pooh Bear, is charged with aggravated assault and battery. Police arrested him at his mother's home on Wednesday. City police say Jones stabbed her son six times with a butcher knife....

Fortunately, around here in the most highly literate Pacific Northwest, we never see crimes emanating from trailer trash like a Christmas Eve killing of 6 over money including shooting 3 and 6 year old witnesses and getting another witness while she's trying to dial 911.

Those dumb southerners. Ha, ha. Probably Pooh Bear was stuffed with Hoppin' John and pig jowls.

Cornball "Mama, you done stabbed me" has the capacity to be the "Stellaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!" of the 21st Century.

Its plaintive wail of simple sentiment, its sickening sense of morbid realization, its sad cry to the progenitor...all combine to manifest a deeply impactful meme.

Mama. Please. Put down that knife...

I will say this, Spartanburg is a fucked up part of the state. They are the most bible thumping, gun toating, homophoebic, Republican part of SC that I refuse to step foot in. In 1997, there was a city ordanance passed to allow people to be fired just for being gay. I grew up on the coast in Charleston. To me, Spartanburg is just backwards as fuck and will never change.

Remember Ms. teen SC that couldn't fucking talk shit about geography? Well she's from that area. I rest my case. Oh btw, I'm sure most of the people there are supporting Fuckabee for president. Scary eh?

"mama you done stab me" is the quote of the week. sounds like something that was said on Hee Haw.

Actually, it sounds like one of those country western songs...

I can hear it now, regretfully...

"Why lord you done hate me?

beer you done gone dry,
mama you done stabbed me...
just 'cause I done gone pee"

I wasn't thinking they were sleeping together, like junior crawling into bed with momma 'cause he had bad dreams and he wet the bed.

I thought he was a kinky mo-fo who went in his mom's room and gave her a golden shower while she slept. I mean, he's a SERIOUSLY KINKY mo-fo, and maybe even a literal mo-fo.
