"He was the only guy who was ever nice to me."

Explanation a woman gave for why she kept the dead body of a man in her house for what the police say was 18 months.
She kept the body clean and dressed and talked to it while watching NASCAR on television.
And she cashed his Social Security checks.

No worries--they were not romantically "linked."

When I read this a couple of days ago I asked my wife if she would keep me on the couch and watch TV with me if I die. She declined. I shouldn't have asked because I was a little deflated by her answer.

Clear case of welfare fraud – throw the book at her.

When they say it isn't about the money...it's about the money.

Always.

This woman is eerily similar to the woman in the Terry Gilliam film Tideland... it got bad reviews, but I liked it!

I have a number of disgusting questions.

The postscript is that she killed him. That'll teach him to be nice to her.

I bet she asked him how she should spend his SS check.

"Honey, do you have any objection to me buying those fabulous shoes I told you about?"

(Silence).

"Thanks honey, you're the best -- the only guy who's ever been nice to me. I'll go them and show when I get home."

Giving her his Social Security checks, dead or not, is one of those transcendant acts of chivalry.

Clearly, he would have wanted it this way.

Shame on you, anti-deadist bigot.

Palladian म्हणाले...

If you've has ever had the misfortune of seeing and smelling the effects of just a few days of room temperature on a dead mammalian body, this story should lead you to want to ask some unpleasant questions... bloating... purge fluid... lividity... larvae...

Palladian म्हणाले...

Maybe she had a really, really big Ronco food dehydrator...

She wasn't by chance named "Julia", was she?

Dead guys are always the nicest. They are patient and respectful listeners, they don't hog the remote, never leave their sock laying about, and are unerringly loyal - the perfect man.

Is that true? I thought he died of natural causes.

Chip Ahoy म्हणाले...

How'd he die? Mushrooms. Gotta bad batch of mushrooms. You were married before, right? Yeah. What happened there? Mushrooms. Was that your first husband? No. Who was the first? Some guy. This is starting to sound serious what happened to the first guy? Died. Don't tell me, mushrooms. No he didn't eat no poison mushrooms. So how he die? Beat to death. What? Wouldn't eat his mushrooms.

अनामित म्हणाले...

What a stiff.

ndspinelli म्हणाले...

I bet the "niceness" commenced after he died.

Jaske म्हणाले...

Once upon a time, disgusting questions where asked by a judge.
Verily, oh!
Property Fairy.

Need a photo. Let's see Chip animate this one.

Blue@9 म्हणाले...

WTF, does she live in a freezer? How did he not decompose?

ricpic म्हणाले...

In this vale of tears you need somebody to rely on. If that body happens to be cold...it's still better than nobody.

Eric म्हणाले...

Watching NASCAR? Disgusting.

Has anyone actually seen Meade lately?

He also never left the toilet seat up.

Rose म्हणाले...

How often did he vote?

"He was the only guy who was ever nice to me."

Because everyone else could tell she was a monster.

chickelit म्हणाले...

She kept the body clean and dressed and talked to it while watching NASCAR on television.

She lapped circles around him, pulled ahead easily, never got behind, and always blew through to the winner's circle.

garage mahal म्हणाले...

Wonder how long this guy was dead before the wife, you know, noticed.

jimbino म्हणाले...

It seems to me that Social Security benefits are paid by direct deposit in a bank account.

Nice story though.

A man who marries a series of five wives for 10 years each, starting at 22 will leave Social Security benefits to all of them when he dies at age 63.

And all of them, foreigners, will treat him oh so well.

A Corpse is a Corpse
Of Course Of Course
You Know You Can Talk to a Corpse Of Course
That is Of Course Because the Corpse
Is a Gift-Horse Who Dropped Dead

Go Right to the Source and Ask the Corpse
He'll Give You Some Fat Check$ That You'll Endorse
And With No Force, Without Remorse
You're Makin' Lots of Bread

Authorities Yakkity Yak and Snoop and Worry You Some Days
But That Rancid Corpse Will Never Speak, Just Sits There Rotting Away.

Get Warped With A Corpse, A Corpse, A Corpse
Just Talk to the Corpse 'Til the Law's Enforced
You've Never Heard of a Talking Corpse?

Well Listen to This:

"I am Sittin' Here Dead."

MaggotAtBroad&Wall म्हणाले...

Lots of women keep guys around solely for their checks. So she stretched it out several months longer after he died, what's the big deal?

Whatever you do, do not judge her. Do not shame her. Do not shun her. She knows that those of us who work and pay taxes will give her a check. She's only doing what liberalism has conditioned her to do. Which is to expect someone else to pay her freight. It's the American way.

Carnifex म्हणाले...

She's considering converting to Islam, where there's not such a stigma attached to necrophilia.

"This looks like a good place for a 'Stick Up'"

Uhhh, Chip would have to re-animate, and as good as he is...c'mon!

okay, just thought of a story for next cafe! Heh, heh, heh, he said with a Renfield kind of laugh.

Craig म्हणाले...

Common law should entitle her to survivor benefits.

I have a co-worker that I could easily see doing exactly the same thing. :-/

Men decide far more problems by hate, love, lust, rage, sorrow, joy, hope, fear, illusion, or some other inward emotion, than by reality, authority, any legal standard, judicial precedent, or statute.

LMAO! OMG, that's so wrong... :D

Plus, he listened.

I hope her lawyer pleads insanity. After all, we have all these women down here killing people, and their lawyers always go for insanity. This lady fits the bill better than Yates or McClain.
