The Chattering Crow: Revenge

Revenge

A man in Poland broke up with his girlfriend, who was a dentist. (It sounds like I'm starting a joke, but this was actually in the news this week). Then he got a toothache and went to his ex-girlfriend to get it fixed. She put him under anesthesia (lots of it) and pulled out all of his teeth.

He was upset.

She's getting three years in jail.

There's a part of me that suspects it was worth it.

I can't tell you how many times I have had an argument about Lorena Bobbit with my husband.

This reminds me of the urban myth about willie nelson's wife sewing him up in sheets and beating him with a frying pan. Ah revenge. Sweetness in the belly.

All I can say is that he really should have considered getting himself a new dentist after they broke up.
