Mom, Jahmir's poking me!
by Greg at 2:18 PM
A 13-year-old Philadelphia boy has been arrested for allegedly fatally stabbing his 16-year-old brother because the older boy would not let his little brother have a turn with a video game.
This just goes back to what I've always said about little brothers. Can't live with em.... Ya. Can't live with 'em.
I seem to remember this story (although it didn't get published) from 1987 or so:
A 10-year-old boy kicked his 8-year-old brother in the bob-a-lones after the younger brother wouldn't stop dancing in front of the TV while the older brother tried to watch. The younger brother then had bruised bob-a-lones for like a week. It's quite obvious that in this instance, the punishment did not fit the crime and if the older brother is not careful, the younger brother quite possibly could still be plotting his revenge 20 years later.
Do you remember that story?
As an older sibling to a brother about two years younger, my sympathy always goes to the eldest.
Dancing in front of the tv is totally unacceptable and you, I mean that 8-year-old boy deserved a shot in the cajones.
My method of younger brother torture consisted of repeatedly calling him "loony, loony, loony" a la Stand By Me.
Your "loony loony loony" line made me spit out my water all over my screen. Well done.
I, I mean that 8-year-old boy, did not deserve the shot in the cajones though. Think about it; bruised cajones. I mean c'mon.
