Last week we talked about the 15-year-old girl who stabbed two freshmen girls at Snohomish High School.
An unnamed 15-year-old decided she wanted to go to school last week, armed with two knives including an 8 inch butcher knife with the intention of stabbing someone who was “at the wrong place at the wrong time”.
Luckily the 14-year victim, who was in critical condition after being stabbed 20 times, is said to be ok.
Now I’ve read a lot of news stories that have come out saying that the 15-year-old has a history of mental illness. According to one report, she has been suspended from school before after she reportedly became “obsessed” with two other girls, refusing to “let them have other friends,” and threatening to kill the boyfriend of one.
Does it take an outsider to say what really a big issue here is?
I’ve lived here for 12 years and I’ve lived in different areas of the country and I know the weather here has an adverse affect on the people. We have more suicide per capita, more use of heroin and meth, and more use of prescription drugs for depression here.
So when are we going to realize that as soon as a child experiences or shows signs of dangerous behavior, we have to keep them monitored? Seriously, how does someone let a girl like this loose in the school?
I hope that the parents of the two stabbing victims sue the government so that our stupid governor can start implanting programs to make sure things like this never happen again at a place we have to send our kids to.
We really need to come to grips with the fact that people in Western Washington should be in therapy and the only people who argue with me on this are people who self medicate and/or are out of their minds. People just don’t want to believe that they should be talking to someone when studies have shown that this area messes with them due to the lack of sun.
This 15-year-old girl should get a minimum of 20 years in an institution where she gets therapeutic help.
I’m tired of this; some poor parents have to deal with this horrific situation just because we don’t want to face the facts that this weather makes people crazy.
How many more kids have to get stabbed because people here are too proud to face the facts?
Halloween always reminds me of the funniest moment in TV history…when Mike Tyson and Bobby Brown did the Monster Mash on Jimmy Kinmmel Live! a few years ago.
Today is Halloween, so many kids will be out…you may get tired of kids yelling “Trick-or-treat!”, but it could get worse . . . Here are Mono-Nick’s Top 3 Things You Don’t Want to Hear From a Trick-or-Treater.
–Before I step foot on your property, I’m required by the state to disclose a couple things about my past.
–Mind if I use the candle in your pumpkin to light my crack pipe?
And the number one thing you don’t want to hear from a Trick-or-Treater.
–That’s my mom behind me on the sidewalk. She said she used to know you and to tell you, “I’m yours.”
According to a new survey sponsored by Blockbuster, costumes inspired by pop culture are almost 1,000% more popular this year than politically-inspired costumes. They found that one in four Americans who are going to dress up will be wearing a movie or TV-themed costume. The survey also found that 70% of adults plan to watch a scary movie at some point around Halloween. 29% will watch at least five.
Based on this…what is your favorite scary movie? Or…what did you dress up as for Halloween? Here are the texts:
I am dressing up as Lara Croft at work today. Call me a nerd but I guess it helps that I play video games.
Dead silence scares the hell out of me! I hate movies that go quiet and i hate dummies more. I’m going as an orange crayon
Melissa from Bremerton: I was a real housewife of new jersey. Proper thought I was dressed as a gold digging whore… Close enough!
My wife & I dressed as Gomez & Morticia Addams! We won best couple’s costume at the bar we went to.
For a party I was charlie sheen and my girlfriend was my beat up hooker black eye blacked out teeth and baby powder all over her face for coke
I dressed up as Bob Ross. The hippie painter, everyone loved it, I had the easle and paint brush saying in that soft voice, lets paint some happy trees
mini skirt and bikini top…. i was a bikini barista.
Movie would be The Strangers and I’m dressing as a garbage man Red the chicken man
Was going to go as Lucy but Steve kept trying to get me to eat peanut butter on some stick…

Hey its Laura from Bothell! One movie I always watch for halloween is hocus pocus! Its not scary but how can someone not watch it for halloween!
Earnest scared stupid!!
Here’s a real heart warming Halloween story…OK, maybe not…but this is freaky as all hell:
A 17-year-old girl working at a haunted house is in critical condition after accidentally HANGING herself last Thursday. It was at a place called Creepyworld in Fenton, Missouri. She’d only been working there for two days, and was scaring guests in what was supposed to be the haunted house’s master bathroom. There was a bathtub with a noose hanging above it. Police aren’t sure what happened, but they think she climbed onto the bathtub and put her head through the noose, to make people think she’d hanged herself. Then they think she slipped, and ended up hanging herself for real. Customers were going through the haunted house at the time, but no one reported that there was a hanging victim in one of the rooms. A co-worker found her hanging unconscious. Now she’s in critical condition. Yikes!!! I can’t fault the people going through…I’ve been through a few haunted places, and the people that are the actors really do a good job selling what they are doing.
So BJ and I were in Dallas, and it was a great time! We were there for a radio convention, and while there we went to a Dallas Stars game, as the timing was perfect since they played my favorite team…The New Jersey Devils. Sadly the Devils lost. While at the hotel, every night we ended up at the bar in the hotel, and every night there were real life hookers in the bar…I’m not kidding! Granted, I didn’t ask them if they were “Ladies Of the Evening”, but when you show up to the bar alone…wearing a mini-skirt that goes maybe 2 inches down from the “vag”, and have super fake long nails….and gigantic high heels….I’m guessing “whore”! I learned a valuable lesson…my enthusiasm about prostitutes in the bar did not translate well when I called my wife later that night. Call me nuts, but she didn’t see the novelty when I called and said “Hun…there are whores in hotel bar…how cool is that?” Her response was great: “Um, why is that cool?” Call me immature, I just found it fascinating that they were there…it was interesting though, BJ & I were wondering why they weren’t booted from the hotel, but we observed how they operated…they didn’t approach a single person, and sat there, playing on their phone, waiting for someone to approach them. I never saw anyone go up to them, except for one radio chick that went up to them to compliment one of the hookers on her choice of shoes…that was rather entertaining.
On the way home from Dallas, the guy next to me was flying for the first time in his life…he was from Dallas but his sister moved to Seattle 2 years ago, so he was visiting her for the first time. He is 34 years old! Wow…I thought that was crazy that he never flew until yesterday. Based on this…what ordinary experience have you never done…or what is something that you recently did for the first time that is surprising to people when they find out? Here are some texts we got:
Im 27, grew up in the country and have never rode any type of motorcycle
i finally went too disneyland last year when i was 21 – from adakin
Dan in everett….im actually doing 2 things that most people have done already. Going to Vegas for the first time and getting my first tattoo in December
I’m 30 and financed a truck, I’ve never financed ANYTHING in my life
I’m 21 and have never left washington state let alone get on a airplane!! Rachel G from Renton
Im 27 and ive never gone sking or snowboarding
I am 33 and will be going to my first concert this sunday Richard B. Riley
Finally gave in and got facebook.
I’m 27 and never driven a manual car
I’m 22 and hadn’t ate a twinkie until about a year ago and i could of gone my whole life without and been happy -from tali
For some reason people are REALLY surprised when I tell then I’m 30 years old and have NEVER tried a drug in my life, never smoked a cigarette!!! I thinkthe surprise factor comes from the stereotypes associated with the tattoos and piercings I have.
Oo so.. Gave up willing to change tired..
I am 32 and i had gummi bears for the first time yesterday. those little drops of goodness are awesome! jon from puyallup.
At 29 I have never been in a fist fight. Just never had the luck I guess…
Im 21 and never been 2 a seahalks game
Today’s Video Blog features the Rev & Hot Kyle showing off their Halloween costumes…plus we check out what some celebs dressed up as over the weekend.
The folks at E-Poll surveyed 1100 people to rank celebrities on their level of creepiness. Creepiness is completely subjective, of course. All of us sense creepiness in different ways, as E- Poll’s list clearly demonstrates. For example, you’ll find Marilyn Manson on the list, and even though his version of creepy is manufactured shlock, I think we all get why he’s on the list… sort of. On the other hand, Casey Anthony and Woody Allen are also on the list, for entirely different reasons. What shocked me were the people who DIDN’T make the list. How about Doug Hutchison? He’s the 51- year- old actor who married Ocean Shore’s own 17- year- old Courtney Stoddard. Take a look at their wedding photo. Yea bitches, creepy. He’s ALWAYS been creepy, but his marriage confirmed my suspicions. How about Mr. Rogers? That guy gave me the willies as a kid, freaked me out as an adult and even though he’s dead, I still think Mr. Rogers is the creepiest thing going. That’s just me, but today we wanted to know what you think: EITHER SOMEONE YOU KNOW OR A CELEBRITY, WHO CREEPS YOU OUT THE MOST AND WHY?
I won’t go through all of the different answers we got today as some of them were just way too involved, but we heard a few alarming tales today. One in particular ended with a woman’s mother shooting and killing her creepy boyfriend, while another involved a woman who got the heebie- jeebies from a dude who was later arrested for murder. They say to always follow your gut, and in a lot of the stories, people’s guts were right.
What’s kinda strange though is something that Miles read recently in some book from the FBI about serial killers. When you watch a movie or a TV show, serial killers always come off as serial killerish; Hannibal Lechter, Buffalo Bob, Anthony Perkins in ‘Psycho’, etc, but according to the FBI, the one uniting factor of all of them is that they didn’t SEEM creepy. All of them were described as ‘nice’ or the ‘pillar of the community’ or ‘church going’ or whatever. So chances are, the nicest person you know eats people in the form of chili. By contrast, they say that most CEO’s have a common denominator… they’re LITERALLY psychopaths. Go figure.
I’ll leave you with that.
Enjoy your weekend, bitches.
Until Monday, do what you do best and STAY BEAUTIFUL!”
Is Sammy drunk or high? Maybe he jast has a case of the Gene Simmons’s?
SAMMY HAGAR: Obviously Drank Too Much Tequila
Has Sammy Hagar gone mad? He’s says he’d like to reunite the original Guns n’ Roses and manage them.
“The amount of money they could make if they got it all back together, made a great record and toured the world would probably be as much as The Rolling Stones [get]… I’d be their manager and make sure they got the right deal from all the promoters. They could be the biggest band in the world if they wanted to.”
Hagar knows a thing or two about dysfunctional bands, having been part of Van Halen, who he says he can’t work with unless Eddie Van Halen changes. VH and GNR do have something in common — Irving Azoff manages Van Halen and also managed the latest Guns lineup.
Jeanette Leach is a British woman who has been known MOST of her life as “Jen Big Boobs”… probably because of her 32 JJ bra size. Yes, you read that right, DOUBLE J!!! After years of dealing with her enormous ‘dirty pillows’, Jen Big Boobs decided that she wanted to do something about it; she would get a breast reduction. One problem; her husband won’t let her get a reduction. I think we all know why, and he even says, “ I don’t mind admitting that I adore Jen’s boobs”… well no sh*t, man! Anyway, that’s how it goes when you’re in a relationship; you compromise on most things (guys) but every- once- in- a while you put your foot down and resoundingly say ‘no’, this will not happen. We wanted to know: WHAT DO YOU WANT THE MOST THAT YOUR SIGNIFICANT OTHER WON’T LET YOU HAVE?
Peace and quiet… that’s a given, my man. Peace and quiet is a thing of the past, except when you sleep, and even then…
Cigarettes… not sure if he’d quit smoking and she doesn’t want him to start again, if he doesn’t smoke and she doesn’t want him to start or he smokes, she doesn’t know it and he’s hiding it
He wants to be a helicopter pilot and she doesn’t want him to be… not an answer we expected
She doesn’t want him to own a hand gun… but then, how will he shoot her?
A dog… not that he can’t get a dog, it’s that he wants a dog the size of, oh, say, A DOG, while she wants one of those teeny- tiny rodents that are oh- so fashionable now
Wants to have a threesome but his wife won’t let him… bitch!
A “slayer”, which he described as the F-22 Raptor of Espresso machines… it should be noted that the cheapest one is $1000
Her ex wouldn’t let her have sex toys… why the f**k not? Are you kidding? F**king prude
Back piercings… she wants to get two ‘diamond studs’ on her back but her boyfriend doesn’t want her to… thing is, if it’s gonna make her more confident and sexual, the guy will be the person who benefits! What the hell is he thinking?
She wants a Harley, husband won’t let her… husband rides a Yamaha scooter… just sayin’
A divorce… yea, that’s a problem
OK bitches, I’m not feeling my best, and before you make the assumption, no, I am NOT hung over, just not feeling great. Hang overs are better… and easier to deal with.
Until tomorrow, if it touches cotton, change your pants and STAY BEAUTIFUL!”
“Sugar- free”, “organic”, “low fat” and now “artisan”… these are some of the buzzwords advertisers use to get us to buy their foods. However ‘artisan’, unlike the other buzzwords, has no particular definition, therefore there are no specific requirements to call something ‘artisan’. That might explain why in the last 5 years 800 products have released ‘artisan’ versions. 200 products this year alone… and the year isn’t over yet. Maybe it motivates you to try a new product, maybe it doesn’t. “Limited time” is another strong sales pitch. Case- in- point, the McRibb is back at McDonald’s, and even though they’re really not very good at all, I still feel compelled to get one before the promotion is over. Then there’s KFC who, 5 years ago, released their so- called Famous Bowls… take everything on the menu, dump it in a bowl, cover it in mash potatoes and * presto *, you have a Famous Bowl. Initially I said ‘no thanks’, but they’ve upped the ante by adding bacon. Now I’m saying, ‘maybe’. It’s all about advertising. Speaking of advertising, 36 religious leaders took out a full page ad in yesterday’s New York Times calling on Village Voice Media to stop accepting adult ads on its classified advertising website. Village Voice Media, by the way, owns our very own Seattle Weekly, which has all those sweet ads in the back. I won’t lie, I LOVE flipping through those sex ads because I like the pictures, but I’ve never felt compelled to want to call any of the services. Advertising is like that; even if you like the ad, you might not spend any money on the product. Today we wanted to know: WHAT ADVERTISING WORKED ON YOU AND WAS IT WORTH THE HYPE?
Electronic cigarettes… started smoking at the ripe old age of 15 (a pack a day) and liked them so much that he now sells them.
Ford got him with their 0 interest loan and no money down campaign… says it’s the best car he’s ever owned
Got suckered in by the Little Ceaser’s ‘pizza! pizza!” guy… says the %$ pizzas are totally worth it… meaning they’re totally worth 5$
Is a sucker for personal hygiene product that uses “manly” colors and says “for men”… agrees that it doesn’t really matter, but you feel better saying “I use Dove for men”, as opposed to saying “I use Dove”
We sold him on Men’s Room Original Red… says it was worth it
Is a sucker for any kind of milk that doesn’t come from a cow, i.e. soy milk, almond milk, coconut milk, etc. I should probably look into that being that I fart like a thunder storm when I drink milk
Saw the trailer for the movie ‘The Village’ (another M. Night Shamylan turd) and thought it looked awesome… and the TRAILER did look awesome… unfortunately, the movie sucked the fat one
Subway’s $5 foot long campaign… already liked the subs, but $5 makes it a lot better
Thanks to Ted, this guy is also an Andro- Penis fan
Frank’s Red Hot… thanks to its latest advertising campaign, he now, quite literally, puts that sh*t on everything
Ab- Flex… bought one from a TV ad and it sucks… in other words, he’s still flabby and out of shape
Keeps getting suckered into bands’ “farewell tours”, only to discover that the band plans on touring for the next 15 years
The Miracle Blade 3 Cooking Knives… advertised as being able to cut through anything (within reason) so he bought them… it’s not that they weren’t as good as advertised, it’s just that he doesn’t cook and had no need for them
HALLOWEEN
If you’re like most people, when you think Halloween, you think about how to properly dispose of all the chopped up hookers in your storage unit and how to dispose of the evidence without cueing the authorities to your guilt. That’s MOST people. Some people think of pumpkins. If you’re one of those weirdoes who thinks about pumpkins, here’s a Men’s Room pumpkin for your enjoyment. Thanks to Darren on Fox Island.
We all love to debate songs till were blue in the face around here. But is Time magazine the authority on this?
