Woman mashed by mashed potatoes, boyfriend charged with battery
South Floridians will turn anything into a weapon, even comfort food.
A Port St. Lucie man found himself behind bars after he tossed a bowl of mashed potatoes at his girlfriend during an argument last week, police said.
Darren J. Baker faces domestic battery charges after the tater tussle that left his girlfriend with bruises and swelling on her face and mashed potatoes in her hair. The victim claimed she was making dinner when she got into an argument with Baker after she didn't take him to a recycling center, according to an arrest report obtained by WPTV. She said that's when he picked up the pot of potatoes and threw them at her.
Police found the woman bruised and swollen, but she refused treatment. Not only did they find what appeared to be mashed potatoes in her hair, but they also found it splattered on the wall and floor.
Baker denied throwing the spuds and said he had no idea why his girlfriend called 911, police said.
Dare to Be Stupid

...Yes. Why don’t you dare to be stupid.
It’s so easy, so easy to do.
We’re all waiting for you.
Burn your candle at both ends.
Look a gift horse in the mouth.
Mashed potatoes can be your friends.
You can be a coffee achiever.
You can sit around the house
And watch “Leave It To Beaver.”
The future’s up to you.
So what you gonna do?
Dare to be stupid.
Dare to be stupid.
And next week?
Will it be sweet potatoes in her hair?
potato tossing ping
An eye for an eye.
Would he throw the recycling bin at her if they got into an argument after she didn't make him dinner?
Btw, if she hasn't split from this creep and left no forwarding address, they can stop calling her "the victim" and start calling her "the idiot."
"I'm a zit, get it?"
Remember children. When having food fights, be sure not to throw the tableware too.
he wass mashed
See? See? She should have recycled him.
A clear case of "Green Rage."
I figure this isn’t the first time. It was no accident she made mashed potatoes rather than oysters or shish kabob. She was making things less painful to have thrown at you.
LOL! Excellent points.

Nothing says I love you like .....
