#2: "It was just a flesh wound..."

It would be even funnier if the perp's whole head had been lopped off. Still, it was a good job for an 11 year old. Better luck next time!

I agree but Im not sure its worse than some of the trends that misuse real names and words inappropriately or in an “innovative” way.

“Oh! Hey! I want you to meet our new daughter. Here she is, Charles Lamppost Elggumsttub Finklediener-Rodriguiz. We couldnt help ourselves, its just so cute!”

Woo, ah ya...that’s somethin...ummm...ya.

I am thinking that the 11 year old was at home alone, parent(s) can’t afford to put him in summer Kid’s Club. I hope not.

My sweet grandson is almost 11, just finished 4th grade. If he were left alone at home and a thug broke in, I think my grandson would have been in real trouble.

Baby’s mom wanted something that sounded “French” or Ancient Greek!

I’m thinking it’s French (Canadian, maybe?)

“Does that help when he’s doing home-invasion crimes?

Yeah, it will hold a screen door open, but he has to stay way clear of any Velcro!

“Yes, I was just going to ask, what on earth is a Jataveon? It sounds like a tropical disease.”

Or his mother watched Fox News endless nightly drug commercials! But the disease angle is a good one too! There's the “little twin girls,” Syphilis and Gonorrhea.

Wouldn’t it have been spelling justice if Jataveon died because it took too long to spell his names before he could be admitted to treatment?

No wonder the punk is a criminal. His parents hated him and gave him that name to make sure he knew it.

“Gee Officer Krumsky. I’m depraved because I’m deprived”.

#22. He looks more like a Dixie Cup with the bottom knocked out.

“Swing away”!

#9. RE his hair and “does that help when he’s doing home-invasion crimes”?

Well, yes, if he head-butts the door to get in.

As the late comedian Phil Foster would say, “That’s what I like about the South”.

I used to worry about my boys all the time when they were that age. Now that they're grown, I still worry.

Maybe this 11yo boy was always a sweet, shy boy, too.

Until the day this guy broke in and tried to take his PlayStation. lol

[It is an African American name]

Does it roughly translate to “lousy punk thief with bad hair”?
