Fighting With Your Ex? Seen The Goldfish Lately?

Sometimes it’s nice to take a pause from all the craziness and lack of common sense in the news today and just blog about something totally inane and ridiculous.

Like this woman in Pasadena, Texas who was so mad at her former common law husband that she fishnapped 7 goldfish that the couple had bought together. She took them  from his apartment, according to the police.

The man had reported them missing and when the police arrived at the woman’s home, they found 4 fried goldfish on a plate.

EEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW. Now, I am a big seafood lover and eat just about any fish under the sun. But maybe it’s like eating a pig or a cow but not eating a cat or a dog–a goldfish is a little too close to home, right?

Come on! It’s the staple pet of childhood! You get them at the carnival, not the fish market!

Well, simple math tells you that if they found 4 fried goldfish, the other 3 must have beem somewhere…right?

Yep. The bitter ex-wife had already eaten those.

What would make her so angry that she would fry and eat her ex’s goldfish??

He took away some jewelry that he had given her. And she wanted it BACK!

I don’t know what part of this story is the saddest. That this woman fried and ate goldfish or that these fish meant so much to the couple, especially the ex-husband.

PETA is probably ticked, but the police won’t charge her since it is considered a civil matter.

And just as I wrap up this blog, something else has occured to me.

Isn’t it a little odd that kids and adults alike eat GOLDFISH snacks?? I mean…why GOLDFISH?? Maybe cuz kids haven’t acquired a taste for salmon or tuna or shark?

Just wondering.

Fighting with your ex at the moment?

Go check on the fish. Just in case.
