Your Mama is a Big Fat Liar

Teaching "journaling to serial killers" may not have happened exactly how it was told.

My mother's most famous student -- Jeffrey Dahmer, the gay cannibal.

She taught high school for about 25 years in New York, New Jersey and mostly in Bath, Ohio (outside Akron). In the 70's and 80's, she was teaching 9th grade at Revere Junior High (nicknamed Reefer Junior High. For you douchebag millennials, reefer was 80's slang for "marijuana cigarettes").

In the late 90's when Dahmer was caught killing and eating men and boys in Milwaukee, it came out that he had gone to "Reefer Junior High."

Dahmer when he was at Reefer Junior High....

At first, my mother didn't remember Dahmer. Over the months, as the news stories grew more detailed and tortured, her "memory" got better.

She's Irish, and like her father and me, we can take one small detail and turn it into a fantastical story (with leprechauns and shit) -- especially after a few drinks or in front of 3 or more people.

My grandfather used that skill to sell life insurance during the depression. I've only turned it into this Bullshit blog. My mother used the "Irish power" to tell Dahmer (and other) stories.

Eventually, she "knew" he was quiet, didn't mix with kids, tortured animals and kept a detailed journal. She claimed to have taught him how to outline and keep his thoughts "organized." Good skills for serial killing.

Stop Talking Shit about My Mama

The wife could only take this for so long. We were at a big dinner with my in-laws (about a dozen Savages) and no one from my family.

The wife was telling her own tale of how my mother "exaggerates."

"The Dahmer story kept getting bigger and bigger," the wife giggled. "She practically predicted he would be a killer."
