I had to put the phone down and just stare at the wall for a few minutes while my brain processed the headline alone

There are some very strange people out there.

Right?! I can’t even figure out how THAT is what she chose to do. I understand grief makes us do funny things - but THAT?!

Some tribes eat their enemies. Perhaps she was having a primal memory moment.

ChardonnaysBeastlyCat · 05/10/2024 19:23

She what?

This is bizarre and my threshold for bizarre is usually set quite high.

toomuchcardboard · 05/10/2024 19:31

What, all of them?? An urn of ashes weighs a couple of kilogrammes.

feelingbadinadoormatway · 05/10/2024 19:33

Well I’m sure that taught him a lesson ?? 😵‍💫

Can you imagine if there was a spirit world/afterlife... what his reaction would be from beyond. I'm sort of thinking Patrick Swayze in Ghost meets Death Becomes Her type movie Shock

Apart from anything else there's about 1001 ways she could have sought revenge using the ashes rather than to consume them.

PickledMuffin · 05/10/2024 19:44

would that be considered cannibalism 🤔🫣🤪

I know Shock
Cat litter tray

Turn them into a diamond and wear it "only nice bit of jewellery he gave me"
Use the ashes to line the fireplace
Make an hour glass timer
Use as garden fertilizer then eat the plants that grow

She also mixed some with dog shit and binned it.

She was obviously struggling alot finding out a lot of bad stuff about him and couldn't confront him or get closure as he was dead

She was seriously unwell I think :(

Having said that, you couldn't prize that info out of me with a bottle of Jack Daniels and a crowbar. Never mind write a book about it

gamerchick · 05/10/2024 19:51

Aren't they really toxic though? I could think of other things to do than eating his ashes.

Attelina · 05/10/2024 19:51

I think she's absolutely disgusting.

Their poor son. He now has the shame of having a father that cheated multiple times on his mother and a mother who coolant care less about his feelings by making this public and eating his fathers ashes.

Absolutely monstrous thing to do to your child. No dignity or any thought and respect for their son.

I hope he isn't bullied about it. He's only 9 according to what I read.

I thought about that as well! Not only has she aired his father’s adult collection and dirty laundry, but also aired that she ate human remains. Also aired she fantasized about a high school girl at a high school play naked and blamed it on seeing too much porn!! Made money off the whole thing. The psychological damage of losing a parent young is one thing, then add this on top?!

Poor child

Autumnismyfavouritetimeofyear · 05/10/2024 20:14

If she really wanted revenge she should have spread them in the most un-beautiful places she could find - municipal car parks, roundabouts in suburbs, the kind of places people go to do pees against the walls.........

Ultimately the ashes are in very unglamorous place now.

XenoBitch · 05/10/2024 22:17

I wonder if ashes act like a natural wormer?

NetDesMamans1 · 05/10/2024 22:39

I'm not going to read the story, so I won't find out how TAF anyone can eat ashes. Did she mix them into her apple crumble topping?
