Jennifer Melvin on dreamindemon.com

South Salt Lake, UT - Jennifer Lynn Melvin, 27, got very upset on Thursday morning.  She’d gotten up very early and made her husband a to-do list, detailing the things she wanted her man to get done that day.  Apparently Mr. Melvin, whose name has not been released, did not think Jennifer’s to-do list was relevant to his interests, and an altercation ensued.

By 6:00 a.m., police had been called to the couple’s South Salt Lake residence.  Physical marks were found on both parties, but Mr. Melvin had been stabbed in the upper torso with a steak knife.  Hard.  He was taken to a local hospital, where he was initially classified as being in “serious but stable” condition.  Mr. Melvin has now been released from the hospital, because the worst part about being stabbed is having a steak knife hanging out of your torso.  Once that’s removed and the damage sewn up, you can pretty much go home unless there’s an aorta or major organ involved.

Here’s what I want to know.  Why on earth would anyone be awake and writing to-do lists early enough that the stabbing is done by SIX IN THE MORNING?  I mean, I have often had to have my happy self to work by six, but I am certainly not awake enough to have household honey-do conferences before that time.  Were they up all night fighting?  Was this a list started the day before, and bedtime was simply intermission?

Whatever the case, this isn’t the first time police have been to the home for domestic disputes.  I KNOW, right?  Total shock.  But the police did say this was the “first time anyone got stabbed” at that address.  Good to know.

Jennifer Melvin was arrested on charges of aggravated domestic assault.  She appears to be out on bond now, so maybe she’ll come tell us what led up to the steak knife.  Was it dishes?  Laundry?  Was she just getting him back for a prior assault?  Impish minds wanna know. Police do say that they are “considering” charges against Mr. Melvin as well, so I could possibly be swayed on this one.  What do you think?

So Jaded said the stabby word in our forums.

    I have considered the steak knife treatment for the hubby not cleaning the spare bathroom. He and the kid are the only ones that use it and, let’s face it, no matter how much practice men have – they NEVER hit the toilet! That is enough to make my “Steak knife” crazy.

    OK, I know I shouldn’t laugh. I would be completely up-in-arms if the facts were such that 1) he was not her husband; or 2) he had been killed; or 3) it was over anything other than a honey-do-list; or 4) “she” had been a “he” and “he” had been a “she” (ues I know, sexist but whadda ya gonna do?), but . . . . . LMAO! I am actually going to forward this to MY husband as a warning to get of his butt and pick up around the house.

    Sadly,I totally understand how this could happen.
    Sometimes men can be lazy self centered pricks who cannot complete the simplest of tasks.
    Even if you are overwhelmed on the brink of insanity and they have nothing better to do they still can’t lift a finger to help.
    Preconceived notions that because women have a uterus they should be domestic slaves cleaning up piss of of toilet seats and picking up clothes off the floor for the rest of their days and they should grateful and eager to do it.
    Years of animosity piled up towards her husband and she finally snapped.
    He was probably laying on the couch watching t.v. and scratching his balls while she was running around cleaning up his messes.

    My ex husband was just like this…many a day I wanted to give him a chainsaw enema.

    Just my 2 cents

    Huh. Will be printing this one out and strategically placing it on the pile of my guy’s laundry that is sitting on the ottoman because he seems to have some aversion to actually removing it from the dryer when he pulls what he plans to wear that day out. ;-P

    The wife and I have gotten into some of the biggest arguments at 6am. Neither of us are morning people but for some stupid reason I have worked in the same career for the last 22 years that requires me to be up at 4:30 to 5am every day. Normally I’ll get them up shortly before I leave and neither of us does much talking, but that’s only after being married for 20 years.

    I could see her coming after me with a steak knife :)

    I do understand her rage as well. My husband and I were separated for 1 1/2 years (we’ve been married 16 inclusive of the separation) and it happened in large part because not only did he act like a lazy, entitled prick, but had truly no idea how horrible and worthless his lazy prickiness made me feel.

    To get back together we had to in therapy make a list of all that needed to be done and who would take responsibility for it. Now we’ve fallen away from it but I see him as being more well intentioned now and have no homicidal tendencies. ;-)

    Okay, I just read this verbatium to my husband, who for what ever reason did not think it was funny. He just asked “Did you find humor in the poor guy getting stabbed, honey”?
    I suppose my grin gave me away……..

    On a serious note..I am a volunteer at a local DV shelter….and group therapy program, after years ago, being a resident and attendee of both, after three years of intensive therapy…….I can pretty much quote the facts, face the facts and assist others facing situations.

    That said, clearly this is a dysfunctional couple. They need to stay away from each other. This is a no win situation. ( and while there were times in my own life that I would have loved to take a steak knife to a specific abuser, there is NO way).

    Not a knife, this woman did not stab this man over past abuse, no way. Most women learn early on that you DO not fight back, it only makes it worse…….this is the reality……

    Those women who go to such extremes generally use a gun….see, a women in a DV situation, that is horribly out of control, and who is facing sure death, will rely on the weapon of choice that promises he will not come back after her……..that he will not ever have the opportunity to return…….

    I just yelled to my husband, what you had written, (after previously reading the story to him)………

    He replied, “hold on honey, I am putting your laundry in the dryer…..”

    LMAO….

    Stabbing at 6 am? She may wish to cut back on the coffee. Then again, if she’s Mormon (Salt Lake?) she’s not supposed to be drinking coffee, anyway.

    I don’t think I’ve got the energy to get stabby at 6. Maybe by 9…

    let’s face it, no matter how much practice men have – they NEVER hit the toilet!

    Not true, I’m like a special forces sniper in the bathroom, but its more likely its cause I really hate pee, not because I’m neat. I grew up with an obsessively neat father and a very messy mother who delights in leaving papers and things about to annoy my father. I ended up average, no socks or trash on the floor but I might leave the junk mail on the coffee table for a few days. If I get married one day I will remeber this thread, it could save me from a steak knife, or a chain saw enema!

    I would so not have patience for this. Maybe it is just as well I have never married.

    Now, if only men could start thinking of housework as an important part of foreplay, much would be won. After all, if you are exhausted from cleaning and clearing and being treated like a drudge all day, you are certainly not going to feel sexy and up to it by the time you get to bed……

    OK, I’m a real bitch in the morning so I’m going to go easy on this chick. She must be bitchy too. Something is wrong with me to find this article worthy of snickering! ;-)

    The dumbass hubby probably gave his response in that typical “Yes Hunny” condescending way. Or maybe he did that mock “Yap Yap Yap” with his hand.

    GUYS! You don’t do that EVER…lol Especially at 6:00 am. If you want to make wifey happy, don’t say a word. Just take the hunny-do-list and say “K”. Nothing more, nothing less. You don’t even have to put the O in front of the K. That would risk saying too much. We truly aren’t soliciting a response. One syllable will suffice – so we know you heard us. If we wanted a response we would have asked you for sex. We don’t want grumbles, mumbles and/or moans either. OK? OK! And you will be steak knife free!

    That thing on the side of her face is a parasitic twin. It’s telling her what to do with it’s psychic mind control.

    I can totally see this woman’s evil “I’m gonna shank you fucker!” face.

    I would have gone the exlax muffin route myself. Nothing says fuck you like a nice case of the shits.

    Haa haa haa…gross!!! I really tried not to look at it, but MOLEY, MOLEY, MOLEY, MOLE!!!!!! Sorry a little Austin Powers humor ;)

    You know we wouldn’t need honey do lists, if men just had the incentive to think about what needs done and do it….It’s not like we enjoy cleaning the bathroom……

    I too have asked my husband to do things around the house. He simplys answers “in a minute”. Does anyone have an idea how long men minutes are? Well let me tell you. It’s about a decade long.

    Hmmmm where is my steak knife?

    Dear women who are defending this woman’s actions:

    1. Just because you are a bitch doesn’t mean that anyone else agrees with you.
    2. Bitching more does not entitle you to anything in particular except to become ugly and intolerable to everyone.
    3. Waking up at 6AM and dictating a to-do list, then stabbing your husband if he doesn’t do it is…well, it’s a crime. It’s called ‘attempted murder’, and you’ll earn the privilege of spending time with a large group of hormonally synchronized women in a concrete world where exactly nobody will give the smallest crap about your list.

    Think about that.
