Stay away from anyone who considers Freddie Krueger to be a personal hero.

"A deranged pair of women who killed an autistic teen for the thrill of it in their quest to become serial killers will spend the rest of their lives in prison, a judge said Wednesday.....

Lilley, a British immigrant working as a shelf-stacker at a supermarket in suburban Australia had a fascination with serial killers since childhood and regarded Freddy Krueger, of the horror franchise “Nightmare on Elm Street,” as a personal hero."

didn’t pay much attention to him until he started talking about Charlie Manson, saying that Manson was just misunderstood etc...

I stopped the car in half a second flat, gave some excuse that I forgot something I had to back for, so couldn’t take him any further, then took off in a cloud of dust.
