Mom turns kid’s Xbox off, gets taco thrown in face

Recommended Videos

This is the best story you’ll read all day, guaranteed. A young man from Deltona is currently sitting in jail after assaulting his mother with a taco. According to reports, 54-year-old Dena Moir turned her 19-year-old son’s Xbox 360 off, and he threw the delicious Mexican snack in her frail face, making sure to also call her, and I quote, “a retard.”

I told you this story was good.

The trouble started when young Zachery refused to come downstairs for dinner, despite being called a number of times. In an act of brave discipline, Dena marched upstairs and turned the Xbox off, only for Zachery to shove her angrily and order her out of the room. 

A little later, Dena was cleaning the kitchen when her son came down to eat. Deciding she was in the way, Zach pushed his mother again, before smacking her on the arm and throwing the tortilla-wrapped missile with beef-themed vengeance. This is also when he called her, and I quote again, “a retard.”

Zachery Moir is now being held without bail at Volusia County Branch Jail, on charges of domestic violence battery. This is because even if you act like a complete infant, you can still be tried as a man.
