wtf...

are you certain she wasn't trying to kill an abuser?

Fun fact, the inventor of Vaseline recommended eating it, and ate it every day.

Chesebrough lived to be 96 years old and was such a believer in Vaseline that he claimed to have eaten "more than a teaspoon" of it every day.^[6][7]^

from where? the section on how to murder a cheating bastard the stupid way?

It's I believe "she don't use jelly" by the flaming lips. But also Vaseline isn't that toxic to eat (I would not recommend eating it) especially if you were only using it to butter toast.

It's just a fun, silly song.
