 man kills himself after girlfriend refuses to stop shopping http://gawker.com/man-commits-suicide-in-mall-after-girlfriend-refuses-to-1479660064Quote: A man who was fed up with his girlfriend's incessant Christmas shopping responded to her request for one more look around a mall shoe store by leaping seven floors to his death.
The 38-year-old, identified as Tao Hsiao, had been shopping with his girlfriend at the Golden Eagle International Shopping Center in Xuzhou, China, when she asked to check out one last shoe store.
Having been inside the mall for five hours, Tao had reached his limit, and reportedly insisted that they leave immediately.
"He told her she already had enough shoes, more shoes that she could wear in a lifetime and it was pointless buying any more," an eyewitness was quoted as saying. "She started shouting at him accusing him of being a skinflint and of spoiling Christmas, it was a really heated argument."
Surveillance footage shows Tao angrily hurling the shopping bags and jumping over the railing onto the cosmetics section below.
A spokesman for the shopping center says no one below was injured in December 7 incident, and that the man died instantly upon impact.
"This is a tragic incident, but this time of year can be very stressful for many people," the spokesman said.

Re: man kills himself after girlfriend refuses to stop shopp This is tragic. But also kinda funny. Reminds me of the Killer Joe scene, where McConaughey tells the story of a guy setting his genitals on fire to teach his girlfriend a lesson. In a different story the guy could have thrown his girlfriend to the ground, but he decided to use his anger against himself. Ah well.

Re: man kills himself after girlfriend refuses to stop shopp What a pussy. His girlfriend was only shopping for five hours. I've gone shopping for 12 straight hours before.

Re: man kills himself after girlfriend refuses to stop shopp Girls in China are fucking spoiled bitches. I don't expect she gave two shits that he's dead. I bet she misses the mullah, though. This story doesn't surprise me in the slightest.

Re: man kills himself after girlfriend refuses to stop shopp If he had a big penis, he wouldn't have killed himself.

Re: man kills himself after girlfriend refuses to stop shopp Yeah, my Bullshit Meter is going off. A report from China, as reported in the London Daily News (which is practically Britian's version of the Weekly World News)?
I'll wait for Snopes' version.
