Man Leaps to His Death in Shopping Mall After Girlfriend Insists on More Shopping

Dude's got balls. Every guy has fantasized about it. He actually sacked up and did it.
 
Good lord I get it, I really do. Been there, maybe even jokingly thought about doing it. But wow. Just wow. Best quote from the article? "This is a tragic incident, but this time of year can be very stressful for many people." :shock:

Man Leaps to His Death in Shopping Mall After Girlfriend Insists on More Shopping

CHINA - a 38-year-old man leaped to his death after an argument with his girlfriend who insisted they continue shopping. CCTV captured Tao Hsiao and his girlfriend in a mall in Xuzhou, Jiangsu province, east China where they had reportedly been shopping for five hours or so before he hit his limit.

Eyewitnesses said Hsiao could be heard telling his girlfriend that they already had more bags than they could carry, but she insisted on hitting one more store where there was a sale on shoes.

An eyewitness said: "He told her she already had enough shoes, more shoes that she could wear in a lifetime, and it was pointless buying any more. She started shouting at him, accusing him of being a skinflint, and of spoiling Christmas. It was a really heated argument."

The argument continued until Hsiao threw the bags on the floor and himself over the balcony, dropping seven stories to his death and smashing Christmas decorations on the way down. He was killed on impact.

Should have just taken the bags, found a bar, and let her find him when she was done. I mean jumping to your death because of shopping? A bit of an overreaction if true.
 
I would've jumped too.
 
You guys are soft. Try shopping with a wife who's curvy enough to look good in anything, but can't ever find a store that has her size. Get back to me when you've walked down Isabela la Catolica St. in Mexico City for 7 hours.

Man's complaining about staring at his wife's ass all day. What's up with that? :lol:
 
I would've jumped too.

He'd have been a lot worse off had he thrown the bags over the railing, so you guys don't get that he was making the right choice. :2razz:

I hate shopping. The shopping part would be OK if it weren't for the people. :p
 
Symbolizes the pain and suffering of the male species. Fight the power, men! :mrgreen:

Ladies go shopping.

Men go purchasing.

There's a difference.

Never the twain shall meet, unless absolutely necessary, and then, it needs to be kept to an absolute minimum time exposure possible.

O.M.G. I have been this guy on so many occasions.. :)

Why do women think men enjoy shopping?


Tim-
 
Shop it on the internet, find a store that has what I want, run in, buy it, back out in 15 minutes. Just get. out. of. my way.

I hate shopping.
 
In Communist China...

You just can't make this $hit up!

New flash (now hold onto your horses this might blow your mind), just because you are ran by a certain party (in this case communist) does not make your country that parties "claimed" ideology. Hell i dont even think the CPC claims to be communist anymore.

I don't believe that I'll ever do what this poor guy did but I totally understand what was going through his head.

I wonder if his girlfriend learned anything from this sad experience.

I can say I felt like that many times. I hate shopping. I go into a store, get exactly what I need and get the heck out. Any shopping more than 10-15 minutes is shopping way too much. If the wife wants to shop, she goes with one of our daughters, not with me. I am good at letting loose my chickman's call right there in the middle of the store if I figure we had been there long enough.
 
You found a couch?

Yeah.

In my cave.

Equidistant from my Xbox and my mini fridge.

That's where you can find me when my wife goes shoe shopping.
 
:blah: So there! :lamo:

What is it with women and shopping? How can anyone enjoy going to a crowed store, look at everything four times, change their mind three times and take 18 hours doing it. Then I have to listen to them complain if they have to spend more than a couple of minutes in line when it is time to check out. Crazy, just plain crazy.
