HOOOOOOOLY SHIIIT! WOW!
Man Commits Suicide in Mall After Girlfriend Refuses to Stop Shopping
Xuzhou, China - Tao Hsiao, a Chinese man, apparently jumped to his death in a shopping mall in Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province, located in eastern China.
Tao apparently was angry that he had to continue escorting his girlfriend around in a shopping mall, according to the Daily Mail, citing local Chinese reports.
Tao and his girlfriend, who was not identified, shopped for about five hours before he got sick of it and said they should go home.
He then dropped his bags on the floor and climbed over the balcony and jumped from seven stories up to his death.
“He told her she already had enough shoes, more shoes that she could wear in a lifetime and it was pointless buying any more,” one witness was quoted as saying.
The witness continued: “She started shouting at him accusing him of being a skinflint and of spoiling Christmas, it was a really heated argument.”
After the two stopped yelling at each other, Tao then jumped, the witness said.
Tao reportedly smashed through Christmas decorations in the mall before he hit the ground, causing shoppers to disperse out of fear.
“He actually landed on one of the stalls below and then fell to the floor so although the store was damaged it meant he didn’t hit anybody,” a spokesperson with the shopping mall said.
The spokesperson said his body was removed quickly, adding: ”This is a tragic incident, but this time of year can be very stressful for many people.”
According to CQ News, the man also smashed through a counter.
Local Chinese broadcaster Aboluowang.com reported that the incident took place on Dec. 7 at around 4 p.m. local time.
china
That'll teach her.
Wonder if this had anything to do with the fact that in China there are more men than women and if he were to be stuck with this GF, he would have had to face multiple hours of shopping with this girl w/o many alternatives...
One less rocket fan![]()
forward this story to your girlfriends and wives, friends.
Pretty safe to guess his girlfriend's excessive shopping was the excuse and not the reason. No one commits suicide on a whim, no matter how much of a drama queen they are.
You can see his Peak shoes if you look closely.
That's a given. The dude probably had a rough 22-hour workday at the Apple factory. All he wanted was a Pepsi and maybe some dumplings and just some time to relax.
lol is skinflint really the word that translated?
i have no idea what a skinflint is but that's the word used in the original article on gawker.
i'd usually agree with this but we're talking china here. they have no concept of the sanc y of an individual.
I bet the girl continued shopping anyways
This story reinforces and justifies Rogue's misogyny and hatred of yellow people
I was worried about replying to this topic i didn't want it to bump off any of the 2013 topics of the year stats.
I've threatened my girlfriend with killing myself because she's taking too long to shop, I can't believe somebody actually did it, tbh
..legendary..
In my head, I picture him as Chow. It's makes it kind of funny.
Those Shinese people are crazy. They just need to be more like Chingo. I just give my viejas my Bisa card and stay home and watch the pinche Texans lose.
oh look you changed the V to a B
oh look. you changed your pinga to a panocha.
pinche puto vavoso.
But he was too chicken to just say "I don't feel like shopping today, you go ahead"![]()
But seriously I can't understand why any woman would want a man around while she shops. If it's just so he can pay, and you both know it, just take his card and be on your merry way. I can't think of anything more torturous than to have a man whining and breathing down my neck while I browse.
