Aaaaaaaauuuuuuuughhhhhhh. And I thought Waita Uziga was fucked up.
I have to admit, if it wasn’t someone I once knew, I would almost certainly at least start to watch it.
But I guess I’ve finally found the line I will not cross. I cannot imagine watching this video, even though I only worked with the guy briefly about a decade ago.
But if it was a perfect stranger… Yeah, I’d be lying if I said my morbid curiosity probably wouldn’t win that battle. I’m not proud of that fact, but I guess I’m not ashamed enough to deny it.
arminm.com says they tried to eat it raw but had to cook it because it was too tough.
Eating raw meat is difficult and unwise.
ISTRI reading elsewhere that it was fried.
He was still bleeding after they’d finished the meal. He sat in bath until he lost consciousness from loss of blood, then his throat was slashed. So he was still bleeding then.
The victim’s other body parts were cooked on a BBQ in the garden, so maybe.
Yeah, good thing they didn’t indulge in any risky behaviour.
I assumed Uziga was the Japanese guy who got away with murder, previously mentioned by **
Malthus**, until I did a Google search on the name.
Charming.
Yes. Because there’s more to life than just being happy. You also have an obligation to be useful to your fellow humans and someone who is so deluded as to believe that he’s going to be Emperor of Antarctica isn’t going to do much that is useful to others. That was a delusion that mathematician John Nash once had, and he’s certainly glad today that he can do and teach math again.
If he is insane, then I think he falls into the category of being unable to make rational, reasonable decisions. I think self-consumption would never, not ever, be considered a rational act.
They may decide that the victim was unable to give meaningful consent because of mental defect and thus conclude that he was murdered, that he was NOT of sound mind when he wrote out his will.
Well, you beat me to the punch for a smart-ass retort, Revtim.
I mean, really. The man was willing to be literally led to slaughter, and in the process dine on his own genitalia. You’d think the dangers of uncooked meat would be the last thing on their minds. On the other hand, with these men, you never know. For the victim at least, it seems like the equivalent of ordering a low-fat last meal. And in this case it was his last meal.
I know I’m babbling. It’s just that in a case like this it’s hard to know what the appropriate response is other than, “Jesus Christ on a Big Wheel!”
Or words to that effect.
My understanding has been that it would be dangerous for a human population to try to sustain itself on human flesh. All kinds of nasty diseases would crop up. Cannibalism has only been practiced in limited ritual contexts.
Let’s hope it’s a while before we see a thread that tops this one.
If you’re trying to compare this to people asking for understanding and compassion for gay rights…
:rolleyes:
Who was the nutjob that used the term “deathstyle” to refer to homosexuality? I think that term actually applies here.
Um…so everyone else here saw that as the pseudo-joke it was, except for you?

Don’t worry honey…You will pass Handy soon enough without all of the ‘rolleyes’ posts.
I seem to recall hearing about mad-cow type type diseases (laughing sickness?) being much more common in cannibalistic cultures.
I also wonder about the societal problems that would arise if your fellow neighbor could be considered a food source, and vice-versa,
The “laughing sickness” I was referring to in my last post is called kuru.
I waited until today to reply to this OP, as I’ve been trying to wrap my head around it. Too. Freaking. Wierd. And. Gross.
Needless to say, all meals since reading this have been suspended - possibly, indefinitely. And had nightmares all night long.
Ick. Ick, ick, ick, ick. Not enough hot showers in the world to wash this off/out of me.
I pity you.
Hey, she’s got to get a post into every single thread on the boards, cut her some slack, that can’t be easy.
I’m a little confused. How do we know that he ate his own penis? I just read the articles cited above, which indicate that he was castrated and that they fed on that. To me, that means testicles. So can I at least comfort myself by thinking that he ‘only’ ate his own balls, and not his penis as well?
Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don’t.
Tell me about it. I see threads, and I can’t think of a single thing to add, so I have to let it go…but Guin never let’s me down!
She’s so cute…like a mascot or something.
tickles Guin
So…
I wonder what it tasted like?
Amateur, obviously.
This story is going in the part of my brain that only gets accessed when I least want it to be. When I’m in the middle of a lovely fantasy about Orlando Bloom…or when I’m trying to sleep alone in my flat and getting creeped out, I’m going to think of this freakdom. I will be forced to immediately extricate myself from bed to take a long scalding shower to rid myself of the mental wasps stinging me all over.
:shudder:
