RO: Man slaughters women because he can't get a girlfriend

Hey, speak for yourself! :wink:

What weirds me out is how this whackjob manage to post a blog describing in detail what he’s about to do, and nobody bothered to rat him out. You’d think, with the level of gov’t intrusion and lack of privacy these days, some agency would’ve stumbled upon this guy’s mad rantings – what are our taxes paying Homeland Security for, anyway?

They probably saw his threats and said to themselves “he might do it, but so what? At least a few useless women will meet grisly deaths?” Am I right?

Indeed, it was incubated in a toxic brew of misbegotten angst, ignited by low self-esteem, exploding into a veritable concatenation of asshattery.

I just read an article on the same guy on Ninemsn, and I love this bit:

No siree Mr Crazed Gunman who keeps a blog on his sexual frustration and plans to slaughter innocent people, you’re not too weird. It must be those desirable women who are to blame. Bitches!

From the guy’s blog (GeorgesOdinI.com is for sale | HugeDomains). Guy’s got problems.

I mean, I’ve gone through long dry spells before. Much as it often seems like “it’s a conspiracy by womankind to keep me dateless and lonely”, I know that I’m to blame in many respects. Yes, I do have bad luck, and found myself constantly meeting women who went back to the ex after the first date, but that hasn’t driven me into misogyny. I blame my lapses into social ineptitude as much as my luck, if not more. Women can be mysterious creatures, but they’re not evil. That’s why I kept carrying on …

I’m about four months out of a two-year LTR; we had a mutual split after I moved to Austin last November. We’re still very good friends, as I am with most of my ex-girlfriends. I learned so much from her …

Ringgold High School, class of 1988. I grew up right outside of Finleyville.

Just to be safe, I would urge all hot, young women to pity fuck a crazy guy. You just may save a life.

Funny that. Bing (for varity) gives 8.890.000 hits on “testosterone poisoning”, 525 “estrogen poisoning”.

But I wonder why the man couldn’t get a woman. Because it is true what he wrote, he wasn’t bad looking. He had a stable job. A place to live. Earned well. At the worst he could have hitched up with a Philippine mail order bride.

Rune, I’d have to guess that it’s because it’s not only hot chicks that can give of Teh Crazy vibe. Women probably dated him, saw he had some kind of Jon Arbuckle complex, and said “no thanks”. The ensuing years of rejection probably made it worse and worse, like a negative feedback loop.

The dude just needed a cat.

Can you please link to the photo(s) you saw that bear this out? The one I saw on CNN was truly frightening.

He was crazy. Who’s to say any of it was really true? IME unhappy mentally ill people can fixate on some problem out of all proportion to reality.

One of those dudes who is so incredibily superfical, all he wants is a hot woman…the same type of dude who gets one of those mail order brides b/c American women are just too strident.

Just out of curiosity do any of the people using the term “mail order bride” actually know anyone who has married a “mail order bride?” Because I have never encountered anyone who has. Just how common is this practice?

I agree. This has about as much to do with pair-bonding as Mark Barton’s killing spree had to do with day-trading, or Andrew Cunanan the gay club scene, O.J. with sports celebrity marriage, etc., etc.

Perhaps we need a poster?

I have known three of them but the term is a little antiquated these days because of ease of overseas communication via the internet. There were (are?) services that specialized in matching oversees females that wanted to move to the U.S. and were willing to marry for it. Desperate men paid to get them via those services and it was expensive. I am sure there are still plenty of those services around but their business model probably changed over time as technology improved.

There was a thread here about someone that the OP knew marrying a mail order bride. It was a great story. You can find it throughout the thread here, and there’s also a lot of discussion about the whole mail order bride thing and anecdotes from other people who knew couples like that.

I was born in Upper St. Clair, but we moved to St. Louis when I was young. So, although I did graduate high school in 1988 as well, I didn’t move back until 1996 - I live in Bethel Park now.

You know, by the way, that all true Pittsburghers move back, right?

Well, I’m a true Pittsburgher, and I haven’t (yet). So this is a likely logical fallacy akin to making assertions about rapists in Aberdeen.

BTW - we Mon Valley types always viewed those kids from USC as insufferable cake eaters, and the ones from Bethel Park little better. Luckily I’m more charitable in my views today.

Silly crazy guy. If you can’t get a girlfriend, shoot other men. All that stuff women say about how they wouldn’t touch you if you were the last man on earth? Just a figure of speech, don’t worry.

I do, but he wasn’t the guy who “ordered” her. She showed up from Lithuania, met the order-er, threw up a little bit in her mouth, and left.

Went to a bar, met my friend, rest’s history.
