What a tricky case! He videotaped himself EATING A GUY. Is every single lawyer in Germany named Hamilton Burger? [The inspiring story of Arwan Meiwes](http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/3286721.stm). Some people shouldn’t chase their dream. Here’s the best part (aside from the flambeed penis, of course): > [@](#): > > Mr Meiwes advertised on the internet for a well-built male prepared to be slaughtered and then consumed. > … > The case only came to light when an Austrian student spotted another advertisement placed by Mr Meiwes on the internet and alerted police. And that, friends, is why you shouldn’t answer ads on the internet. ---

Yeah, I don’t understand anyone who would answer the ad. ---

Yeah, that raises the question of who is more crazy/stupid: the guy who took out the ad, or the guy who ate his own cooked member? ---

The weird thing is, if you read up on this guy, he’s had other people who answered his ad, but then chickened out during the early stages of his weird game. Supposedly he politely let them out of it. Bubba Um, but I thought that when you said you wanted to _eat me_ you, um, oh never mind. ---

It’s a tricky case precisely because the victim was a volunteer. [http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/europe/12/03/germany.cannibal.trial/index.html](http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/europe/12/03/germany.cannibal.trial/index.html) > [@](#): > > The defense is expected to argue that the victim, a 43-year-old computer technician identified only as Bernd Juergen B., from Berlin, agreed to the macabre event. > > The defense is believed to be seeking a charge of killing on demand, which carries a maximum five-year sentence if proven, rather than murder which holds a possible life sentence. ---

You know, two years ago I put an ad on match dot com looking to meet a woman. In the two months the ad was up, I received precisely zero replies. Now I see what I was doing wrong! It should have been “eat,” not “meet!” [sub]On second thought, after seeing the obvious _double entendre_ there, I probably would have gotten even more replies than Herr Kannibal.[/sub] ---

Oh, for fucks sake. Nobody answers my (non cannibalistic) personals ads, but this guy gets an answer to his? What’s the world coming to? ---

How exactly did he die? Did he bleed to death after flambaying (sp?) his member? ---

Actually it’s more of a reason TO answer ads. He asked for something he got it. He wasn’t lured in by false advertising. ---

Does anyone know if assisting suicide is illegal in Germany. Since the victim being completely conscenting would seem to be a case of suicide rather than murder. ---
