106 year old woman commits suicide...
 

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh I guess after 106 years, she finally decided she couldn't take it anymore. Goddamn, don't you make those kinds of decisions earlier in life? Might aswell go ahead and finish out the year damn. Guess not.

fuck. that is sad.

i didnt' read the article but..

i assume she was very lonely for many years, hoping she'd die.

Fucked up either way...

If she lost the nerve to drink the suicide anti-freeze, then maybe she changed her mind about dying altogether?!? And why the fuck would a 30 year old man die with her? His life was just getting started? Oh well... it's not like anybody can do anything about it now!

thats sad :(

she just can't wait any longer

he got to crash on some old ladies couch for 9 years? that's hot.

106 and end up with suicide--there must be something wrong--foul play?

Well... not only old people commit suicide, ya know :winkwink:

both sad and f*cked up at the same time

Death by antifreeze :(

Hmm something real odd about that.

Jeez ya lazy ass, read the article, it's not too long. ; )

By the way, very sad ... I'm betting $100 the guy was gay.

idiots laugh at anything

Nope. Wrong assumption.

edit: And she didn't actually commit suicide, she was murdered.

uugh...I am not laughing at an old woman dying people. I am laughing at how it sounds. 106 years old...can't take not one more day...the irony...

nevermind...

killing a 106 year old cant be too hard.just stating the obvious here...

I reacted on that as well :1orglaugh

That seems just a little bit more than strange

Something is fishy. I think there's more to the story.

too bad =\\

Well that is a little strange

Wtf, she wasted her last remaining 165 days?! :(

I couldn't imagine living past 65..if I do it will be a miracle

I just dont understand people in this world anymore.

no. she ended her life in a better way.

fuck waiting to die, fuck dying slowly. she went out like a trooper.

dumbasses

Hmm, that is bizarre. She wanted to die, but couldnt bring herself to commit suicide, so instead she had her caretaker kill her.

I think I'd wanna die around 80-85 or so. Imagine living 25 years past 80! You can't fuck, you can't walk up stairs, you can't even pee on cue. That's no way to live life.

awful shit happens

Her caretaker was the reincarnation of her former husband. They could not bear to be apart in life or death :) believe it..or not :upsidedow

Damn 106 sure lived a long life

Mercy killing maybe? She might have asked for it from him as a favor got tired of living lonely, burden and useless..And as a care taker that cares with the conscience might have finished himself bec of the guilt and might as well be with dead than be alive with a bothered mind.. :Oh crap

I don't mind the age, I am more of the condition of the health. Some of the 80 year olds I know are still pretty healthy and active as compare to some 50 yr olds who can be very sickly. I wouldn't want to be at that state that I would be a burden to my family or to some nursing home, no matter what age I would reach

I bet he killed her because she wouldn't gum him to sleep. Then killed himself.

I bet life at 106 isnt much fun

Sad.
