Your curse her to die it seems in Singapore. ACK!

The clothes went into the fire. So did the pictures, books and a host of other items.
Feeling jilted and left behind, an emotional Mr Teo Boon Teck severed all ties with his fiancee, Ms Dinh Thi Thom, 21, who had left Singapore with her family on Wednesday without his knowledge. The two sides have been fighting for month over who had the right to take care of Ms Dinh and where, after she was knocked down by a lorry last Xmas Eve and went into a coma. Her mother wanted to take her home to Vietnam, but Mr Teo insisted that his fiancee remain here in Singapore. When Mr Teo discovered his bride had vanished, he denounced her as heartless.

Overcome by anger and emotion, he decided to burn all the things she had left behind in his family's flat, where they were living. He threw all the items into a metal container meant for paper offerings for the dead at the foot of his block and cursed Ms Dinh to suffer an early death. He even went to the extent of burning hell notes and incense for her at the accident site.

He said in Mandarin: "By burning all her things, I am severing all ties from her. I don't regard her as my 'wife' anymore. The faster she dies, the better. Don't disturb my life."

Mr Teo had earlier demanded Ms. Dinh's family pay him back $30,000 if they took her back to Vietnam. This was to cover the living expenses he has incurred since she came to Singapore last October to marry him, he argued.

Mr Teo's father said his son was beside himself when he discovered Ms Dinh had left. Worried, he called his son and told him to go home. "I told him to treat her like she's no more, gone. It's no use thinking about her, she won't come back. If she dies in Vietnam, it's none of our business. When we have money, I will find another wife for him. Forget about her."

The younger Mr Teo apparently took his father's advice to heart. He was determined to erase all signs of Ms Dinh in his home, including the notebooks she sused to learn Mandarin, her lipsticks, her yellow hair clip, and her pictures. But he only burnt those pictures of Ms Dinh alone - he didn't burn any picturs that had his face in them. "Then it'll be like I'm following her to die," he said.

To curse her, he used a joss stick to draw patterns over her photos and chanted her name repeatedly, before putting them on the ground and stomping hard on them.  He said loudly: "Dinh Thi Thom, go faster. If I can't get you, I don't want your mother to be able to get you also. I have taken my revenge. You are dead to me now."

Mr Teo still plans to speak  to the investigating officer of Ms Dinh's accident case. He now claims that the road accident that led to Ms Dinh's coma did not happenas he had originally described it. He claims he had been 'covering up' for her. Police investigations into the accident are still going on.

He claimed:"I want her to go to jail. It's her retribution, her just desserts."

I think he just wants his refund. But his failure as a human being depresses me.

Failure as a human being ?

Sounds like a mere cultural thing to me.

The correct option would have been to listen to a lot of Smiths songs.

To understand how good the Smiths funny was, you have to know some Smiths songs. And that makes anybody who gets it unfortunate. I know, it's really serious.

Clearly not enough for the double and triple bluff.

This thread got good once we ignored the actual story.

Now you've started something you can't finish. You're going to get everyone in a panic, and that joke isn't funny anymore.
