QuoteHusband jumps in river to escape nagging

A Chinese lorry driver jumped into a fast-flowing river because he couldn't take his wife's nagging anymore.

Zhou and his wife were on a ferry on the Yangtze River when it all became too much for him, reports the Chongqing Evening Post.

Members of the ship's crew saw the man suddenly run out of his cabin with his hands covering his ears, and shouting: "I can't stand it any longer."

They initially thought he was suffering from an ear injury and went to help him but found he was unhurt.

"While we were still puzzling over the this, his wife ran up and continued nagging him," said one crewmate.

"The husband covered his ears again and said: 'I need a break' before jumping over the side into the rushing river.

"We immediately found lamps to light up the water but found nobody. The possibility of survival can be zero."

However, later that night, police found the man who had managed to swim more than a mile across across the broad river.

"I felt I was dying, but even that's better than my wife's nagging," he reportedly told the police.

The couple were reunited the following morning at the local police station where Zhou's wife promised to give up her habit of nagging him.

I wonder what Mono has been up to...

How sad. Another case of gay marriage breaking up a happy straight couple. :(

I know my ability to take being nagged has remained high since I know I cannot just leave her for a gay man, because they aren't bitchy or anything.

Good luck with that.  She's gonna nag him about jumping in to a river until he jumps off a cliff.

Good man.

He'd have thrown the nagging wife in the water, but the wife wouldn't stop even there, "There you go, too unmanly to even murder me properly to shut me up".

QuoteRussian man survives five storey fall - twice

A Russian man survived after downing three bottles of vodka and leaping from a fifth floor balcony - twice.

Alexei Roskov says he jumped the second time because he couldn't take his wife's nagging about the first time.

Wife Yekaterina had watched in horror as her drunken hubsand opened the kitchen window of their Moscow apartment, and hurled himself out.

Astonishingly Mr Roskov, 22, survived and managed to stagger back upstairs with barely a scratch after the 50ft fall.

But while his wife called for an ambulance and began to scold him, he jumped again.

Amazed medics treated Mr Roskov for minor cuts and bruises before releasing him.

Mr Roskov says he is now teetotal after giving up drinking, and added: "Now I can say just one thing - I was very lucky.

"I have no idea why I jumped the first time but when I came back up and I heard my wife screaming angrily at me I thought it was best if I left the room again - out of the window."

What's even more miraculous is that he did not die from alcohol poisoning.

All you have to do is carefully remember all his faults and then critisize them all at once and use lots of examples.  That tends to emasculate and crush his ego and make him want to shoot himself than endure any more of your vicious soul killing assault.

Really?  You think that works better?  I'll use nagging for a week, and then use your method for a week and compare.  Will keep you posted.

better: blame him for things that are not his fault, and use his personal failings as reasons.

"this computer does not work. I told you not the play so much WOW."
"I ruined dinner; this is because you never show appreciation."
"I maxed my credit card; you don't make enough money. how come you never get promoted? stop playing WOW and listen to me for once!"
