That's almost as bad as Death by Bamboo Earrings (at least two pair)...

Is this related to the Sharpie Plague decimating the female population of Mexico?

Hummm I can sympathize with this plight. I was trying to un-super glue something by dissolving it with acetone. I did not realize that that would release cyanide gas thus forcing the lab to evacuate.

...died from a massive anal dildo overdose.

.....died from auto erotic asphyxiation involving a colostomy bag

Something about this story seems a bit unbweaveable.

Black people problems.

I take it that the application was not the same that she normally uses? I don't really understand the totality of allergens and what not. Was she allergic to latex and it just finally got her or can you develop it even after other exposures?

I don't know if you would consider this a bad way to go, or not.

Second.

This almost validates one of the classic urban legends...with something leeching into the victim's bloodstream while dancing.

gee, nothing about how a decade and a half of hard drinking and staying up all night (and who knows, she could have been out hanging and banging long before she was 18), just possibly, maybe, potentially catching up with your other poor health habits, and you know, possibly causing your early shuffling off this mortal coil. No, it has to be an external cause, something for which she deserves no blame. Hair weaves, perfect.

Oh. She did not have to have hair weaves, they're optional, aren't they? Dammit, this whole avoidance of personal responsibility thing is harder than it looks.

Bald peoples problems.

how can you be a housewife with only a boyfriend??

Noobian Noob: how can you be a housewife with only a boyfriend??

"House-shawty" just looks terrible in print...

To be fair, FTFA they have absolutely no idea why she died. This is only a guess.

Oh, I got highlights. They'll blend in in a week.

Except for this:

After lengthy discussions with experts the pathologist said he was certain the cause of death was anaphylactic shock as the level of tryptase, which occurs naturally in the body during an allergic reaction, was 178 micrograms per litre of blood - up to 25 times higher than the normal amount of between two and 14 micrograms per litre.


They couldn't determine if it was the weave, but none of the information in the article implied it could have been related to being a long time bar whore. And the level of alcohol in her system was apparently not all that high either, not to mention they didn't find any other drugs.

Of course, it is a Daily Mail article, so it's questionable whether any of the store happened at all.

*story. Not store. ftfm.

Could be worse. Obituary could read "killed for hair extensions".

True story. While cutting the grass years ago I noticed a turtle crawling across the highway and traffic was starting to get busy at that time of the day. Not that I have a thing for turtles, but I guess he caught me on a good day so I decided to let the traffic die down some and go pick him up and save his ass by carrying it across the road. Have you ever played tiddlywinks as a kid? One of the cars caught the edge of the shell and shot that damn turtle right at me -- at least 5,000 hours per hour.

While diving off of the mower the only thing that ran through my mind was how my obit would read: "Local man killed by flying turtle".

//was able to move much faster back in the day

Wanted for questioning...

But...was the turtle okay?

csb-tangent: Back when I was doing my drivers education training, the instructor told me to change lanes. As I signalled and began to move over, I saw a turtle. Hit 'em with the front left and back right tires.

Not sure if he made it.

He made the best tasting turtle soup!

Loves me some turtle soup. Best I've had (outside of my own kitchen) has gotta be a toss up between Middendorf's off the LA 51 bridge, or Bobby's Seafood in Harahan.

one good turtle deserves another. i was driving along and saw a truly massive turtle slowly making his way toward the road. didn't want the thing to get hurt so i pulled over.
i know nothing about turtles. i thought i would be able to just reach and turn the turtle 180 and it would be fine.
luckily someone else saw the monster size turtle, turned around and came back. told the guy my plan. he told me how dangerous snapping turtles are. i almost shiat myself as the fellow put a stick in front of the turtle and -wham!- it's head shot forward and chomped the stick. i had no clue they could move with any speed at all.
we got the turtle safely turned around. i'm very happy that guy stopped. i have no doubt i was saved from doing something quite painful.

I was once at Charlestown Landing in Chas., SC(grew up 800 yds from there) I think I was high and enjoying the scenery, when I saw a snapper walking between ponds. A toddler went up to it and stuck his hand out. Mom was 50 ft down the paved trail. I yelled "Nooooo! and ran to scare the kid . I wasn't up to explaining, so the mom gave me a scathing eat-shiat look. No biggie, I'd saved half that kid's hand at least.

Hope Karma gets me back for that one.

"Killed by golden eagle through windshield".

True story: I was driving along California State Highway 4 headed east from my office in Stockton to the company office in Sonora. I was driving through the hills in my 1965 MGB roadster when I saw this huge damn golden eagle flying straight toward my car. I considered hitting the brakes until I looked in my rear view mirror and saw a big rig behind me. All I could do was duck down in my seat and hope the bird went over.

The bird came in about a foot over the hood, swooped up... and straight into the front of the rig behind me.
