Like... what...the... fuck?


Jude Ralston, 32 From Hudson, Ohio committed suicide over allegedly hearing a spoiler from the latest Harry Potter Novel.

He left a suicide note indicating that because he overheard the plot spoiler earlier that day, “I no longer have a reason to live”. Jude the avid fan also wore a wizard hat occasionally around town and had the license plate of "Hogwarts"

Friends and family gathered outside his house to have a candle light memorial. Polly Clovis, an ex school mate, said that hopefully his death will alert the authorities to restrict the flow of Harry Potter plot information to prevent other incidents.

I may not like Harry Potter. I may not buy into the hype. But I do think that if I 'were' a fan, I would hate hearing spoilers too(that is, if i were a super crazy fan like the rest of you, if i were just a normal fan i wouldn't make such a big deal out of it).

But this.... is just freaking crazy.

Ending your life over spoilers. That's just stupid, dumb and unnecessary. Some of you might say, "You are not him, you won't understand the pain of a super-fan knowing the spoilers of the absolutely final and last book of the Harry Potter series".

Yes, I'm not him, and I'm glad too. Why would I want to be like him? Or "understand the reason why he loves harry potter so much"?

Bottom line, killing yourself over a book is just stupid.



If all of you hate spoilers, why don't you all stop watching movies?
How many times have you watched a movie where the bad guy rapes the girl in the end? Or the mighty USA military fails to save the world from space-lobsters? Or seeing bruce willis killed, or arnold killed?

Well, almost never don't you think? Most of the time, USA saves the world, the heavily injured hero lives again, the guy gets the girl, bunnies hop everywhere, the sun rises again.

Seriously la, big deal.

Get a life.
