“Honey, I feel like you’re not listening to me.” … “Whatever would give you that impression?”
A 23-year-old Tennessee man bailed from a moving vehicle last Thursday during an argument with his wife, who was driving, because she wouldn’t “shut up.” He’s in critical but stable condition after being helicoptered to the hospital.

Love the category this is filed under.
I’ve never laughed at a blog entry category before!
This has crossed my mind more than once. Thank you Holy Spirit for restraint.
I actually did this to my husband, for the same reason. He would not shut his pie hole! However, luckily, he stopped the car before I jumped out!
ha! i chaperoned my daughter’s class on a museum field trip this morning and contemplated the same on the bus ride home. 100 first graders can definitely send one over the edge but not as easily as a scorn wife, apparently. semi-new follower and loving this blog! keep up the great work, abraham! :)
this is funny but at root very sad! speaks of alienation, helplessness, exasperation.
it makes me think of those proverbs that say, “better to live in a desert land that with a quarrelsome and fretful woman”.
after getting over the initial “wtf?” i felt when first reading those verses (there are lots of proverbs that talk about the effect of men who are lamers, too)…i thought, “yeah.”
and as kaye mentioned earlier, the same reaction can be induced by a quarrelsome, fretful man!
*that* would happen in tennessee…
I wonder if he was influenced by movie stunts. People jump out of moving vehicles all the time without getting hurt, right?
