A woman scorned

Reminds me of the hard drive a guy was selling not so long ago on e-bay. He gave his reason for selling it that he didn't know when he bought it for his wife that she was planning to fill it up with the naked pictures and videos of herself he'd found on it, which she was distributing to various online boyfriends while he was at work... the advert ended saying something like "oh and in case you're wondering, I'm getting rid of her too".

Poor guy, but I suspect this happens a lot these days given the popularity of all of the online "dating" sites and what not.

Poor guy? I don't blame the girl for blowing up at him like this (the billboard I mean). But the car was definitely beyond the line.....she coulda gotten that in the lawsuit if she had videotaped evidence to begin with.

An open/shut case.

And great question on your sig. Kiwi. Add a little bit to that line that even the dog wouldn't eat the burnt toast (and the walking garbage disposal wouldn't eat it!!......spoiled dog).

I could almost swear about hearing about this billboard sometime recently. Was this a recent news item or something? Lots of urban legend breakup stories like that.

I saw on the morning news that this whole billboard is actually an advertising ploy

Thought so,
The car picture doesnt look real too, No metal twisting around the impact point.

Take a look at the car window that's a dead give away, it's fake alright.

Ahh both pictures do not belong, one is from the US billboard the other from France. But they're not related.
Couldn't tell ya tho if its truly fake, your probably right.

Anyways i can tell ya this is fake

I think it is two year ago when another dissapointed lady took revenge of a special kind. She took the real great love of her friend - a red and expensive Ferrari - and sold it at ebay for one or for Five euros, then handed him the money.

Happened in England, when I remember correctly. Women. Don't know the true value of cars...

A long time ago I saw this motorcycle add in a local paper:

"Wife says bike goes or she does. Either one, $500."

The car picture might be real, those are pick axes not sledge hammers, they are designed to put holes in stuff.

Wife's overrated.

The pickaxes are likely real. The front plate has been covered up with newspaper, so that's probably from an insurance company claim manager. Looks like Europe to me. Most harsh.

The sign is kind of funny.
