A disturbing interview with a couple who decided to amputate and exchange their ring fingers. Some explicit photos of the lopped off digits in the article so don’t click if you are squeamish. Oh, and the way they actually cut off their fingers isn’t really the most “tasteful” way to sever an appendage. If you excuse me, I am going to go throw up in my mouth.
Why not just give her a promise ring or something?
GILLIAN:
I’m not dating a ring, and I don’t want a ring. I’m dating flesh, and I want flesh to make a commitment to me. What good is a ring to me? It doesn’t really mean anything. I’ve been engaged before — and look where that took me: Nowhere. I wanted this time to be different. Plus, he’s been previously married, and I wanted to make sure that it wasn’t a repeat of that relationship. I told him if he was serious about this, he had to prove it — and that I was willing to do the same.
Update:
In the comments, Dan alerts us to the date that this article originated on. April 1, 2005 so I am going to assume it is a April Fool’s joke from last year. A very good one at that. I wasn’t able to eat my chicken fingers for lunch because of this damn article.
