Why do people even want to go to Dubai of all places?

There's literally nothing there you can't find somewhere that isn't also in the middle of a god forsaken desert and built by slave labor.

[-] lemick24@lemmy.world 31 points 2 years ago

That's also Vegas but with mafia instead of slaves

[-] XTornado@lemmy.ml 12 points 2 years ago

But you can at least have drinks and shows and...idk...

Hwæt?

What sort of sex tourism is there in Dubai‽

Repressed women who think letting you see their eyes is a strip tease?

Brainwashing. My dad was with a group on vacation there (all 50+). We had a hard time convincing him that not everything is as great as they say there and that they left a lot of unsavory details out.

A woman willing to punch her husband for saying no, is probably better off not going to Dubai anyway.

[-] Stanwich@lemmy.world 39 points 2 years ago

We could start a go fund me to send her...........for science.

I don't know, my interest is piqued now.

[-] tacosanonymous@lemm.ee 96 points 2 years ago

What a weird article. She was mad and punched him in the nose. That’s it. No mention whether he hit his head after falling. So, I’m led to believe this lady can one punch people to death.

[-] Jiggle_Physics@lemmy.world 68 points 2 years ago

Yeah they call it a punch, but his nose and teeth were broken, and he died. I am gonna speculate she hit him with an object, or got him in a compromised position that allowed her to wail on his face for a while.

Maybe she's bald from training too hard too.

Imagine wanting to go there AND fucking killing your husband for saying "no"

[-] ABCDE@lemmy.world 46 points 2 years ago

Well, now you're definitely not going.

[-] radioactiveradio@lemm.ee 9 points 2 years ago

Well they can still have the funeral there.

It's purely a hunch, but I would bet a larger percentage of women who punch their husbands to death want to visit Dubai versus women who don't punch their husbands to death.

Jfc. I wonder how common of an occurrence it had been for her to attack him when she got angry. You don’t go from 0 to manslaughter usually.

Username checks out

This has to be the worst written article ever

[-] dylanTheDeveloper@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

It reads like severe brain damage

[-] SuddenDownpour@sh.itjust.works 13 points 2 years ago

Must have been written by the husband

[-] derpgon@programming.dev 7 points 2 years ago

This is sad, but your comment made me chuckle. I am a terrible person

[-] SuddenDownpour@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 years ago

Hey, could be worse, you could have written my comment

Pathologists of Lemmy : does most people (36y old, ...) dying from a single punch have a pre-existing condition ? Looks quite odd.

[-] alp@lemmy.zip 20 points 2 years ago

15 years ago, my taekwondo instructor punched a mugger in the chest only once, and the man's rib broke and stabbed his heart and then he died. My instructor spent spent 2 or 3 years of jailtime for the crime "unintentionally killing".

Bare knuckles to the dome can definitely kill.

[-] 567PrimeMover@kbin.social 13 points 2 years ago

Not a pathologist, but it isn't unheard of to die from a punch. It happens more often than you'd think

[-] mrnotoriousman@kbin.social 9 points 2 years ago

Not a pathologist but def if you got the right place anything can happen. As an anecdote, when I was growing up a fight started on the sidewalk I'm front of my house with some teens (not like big guys by any measure) and the guy threw one punch and the dude got knocked out. Hit him right in the temple and the dude died in the hospital after.

[-] VaultBoyNewVegas@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

Can definitely happen. I guy died in my country years ago because someone punched him outside a pub and he fell.

[-] dylanTheDeveloper@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Well I'm allergic to being punched, I swell up pretty bad

Brand new sentence? This doesn't seem common

[-] joshuanozzi@lemmy.ml 10 points 2 years ago

I … feel like she repaid him with death for saving her life. Women are barely allowed an innocuous opinion there, much less a willingness to get into a physical altercation with a man.

... and if he had, he could have punched her to death and the police would have looked the other way.
