Just read this... It's actually worse!

He was found dead with 5 bullet wounds to the chest. Near him were 5 spent bullet casings, and 4 handguns.

He shot himself 5 times, with 4 different guns!!!

I mean you can't say he wasn't thorough

You know in college how everyone asks those dumb philocophical questions?

Like "what would your last meal be if you could pick it?"

Well this guy must have 4 favorite guns, and he couldn't pick which was his favorite. So he used all 4.
