CULTURE: Love is Blind (Drunk. Also Stupid.)

You love someone, you have a few drinks to get up the courage to tell them so, and then leap onto your new motorbike when they invite you over. A tragic romantic story comes true.

Shaun Brindley, 34, had declared his undying love for his close friend Susan Crossland in a late-night telephone call. And he promised he would be at her house in ten minutes.

In a cruel twist, the father-of-two was already dead when Ms Crossland sent him a text message saying: "Your time is up".

Mr Brindley, who had been drinking to pluck up the courage to tell Ms Crossland how he felt, crashed into a van illegally parked at the side of a 40mph road, while riding at 66mph, and died at the scene from massive injuries.

What goes through your head after you bounce off of the van and shock is making a blurry mess of your thoughts?

people who ride and drink get what they deserve.
sorry if I sound like a heartless asshole, but people doing stupid shit like this make motorcycle riders look bad.

I do feel sorry for the woman and his family. A sensless death is hard to accept and deal with.

Well now at least it can remain a semi-romantic gesture that'll live blissfully in the sense of what could have been-instead of reality killing all that great lovey dovey shit. Say he actually made over there: three months later she leaves him cuz he drinks too often and shes been busy screwing his best friend. At least now its safe to assume they would have been perfect for each other. God I'm a cynic.

The fact that I find that really funny means I'm officially a part of the detached, uncaring internet-raised generation.
