He should have taken "no" for an answer.

Police in Mesa, Ariz. arrested a man after his girlfriend said he beat her when she told him she was too sick to have sex.

Jose Perez, 33, is accused of beating the woman shortly after 7 a.m. on Sunday after he arrived intoxicated, police said.

According to the victim, Perez threatened to kill her if she called police, so she pretended to go to sleep and snuck over to a neighbor's home when Perez had passed out and phoned the authorities, the Arizona Republic reported.

Aggressive, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, asshole!

1. "Snuck?" Really?

Don't newspapers and their websites employ copy editors anymore?

Anyway, I hope this guy does some prison time for this. And it goes without saying that this woman needs a new boyfriend.

12. Um, the usage of 'snuck' is correct.

It's a real word, past tense of 'sneak'. It used to be nonstandard, but Collins/Random House dictionaries certainly list it.

16. Slang and non-standard English are fine in their place.

But I'll take my newspaper articles in standard English, thank you.

[AtheistCrusader]

17. It's a late 19th century word. Language evolves. It is not slang.

Slang and Informal are not the same thing.

[Tien1985]

18. Merriam-Webster doesn't list it as non-standard.

I think that particular battle may have been lost.

There are a number of people bemoaning it in the comments there, though.

20. The new thing that drives me crazy is the

lack of adjectives. It is no longer "Syrian fighters" but "Syria fighters" I mean really, can't they squeeze just one more letter onto the headline?

2. He's so tough!

3. I hope there's an "ex-boyfriend" in her future...

Class act!

6. You need to work on your humor. nt

7. Classy. . .really classy. . .and sexist too, five post charlie

You make a sexist sex joke in a thread about beating your GF.

Enjoy your stay.

[LiberalLoner]

15. Humor that depends on accepting that females owe males sex at any time

Of the male's choosing.

Exactly the attitude that the drunk abuser was displaying.

That post really was not funny and made me uncomfortable.

[Tien1985]

11. Do you realize that this is

Creepy and obnoxious?

At best, it is a really thoughtless joke.

At worst, you don't take "no" for an answer and keep pushing, which would be pretty damn despicable.

13. Horns.aiff

Fail.

14. Got news for you there, Sparky,

the problem isn't the "headache." The problem will be found in your nearest mirror.

8. Ah..yes...I often use that line on Women. "Hi, I'm drunk and mean and want to force myself on you"

They reply: "Oh Darling..be still my foolish heart"

[Nanjing to Seoul]

9. Nothing gets a woman more turned on than being sick and seeing her man drunk and passing out.

[BlueJazz]

10. Seriously..I know that some people have a dependence on abuse (Hurt me, I deserve it)

but every time I see or hear about it, my heart breaks a little more, thinking about how kind, sweet and wonderful life and partnership SHOULD be...sigh..

[Snake Plissken]

19. He's a keeper

for sure

21. Whatever happened to

Shakespeare's quote "it increaseth the desire but taketh away the performance?"

[Wernothelpless]

22. Why is this story allowed here?

Look I am totally confused ... A week ago a man beat his wife to death when she said she was divorcing him ... He's an executive at JP MORGAN CHASE and the story was locked moments after I posted it ...

Now one might think an executive at JP MORGAN CHASE who murders his wife down might be news ... not here?

WTF? ... ... This place makes no sense to me at all sometimes ...
