American National Dies in Computer Shop After Arguing Online With GF – Manila – Photograph by ABS-CBN
MANILA, Philippines – If this week hasn’t had a few strange stories about American nationals living in the Philippines, this one seems to have fallen in the “wtf” category.

47-year-old John Frederick Warnaca, a Fresno, California native, has died while arguing with his girlfriend online inside a computer shop in Manila.

Police say that owners of the shop informed them that Warnaca came into the shop at approximately 2 p.m. – but by 3:30 p.m. Warnaca was leaning backwards on his seat and not moving.

auto-erotic aneurism? As in he gave himself a 'stroke'?

 

Nope, it was definately a Facebook related death. The silent killer!

But on a serious note, realize someone is a joke when it sounds silly :p

 

I don't know where you them from Dave, but they keep me smiling!

 

Thank goodness I am in PI it was close to 90 today and I needed no aircon! Heck of a difference for a guy who grew up in Chicago area. Been here d*mn near 20 years! Hurry up what ya waiting for the weather here is great year round and no more snow, salt or icy windows to deal with!
