Two Georgia men survived a gruesome suicide attempt Friday after cutting their own arms off with a saw, reported Atlanta's Journal Constitution.
The 40 and 41-year-old men managed to remove three of their four arms, cutting them about six inches about their wrists, Atlanta Police Major Lane Hagin told the Journal.
The men left a suicide note with the manager of their apartment building saying they were killing themselves because they were recently diagnosed with HIV and their business had failed, according to police.
The men are in stable condition at a local hospital and will undergo psychiatric tests, a police spokesman said.

No wonder their business failed. You measure twice and cut once.

Why didn't they just cut off their "Johnsons"?
Eating, driving, writing etc. Just a thought.

Some may laugh. But what despair these men must have been in. I agree. I don't see anything funny about it. I will pray for them.

I think they might need to be cutting something, I just can't figure what.

Precisely. Most of them are young women, but there are a few men too. They even have internet 'clubs.'

Every day the news is full of craziness. I read of somebody going around the country holding castration live shows. Sick."Wow, that's a GREAT act!"

To them
If they really wanted to die, why did they not just go for the throat? I mean if they can cut an arm off, surely they could sling a wide-open chainsaw at their throat.
Did they saw their genitals off too? Or was that 'to gross' for them /sarc>

Maybe an experimental overdose of thalidomide is in order. Much less messy
