A scientist in a remote outpost in Antarctica plunged a kitchen knife into his colleague because he was fed up with the man telling him the endings of books, say investigators.

Sergey Savitsky, 55, and Oleg Beloguzov, 52, were avid readers to pass the lonely hours during four harsh years together.

I had it wrong, it was The Empire Strikes Back, not ROTJ.

“It is believed to the first time a man has been charged with a murder bid in Antartica.”

I wonder if there’s a job opening for Sheriff down there.

I wouldn’t want to know the endings of the Harry Potter books either, before reading them.

My ex- Gf read the book about the Antartica outpost scientist who was evac’d by plane due to a serious medical condition.

The book MOSTLY tells how boring it is at those outposts that married women and men started shagging each other, cheating on their spouses back home. And any information such as books, movies etc are traded like currency.

Sergey Savitsky, 55, and Oleg Beloguzov, 52, were avid readers to pass the lonely hours during four harsh years together.

The latest tome by Yuri Testikov probably pushed him over the edge.

"If they were reading Russian novels, what's the big deal? They all end the same."

I'm surprised they were able to find the end of a Russian novel.

I heard the original title for “War and Peace” was “War: What is it Good For?”.

American Novel Endings: Boy and girl get together
French Novel Endings: Boy and girl break up
Russian Novel Endings: Boy and girl make long speeches for 1000 pages then die

Best answer on thread.

My comment was going to be about us Texans having a concept of "some folks just need killing", but yours was better.
