Dump-O-Gram

1:15 PM -- Reuters reports on an entrepreneur with a greater cause:

  • Business is booming for a Berlin entrepreneur's unique service -- delivering break-up messages for a fee.

    Bernd Dressler, who charges 50 euros ($68) to tell people they have been dumped, says he has helped end 200 relationships in the last 11 months.

Wow. A Creep Facilitator! I smell Nobel Peace Prize.

  • "I almost never get invited in for a coffee," he told the Berliner Morgenpost newspaper on Monday. "Most of the time they're totally surprised."

Surprise! Your life is over! Say... Is that coffee I smell?

  • Breaking the bad news only takes about three minutes and often leaves the message recipients in a state of shock, said Dressler, a trained economist.

A trained jerk is more like it. Something tells me Dressler didn't get hugged enough as a child.
