NEW YORK (AP) — Early this morning witnesses said a man, who is known as “The Fly” on internet blog iBankCoin, was struck by lightning–after cursing the stock gods for bestowing him with “reckless investments.” This all happened around 10:30 am near The Four Seasons Hotel, where “The Fly” has been known to loiter.
Bob Lobabobdobo from Queens said he saw “The Fly” throw a giant ceramic jar on the ground, yelling to the sky “you bastards, you call this winship, down 3% for the day–stupid sh*ts?!” Mr. Lobabobdobo said after that he heard “thunderous music from the skies”, followed by a bolt of electricity so intense, it turned “this deranged man into a heap of ashes.”
Another eyewitness said “The Fly” was laughing hysterically–looking at his iPhone– just before throwing the mysterious ceramic jar on the ground.
His ashes have been placed into a small plastic cup– and will be put inside of a pineapple coffin for proper burial this weekend.
