Man's Soon-To-Be Fiance Cheats On Him, He Sells Engagement Ring To Buy Custom Master Chief Armor

Blue balls and beer -- story of my life, bro.

Women: they'll tear your heart out, spit in the hole, then not respond to the voicemails you leave about how much you still love her and want to work things out just so you can stay overnight one more time and steal a bunch of her underwear in retribution. Amirite, guys?! *all the guys leaving* Ya'll are lying to yourselves! Eric Smith was just about to propose to his special lil lady with a custom-designed engagement ring when he found out she was cheating on him. So he did what any self respecting Spartan would do: sold the ring on eBay and spent the proceeds having a custom suit of Master Chief armor built.

This wasn't just any costume shop suit; in fact Smith had been thinking about the ideal suit of armor for a long time but had expected to defer the purchase until later. An artist out of Detroit built him a 40-pound dark green suit made out of carbon fiber and steel. The helmet complete with an orange visor and LED's came from a master Stormtooper builder out of the Philippines. We didn't even know there was a master Stormtrooper builder in the Philippines, so clearly Smith did his homework.

Good lookin', Eric, I imagine your heart is much better protected now. Get it? Because of the whole armor thing! But seriously, she clearly wasn't worthy of a real Spartan anyways. I'm sure there are plenty of other women out there that will appreciate your new...look. Amirite, ladies? LADIES? *plays applause on boombox* Awh yeah -- go get em, Chief!

Jilted man uses engagement ring to buy full size Halo armor [dvice]

Thanks to Krame, who says he should have opted for a full suit of Shredder armor instead. Hey -- a man's choice of armor after a breakup is his own personal decision.

    First the Lord of the Rings earrings, then the fingernail art, now a Portal engagement ring made by the folks at Custom Made -- it really is turning into lady's day on Geekologie. And you know what? I say we embrace it. Maybe later we can take turns putting makeup on each ot... / Continue →

    This is Jurassic Heart (links to actual game), a dating simulator that lets you try your hand at romance with a t-rex named Taira. It's worth wasting a couple minutes if you're at work, but if you're at home you can probably find something better to do with your time. I mean,... / Continue →

    Because these days you risk being rejected and dying confused and alone if you propose with some plain-ass engagement ring, Redditor DisturbedRobot (not cool, bro) had a custom Battlestar Galactica Cylon ring made for his bride-to-be, Amy. And, because the ring had such a swee... / Continue →

  • That's brilliant, but if he sold it on Have You Seen the
    Ring
    he may have been able to buy two sets of master chief armor.

  • painweaver

    looks like hes sporting double D's under that chest piece. The rest of the costume looks cool, but damn, he should have gotten a discount for that chest...

  • T_Hood_tc

    I just emailed this to my wife and told her I hope she is paying attention.

  • Lol, spelled fiancee wrong!

  • SZMatheson

    Actually, fiance and fiancee are both semi-correct. They should really have a "é" in the place of the first/only "e."

  • Fiance is for husbands-to-be and fiancee is for brides-to-be.

  • This_Update_Sucks

    Good for him!

  • his heart looks unprotected - just look at the shape of the chest plate ! 

  • He wins in the end :'D

  • lorobird

    ...no wonder she cheated.

  • http://clubplaystation.com had the same story lol

  • Could have spent it on something more useful.
    Does that suit have boobs?

  • Vlad Usatenko

    Considering everything, in case of a zombie apocalypse hes pretty much got it covered. 

  • Apathetic88

    I am right there with his idea and had that happen just recently (would have gone with Super Shredder armor myself) and Fish, fucking spot on with your statement!! lol Time for a joke:

    Q: what's all that useless skin around a vagina?A: a woman.

    Thank you thank you, ill be here as a lurker all week.

  • lorobird

    LOL HILARIOUS!!11one!! can we plz be bros??!

  • That's how it's done! Armor looks a bit off, but he gets +1 for using Master Chief as a retaliatory force.
