The over-weight and out of shape guy who owned the house had apparently decided that having a half-million dollar house meant that he couldn’t afford to hire someone to clean out his gutters. Now he was dead with what looked to me like a broken neck after the ladder had slipped. He’d taken the plunge into his fancy landscaping–complete with rock garden. But hey, his fucking gutters were clean. . Diana Rowland
About This Quote

A man gets his heart broken and the first thing he does is go out to buy a little trinket to cheer himself up. Then he decides to clean out his gutters and the ladder breaks. It’s a stupid way to die. He’s going to have a lot of explaining to do when he gets to heaven.

In this case, the man falls from a ladder, breaks his neck and dies. I don’t know what he was doing cleaning out his gutters but I do know that being an asshole is not going to get him into heaven.
