Fuck you. The internet and assholes are just fine the way they are.

All joking aside, depression blows.

What is tougher is people around you have depression of all levels and you don't know it because people pretend they are better than they really are to show they aren't weak. Not to also mention that anyone who does joke about depression either has a really happy life or is just trollin'.

Going to step in here and just issue words of advice to people participating in this thread.

1) Stay classy

2) Stay classy even if others don't

Also, Tehra won the thread.


Sound advice.

I was just thinking about the movie "What Dreams May Come" in it, the main character dies, and his wife kills herself on earth...which ends up sending her to hell, so he has to go back and rescue her soul.

Earlier someone said that suicide is illegal because that serves as an extra deterrent. Do you think the Judeo-Christian viewpoint that people who commit suicide go to hell might also be a deterrent?

This also got me thinking about two events that happened in my high school. To give a background, I went to an all-boys, Catholic, college-preparatory (read: super competitive) high school.

One kid in my class tried to kill himself by jumping out of a 4th story window in school. That was a really fucked up day to be in school...principal got on the PA and was basically sobbing. Poor kid didn't die though, he landed on his feet and paralyzed himself from the waste down.

About a year after that, a kid who was a year ahead of me hung himself with a belt. We all had to go to his funeral. One of the most depressing events ever. I'll never forget it because my English teacher spoke at the funeral and basically said that the kid threw his life away.

Yes. Bias? Experience.

Or you can just admit you were once again talking out of your ass.


"Cite a source"? Really?

You're launching into a spiteful moralistic tirade - repeatedly - complete with profane name-calling rather than just letting it drop. This is consistent with your behavior.

Didn't you just say that my judgements about your woman are "bias paraded around as fact"? Except I passed my judgement based on what she said and did, and stopped there - I didn't launch into profanity and childish namecalling. Pot meet kettle.

You are corroborating my interpretation of your woman's post, which is that this is the sort of passive-aggressive self-victimization which is characteristic of you and your woman's behavior: say something inappropriate, then cry that the reaction has breached the rules of etiquette, so you can claim moral superiority while engaging in name-calling and profanity like a small child. You do it all the time. The alternative, of course, would simply be to take what I said in stride and move on.

The notion of suicide as evil or morally incorrect is not culturally universal. It's a valid question why the belief arose in Judeo-Christian culture, but I don't agree with it. I don't think the belief that suicides go to hell is a deterrent specific to suicide any more than it's directed at any sort of behavior that the faith arbitrarily finds unacceptable.

I logged on before work to tell you this one thing Ethan.

Your life is about to become very interesting.

Enjoy the ego death.

He'll still have an ego. I'm fairly certain that's all he has.


I can't imagine how a person gets to be the type to see or hear about an attempted suicide and their response is "You attention whore you."

Maybe they should be the ones killing themselves.

It is how one hears, not whether one hears.

You misinterpreted what she said and replied based on your incorrect assumptions. You would think that someone with such a severe social handicap as yourself would recognize your faults in dealing with others and not respond until others validated your conclusions regarding her post.

Quit trying to pass off shit you find in cookies as a legitimate response.


You're a douche about someone who killed themselves, when someone ELSE just lost someone from suicide, and then not only did you not stop being a douche, you put it into overdrive.

Boggles my mind.

Kind of interesting how your callous tough-guy talk washes away when white knighting takes center stage.

I didn't mock her loss.

This, in turn, is your assumption: that I was mistaken. Yet Iggy's response corroborated my initial judgement, which was that the intent was to be passive-aggressive.

I replied to elaborate on my reasoning. What is the goal in continuing this line of discussion? You want to think I'm a douche because I called it like I saw it? Fine, do that; but there doesn't seem to be any point in this back-and-forth.

Callous tough guy talk?

Except for you, people treat different situations differently, so you shouldn't be surprised.

People are interesting.
