How about a murder made to look like a suicide?

Have any of you posting these jokey encouragements to Wolfie to top himself, had any experience of suicide in your own families? If you had, you will know that it can rip a family apart. My father's brother killed himself some 30 years ago, and the long term effect on both his widow and children has been pretty foul. My mother's mother also had a relative hang himself in her guest bedroom. That man's son, my great uncle Walter, though possessed of a wonderful dry wit, was also emotionally damaged for life. Wolfie is probably an emotionally secure strong young man with an excellent sense of humour, but we do not know that, and a lot of young men do kill themselves. Suicide is the most incredibly selfish act, for that reason I do not worry much about the person who does it, but the mess of heartache and guilt that it creates for those they leave behind is serious.

So it's not that it's poor taste, it's about being responsible on the internet. Yayawoman is right. This is not a joking matter.

Who said it was a joke? Honestly I could care less. I have had three friends kill themselves. One because the other did...so they say. All you can do is shake your head and call them idiots.

I'm not for suicide, but if someone kills themselves...oh well. The world is screwed up and so is the human race. The sooner we are gone the better. Geez, when did I become so bitter?

Right, because if an off-hand joke on an internet forum causes him to off himself, he was clearly destined to stay on this planet for a long time. (You think we're the only ones who'd get to him?)

(And yes, thanks, someone I was close to killed himself when he was a kid. Members of my family had miscarraiges, too, am I supposed to stop making dead baby jokes?)

We must be responsible on the internet, because it's Serious Fucking Business.

For some reason, I crack up every time somebody posts something like this on the boards.

"You're no better than the people who made fun of our kind in high school!"

You're right. I'm no better than them. Neither are you. Soaking up whatever abuse you got while going through the school system, only to release it later in the form of passive-aggressive, self-superior commentary on an internet message board makes you no better than the cheerleader who didn't invite you to her homecoming party.

We're all jerks. Learn to live with it.
