Nighthawk Posted December 31, 2005 Report Posted December 31, 2005 Who actually kills themself over being dumped? I mean, theoretically, ok, but I've never heard of it happening.
The Niggardly King Posted January 1, 2006 Report Posted January 1, 2006 I often think teenagers overexaggerate their problems. Of course they do, when you go through something for the first few times... it's going to be a big deal.
BruiserKC Posted January 1, 2006 Report Posted January 1, 2006 Suicide should never be an answer...it's the easy way out and life ain't always easy. At the same time, it's a lot easier for me to say it now, being quite a few years removed from my teen years. For teenagers it can be pretty tough...for the first 12 years or so we're pretty sheltered for the most part. The teen years give us the first real taste of the outside world, the world we will enter soon without the protection of our parents. For some it's a huge shock, some adapt better than others.
RepoMan Posted January 2, 2006 Report Posted January 2, 2006 That and a lot pepole between the ages of 12 and 18 tend to be petty assholes making Jr and High school suck even more. I'll be honest and say everytime someone said high school was the best years of your life part of me woundered if I should just off my self then. If more pepole made teenagers realize high school if just an annoying phase of your life were your thrown togeather with pepole based on nothing but geographic proximity instead of pretending it going to be the best years of your life less teenagers would be fucked up.
Nighthawk Posted January 2, 2006 Report Posted January 2, 2006 It's the best years of your life for people like Al Bundy. Birth to 12 are the best years of your life.
Corey_Lazarus Posted January 2, 2006 Report Posted January 2, 2006 I would say the year-and-a-half since I've graduated has been the best time of my life thus far. Better than when I was a little kid, better than elementary school, WAAAAAY better than middle school, and better than all four years of high school combined. I'm with Repo: Less teens would hate themselves and their lives if they were flat-out told that high school is a transitionary phase that's just there to help you prepare for the real world. Not even academically, since you'll never use HALF of what you learned in school (I can't even remember a damn thing about any form of math beyond basic algebra), but socially. People are assholes, find the few people that aren't assholes and become friends with them, or adapt and be the biggest asshole you can be so that you'll succeed. ...of course that's kinda not the message I'd want to send my kids, but it'd certainly help 'em get through high school.
Ravenbomb Posted January 2, 2006 Report Posted January 2, 2006 Anybody ever see this documentary called "The Self Made Man"? They showed it at a film festival here a couple months ago. This independently wealthy, apparent control freak, kindof old guy (not like 80 or anything) had prostate cancer, so he killed himself. The bulk of it was the video tape he'd made to his family where he layed out why it was completely logical and a good idea for him to kill himself (which, crazy enough, didn't sound unreasonable at the time) interspliced with reactions of the family a while after the suicide. It was actually really good. Oh, yeah, uh, suicide sucks!
Ted the Poster Posted January 2, 2006 Report Posted January 2, 2006 Didn't he die because he slept lying down for the first time? Yeah, that's definitely a good one.
Guest Haiku Posted January 2, 2006 Report Posted January 2, 2006 teens killing themselves because their girlfriends dumped them cheer up, emo kid!
The Czech Republic Posted January 2, 2006 Report Posted January 2, 2006 Haiku is so so so overdone. Isn't there another style of poetry we can run into the ground? Let's do sonnets.
Nighthawk Posted January 2, 2006 Report Posted January 2, 2006 I expressed similar sentiment in the motherrape thread. I suggest hip hop poetry. Like the guy on Oz.
The Czech Republic Posted January 2, 2006 Report Posted January 2, 2006 Beat poetry. I'll grab my bongo drums.
Nighthawk Posted January 2, 2006 Report Posted January 2, 2006 Ain't that my cigarette hangin' off the tip a yo lip?

Guest Haiku Posted January 2, 2006 Report Posted January 2, 2006 failed at my gimmick Slayer says give it to him My password is "Hobbes"
MrRant Posted January 2, 2006 Report Posted January 2, 2006 I demand someone start a limerick gimmick.
Corey_Lazarus Posted January 3, 2006 Report Posted January 3, 2006 My friend Eric used to write a shitload of killer limericks in high school. And now, the Bukkaiku: Kneel down before me I now must unzip my pants Pull out and then splooge
Corey_Lazarus Posted January 4, 2006 Report Posted January 4, 2006 I'm surprised nobody's made a post of nothing but the following statement: DON'T DO IT
Red Hot Thumbtack In The Eye Posted February 5, 2006 Report Posted February 5, 2006 related http://thesmartmarks.com/article_1841.shtml
The Czech Republic Posted February 5, 2006 Report Posted February 5, 2006 I think if anybody commits suicide that they were probably a waste of space anyway. People who say this come off as being very dumb. I cannot stress this enough.
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted February 5, 2006 Report Posted February 5, 2006 My depressive attitude is more about not caring if I live or die rather than wanting to off myself.
The Czech Republic Posted February 5, 2006 Report Posted February 5, 2006 Seeing as that's basically how I feel as well, I really should be exploiting this aspect of my persona with more destructive behavior. The hell am I waiting for, anyway.
