TheHulk Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 http://www.myfoxtampabay.com/dpp/news/national/new_york_mall_suicide_040909 I know this isn't anything to be laughing at, but I still found myself doing so upon reading this part: ...sitting in a massage chair with a sign reading, "sit back and relax," when the woman landed on him.
Homeboy23 Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Wow. Its sad, I have been hearing more and more stories of suicides since people have been losing their jobs.
Goliath513 Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 As odd as the story may be, suicide is no laughing matter - especially when you have seen the first hand effects of it on the community. There was a suicide in my dorm just three nights ago by student.
Kalepi_Konei Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 suicide is no laughing matter Oh but it is when the person lands on someone else. In all seriousness I was waiting for this to happen to someone, I kinda expected it to happen eventually. But I feel sorry for the lady that she jumped, and for the kid who she landed on.
texashorns82492 Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 No matter what happens, suicide isn't funny. I find it pretty disturbing that you would laugh at that.
Kalepi_Konei Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 Trust me I find it pretty disturbing I laughed at it too, but it was for a mere second, I didn't like or nothing like that, I just got a quick kick out of it, then I got serious.
paintballer Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 You know, In todays world, Laughing lightens up horrible things like this, And I d encourage it!
alomar Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 You know, In todays world, Laughing lightens up horrible things like this, And Id encourage it! I agree, and wont express my opinion on suicide. Never turns out well.
odene497 Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 People deal with things differently. Even the most morbid events can have random aspects of humor. Sure, this is a tragic event, but the whole "sit back and relax" thing sure throws a bit of a spin on things.

Sure, this is a tragic event, but the whole "sit back and relax" thing sure throws a bit of a spin on things. I agree with this. Of course suicide isn't a joking matter, but you can't help and chuckle a bit for that part at least. It was just a very ironic thing that happend within a horrible situation.
PKI Jizzman Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 No matter what happens, suicide isn't funny.I find it pretty disturbing that you would laugh at that. I find the Drinky Crow Show hilarious! And that's pretty much about a suicidal alcohol and sex addicted crow and his monkey friend! It sucks, but I think it's kind of funny. He's sitting in a chair that says "Sit back and relax" and a woman falls on him.
texashorns82492 Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 Ironic? Yes. Funny? I don't believe so. I'm very sorry if what I said seemed rude. I just don't think the situation should be taken in a humorous manner. It was not my intention to come off that way.
