Well, this is one way to off yourself. Wouldn't be my preferred choice.

It would be pretty fast, and probably wouldn't hurt much (certainly not for very long).  But really messy.

Probably couldn't get ahead in life and reached the end of his rope.  Happens to the best of us.

People don't even have the decency to off themselves respectably, any more. But I guess the more spectacularly you do it, the more infamy you get from the internets.

That is all. *expletive deleted*ck you all, eat *expletive deleted*it, and die in a fire. I have considered writing here a long parting section dedicated to each poster, but I have decided, at length, against it. *expletive deleted*ck you all and Hail Satan.
