Exam:”The Chilean case was a case in fact for unnecessary publication. I can see some emotionally volatile teenager imitating this.”

I don’t know this Chilean thing but can guess. But teens copy everything; Jackass must have had emergency room staff just spewing. The Twilight series – even I know about a group of local fools that think sucking each other’s blood is cool.

My kids at their first teen Oz party and a dude covered in petrol locked himself in his car and went up in flames.

How should we talk about it? Don’t the ones that achieved death deserve sympathy? Anyone copying them was depressed so that is what some awareness should go in to?

Romany (where were you?) and Exam… what do you say if a person calls saying they want to kill themselves? Do they ring already having decided the how and when of it? What makes them stop to make a call?

Had a teen here recently really upset because her GP told her she was suicidal and told her parents… The fool annoyed me no end, planting a seed like that.

Ah Romany's just dropped in again to remind us all she lives in China!

Great to see you fitted in a mention to you being in China Romany. You never disappoint.

Hey, did I mention I'm in China! 4 years now!

Piper,

'Knowledge gets you kicked out of gardens so some people don’t like it?'
Is that carnal knowledge? Yeah I'm slow.

'Jackass must have had emergency room staff just spewing.'
Haha. Yeah they must!

Runner,

'teenagers have been encouraged to experiment with drugs, sex and alcohol.'
Man, I was never encouraged. I must have missed that. BTW alcohol is a drug. Hey do you drink coffee? C'mon!

individual,

'In most cases the blame lies fair & square with those left behind. '

Oh come on. You're kidding yourself. The 'blame' lies with the person doing it. Did you tell those family and friends 'it's really all your fault' after their loved one committed suicide. Nice one!

examinator,

Hey imagine if I'd have gotten on to your crisis line when I was younger. I'm sure it wouldn't have ended well. All that pompous judgement would have definitely pushed me over the edge. Actually maybe the world would have been a nicer place huh? But according to individual, it'd be your fault too, and my family and friends'. Cool! Do you have anyone to hand over to if you get a personality clash?

benk,

'This happens where other people fantasise about how they could kill themselves and everyone would say such nice things about them and would be soooo sorry for any meanness.

I know that it sounds mean, but when someone kills themself, others need to avoid getting too sentimental about the person who died.'

BINGO! We shouldn't encourage martyrs.

H,
tis better to be silent and be thought perhaps a fool that to open your mouth and remove all doubt. That's four consecutive times your criticism is contrary to the what I wrote. You are confirming my view that you can't comprehend complex thoughts.
I won't respond anymore to you on the grounds that one shouldn't argue with an idiot because they'll drag me down to their level and beat me with experience.

Houel:”BINGO! We shouldn't encourage martyrs.”

Why the hell not? I say bring them back, and Berserkers and I think there should be a Spanish Inquisition soon. Jeez we got bloody soft aye.

These people that complain about the world being overpopulated and then do everything they can to keep all people around for as long as possible. MAKE UP YOUR MIND!

So what’s eating you this morning Houel? I think it’s cool that Romany is in China and I’m sure I mention every few minutes that I run a rehab for rugrats. Wish more people would mention personal circumstances; it would make it easier for me to make use of what they know.

Today I need a child sexual abuse counselor and someone who knows lots about depression triggers and someone who can explain deformed baby skulls to me. Oh and a window treatment specialist… I’m thinking blinds.

examinator,

'That's four consecutive times your criticism is contrary to the what I wrote.'

Please outline them. I didn't address any argument you made on this topic, so how could I contradict or miss-comprehended anything?

Don't worry though, we did get it. You're the altruistic counsellor that people should be more like...

'You are confirming my view that you can't comprehend complex thoughts.'

Yeah but that's where you're wrong. Unless you believe you're the only one on OLO that has complex thoughts, because I can understand everyone else. See I knew you were pompous and arrogant. Cant be you can it?

Piper,

'So what’s eating you this morning Houel?'

Nothing. That's just my normal demeanour. Where have you been?

'I think it’s cool that Romany is in China'
So does she. Hey, did I mention she's in China?

'I’m sure I mention every few minutes that I run a rehab for rugrats.'

Yeah but I like you. You're one of the only ones who I like. You and Col. That davidf seems ok too. I used to like Ginx, especially after someone called her 'the vile Ginx'. And I like SJF, everyone thinks she's serious but she just plays a part like me and I find her funny.

I can safely say you don't read as someone wanting to big note themselves like Romany and Exam. You don't judge people like them either.

'Wish more people would mention personal circumstances'

Yeah but if you do, people use it against you. They use the info to get at ya. I don't like people getting at me. Like, since anti has said he broke up with his missus, CJ hounds him about being lonely and not getting a shag and uses the info to put him down all the time. Especially if you don't fit into the clique, it's better to keep a low profile

Shucks Houel man, thanks. You know it’s mutual though aye. I get personal information being used as a weapon thing. I’m just bloody brave is all.[grin]

And I have been out, since you’re askin’ – I went to the doctors and he talked to me for ages in Polish, I don’t speak Polish so I don’t know how to tell him that I have no idea what he is saying to me. I got legal drugs though, fair trade.

And freakier still I just advised someone about suicide as I was writing this, I looked up and said to darling foster child “let me know where you are at all times and if you get upset txt someone, not me though cause I don’t have a mobile, and if you’re going to commit suicide let me know first so I don’t waste time looking for you”. Tell ya, my face is gonna be red…

Hey Houel if I find out you’re a window treatment salesman in a few years I’m going to be seriously aggravated.
