All of you making jokes should be ashamed. When anyone feels compelled to kill themselves, it's not a loving joke. Stop trying to be edgy and stop being an starfish. If you wouldn't say it to their family, I don't believe it should be said at all. Unkind thoughts should stay inside your head, where they can't harm anyone but you.

that bleeding heart bullstuff right there is why he killed himself. he wanted people like you who are stupid enough to pity his non issue, to pity him.
it encourages this kind of stuff from future spazzes.

if i let them know right now that when they die, they wont get a sympathetic concern from me, i may actually save one.

so damn you cappy, you are responsible for causing handicap Self Delete.

they're the one who are bringing suffering to the people that loved him (aka his family, maybe people on the train), in other cases I can understand why people get sensitive, but this dumbass killed himself over people hurting him over the Internet (who won't ever get to meet or know him)
I feel no sympathy for this guy

[*FacePalm*]

Oh, now I get it.

.... i do feel this
i reblog posts about the SJ stuff thats going on in the world but i know id be chastized if i had brought up how unhealthy it is spawning so many arguments and how doing so, no matter if they're the sucessor or not, will go unnoticed by the people you're fighting for and leave both sides unhappy.
like i wouldnt bother to argue with bisjac about feminism whether i'm right or wrong - i know he wouldn't budge and id just come off as annoying or a stick in the mud so forget, i'd rather be chill with people. at least they might listen later on as opposed to me yelling at them out of nowhere

but for the sake of making my point ill give you this experience
i was in a denny's one night after junior prom like last year, and i was eating with a couple friends and as we walked outside we saw a fight, but one of the guys in the fight took out a knife and stabbed the other like 4 or 5 times and he died etc etc

so for like 3 months after that i kept thinking about it whenever i tried to sleep and do things, and one day i heard my friend sam (who was with me when it happened), make a joke to another guy who wanted to fight him, saying "alright bruh but no knives aloud"
that made me laugh and it actually made the whole situation and the dead guy into a lighter less heavy situation and i didnt have many thoughts about the incident

im not saying every incident of death is funny, but if you can laugh about something dark, it can be a therapeutic thing

This isn't even a good example in all honesty.

You didn't know the guy who got stabbed to death so you weren't even sad about the fact he died. You just didn't want to watch him get killed. You're just coping with being the bystander of a bad experience, not a loss.

It's like those same people who try to excuse 9/11 jokes as "coping." None of their loved ones died so they don't have anything to get over, really. Just make the joke or don't and not make it about yourself all the time.

Okay what kept you up at night about 9/11?

I honestly could have worded that better but I'm curious

I dunno
A terrorist attack on someone's own country seems like something that would be pretty frightening if you ask me

That's fear for your own well-being, not any empathy that you relate to 9/11 survivors or families.

idk the fact that over 3000 innocent people died..

the fact that an attack on the homeland could happen at any time in any place..

mayb the fact that 3000 families that year had an empty seat at thanksgiving..

You can sympathize and feel sorry, but empathizing is a whole different thing.

Whatever you felt is maybe a fraction of what those families feel.

So my point is making jokes about 9/11 isn't some valid coping mechanism to compare to actual loss if the only thing you have to cope with is fear.

so the fact that people feel worse about it than you invalidates any feelings you have on the subject..

i bet YOU were involved in the attacks you towel head freak!!

It invalidates the concept of coping with something that effects you in a almost non-existent way by comparison.

See if my family died in that Peschwar terrorist attack I wouldn't make jokes like this, lol.

brother

coping isnt exclusively for people who lost loved ones
thats a stuffty mentality you have that only people who lost someone they loved or personally were connected with have the right to feel bad
