so I don't feel sorry for him, not one bit. call me coldhearted, but stupid a$$holes don't deserve pity.
How about we call you stupid and judgmental instead? I suppose you know everything about this guy's mental health history, hmmmm?

well, humans tend to be like that, and, as much as I don't like it, I am a human, so I would definitely have a tendency to be stupid and judgmental. but, I know he had a tendency to get into messes easily - and while there is nothing really wrong with that, he still could have a bit of decency and spare his mother the sight of his brains splattered all over the place.
I know I would.

Ah, I see. So if you were depressed and not thinking clearly you'd simultaneously have the the ability to think clearly. Do you also have the ability to stop being silly and walk if both your legs were cut off?

you don't have to be thinking clearly, and still have a bit of decency. anyway, this is kind of pointless so I'll be bailing out. guess I needed to be reminded why I don't really join discussions that are not related to tech stuff.

Because you suck at debate? FFS SubJeff is making a rare good point and you backpedal as soon as someone disagrees with you. Disappointing.

well, I certainly don't excel at it. so leaving it to people that do seems like a logical choice.

Or maybe you could not say stupid shit and then cry over your hurt feefees when someone calls you on it.
voodoo47 on 2/2/2013 at 22:03
whatever makes you happy.
ok, enough, time to go fix some more Thief stuff.

Yes, you do that. Go ahead and run away at the first sign of opposition.
Hooplehead.

what the hell are you talking about
Am I misremembering you being nearly deaf? Anyway I learned sign thirty years ago because I was friends with a deaf couple so I only knew of the school and not any renting of dorms. Having lost touch with them and with nobody to practice with I doubt I could carry on a decent conversation anymore. A lot of my signing at the time had substitutes of spelling out words rather than the single sign.
And sure folks, suicides aren't thinking clear, but I understand the anger as well. Nothing hurts worse than the loss of a child and in suicide the self recrimination is well neigh unbearable. You want them back and they have denied you that forever. You don't even have the chance to help them. Maybe you never did. You'll never know now though. All you have after the grief steps (of which anger is one) is thinking how old they would be now and what they would have done with the promise you know they held. And just missing them really bad sometimes.
