for them the long pain of life overrides the short pain of shotgun

It's the pain of an optimist losing all hope and deciding suicide is a better fate than being miserable all the time. Pessimists typically don't have this problem because they knew life sucks all along.

>>25532589 >a shotgun Does it seem less intimidating to you if done with a gun?

Shotgun is one of the most painless ways to go

>>25532743 I know a guy who fucked up the shotgun suicide. His whole bottom jaw was blown off and he looked like a horrible freak. This was in the early 90s so facial reconstruction was a total joke. He did this in high school btw and had to live his whole youth looking like that. He was about 3 or 4 years older than me. I used to see him around and that poor motherfucker was actually choosing life after that level of disfigurement by his own hand. Life is weird.

>>25532722 Even so, that sort of direct reasoning doesn't slay the survival instinct. Suicides are really something else. I think they're the most fascinating human beings imaginable. >>25532731 Suicides are definitely optimists. They're sure they can end the pain. >>25532743 As far as we can tell, if done right. >>25532756 SI is a hell of a drug. Fuck, I really want to continue this discussion but I'm losing the captcha war. I'll check back monday

>>25532764 I still regret his death.
