For those of you who read QC:
This QC, specifically.
How did Pintsize tape the rope to the ceiling in the first place?
Also, if any of you have the soundtracks to "A Beautiful Mind" or "Apollo 13," both by James Horner, I'd like to get my hands on them. I don't know anyone who has the first and so far as I know only Larson Gilmore has the second. If you come across one or the other let me know.
In other (bad) news: This article doesn't surprise me in the least. Also, the main reason so few are attributed to pills is the fact that on the off chance you don't throw them up immediately or ingest too few, it takes for-fucking-ever for them to off you. That's a lot of time to change your mind and get to a hospital. Other reasons for failure: kids are too stupid to aim the gun right or open enough of the circulatory system. Hanging, on the other hand, usually works out. It's rather difficult to fuck that one up. Sometimes the incompetence of our generation makes me happy.
In response to Nikki: Overdosing on Tylenol is damn near certain to not kill you. It takes three days. It shuts down your liver and, well, why am I telling you this? Read it here. Still not as bad as aspirin. That causes stomach ulcers. You internally bleed to death because your circulatory system is busy mingling with your body's reserves of hydrochloric acid. Excruciating death, that.
Some girl my brother knew killed herself while we were at Grandview. (You may have moved by then, who knows.) But everyone used to tell me that she took a bottle of Tylenol and tape recorded herself and died. I just now realized that she obviously didn't die right away.
ReplyDeleteBut at least if you don't die when you're attempting suicide with medication you get this nice high. Actually, it's a bad high most of the time.
