Danny most recently appeared in the movie How to Lose Friends and Alienate People.

  • Could have been she would have killed him [and the daughter] like Phil Hartman’s jealous addictive wife? The times are tough, people are bitter, insane, liars and egotists.. and you must marry wisely folks.

  • i bet you a hundred bucks she yelled ‘cut’ just before she pancaked. i’ll go ahead and apologize to all the innocent bystanders that had to observe her selfish fucking act. see you in hell, babe!

  • Maybe she called someone a fag and God made her jump.

    Apparently that’s how it works these days right Wendie?

  • Gee, what a humanitarian you are censorthis. Perhaps if conservatives would grow up we would allow euthanasia for people who wish to die because of depression or illness.

  • That’s so tragic. Life is so very short. I think of people who die because of a terminal illness, then look at people who are healthy and killing themselves because they are depressed. It’s awful that she left a child behind who will grow up knowing her mother left her on purpose. Suicide if fucking selfish.

  • re; donkey

    i just don’t go for the suicide thing where more often than not, it’s your so called ‘loved ones’ that have to find you. this often includes young children, wives and parents…..to me it’s a pussy way out, but if that’s your bag donkey, you’re free to cannonball off a highrise anytime you wish. make sure your kids get to watch the fun though!! yipee.

  • re; donkey

    sorry, i just actually read your statement. so if you have a bad day you get to call kervorkian and end it all? you are one very stupid fuck donkey, whose shit i hope to not have to ever step in again.

  • People who commit suicide are generally not doing it to torment their loved ones or to take the easy way out, and choosing to interpret the act of jumping off a roof as selfish and weak is definitely the easy way out for you, censorthis. It gives you the immediate gratification of putting down another person in an attention getting way, rather than making the effort of learning about this subject and trying to understand the thoughts and feelings that would motivate someone to end their life in such an abhorrent manner.

    There are many circumstances that lead people to suicide, and there is no one explanation for every suicide. Ms. Evans was on anti-depressants, and it is a fact that some incompetent psychiatrists or even ignorant, ordinary personal physicians sometimes prescribe an antidepressant combination that produces mental confusion leading to suicide. And that is just the tip of the iceberg for the many and varied circumstances that can lead to suicide.

    It is easy to judge people as inadequate and selfish. Not so easy to extend empathy and compassion to troubled humans. Extending empathy exposes you to suffering, which a lot of people find very frightening. Easy to mock and ridicule, not so much fun to make yourself vulnerable. Fortunately, we all get a lot of opportunities to learn our lessons here in the school of earth.

  • censorthis, you have a lot of growing up to do but somehow I doubt your retarded character will develop much beyond what it is now.

    Do you want your loved one to die alone or scared shitless as they are forced to jump to their death or would you prefer for them to have a humane and peaceful way to end their life?

    Stick your head in the sand all you want like a typical Conservative, this doesn’t help the problem or make it go away. At least with a humane way for people to choose their death you have the opportunity to speak with a counselor before doing the act and possibly getting treatment.

  • Very well said Tigerlille, I was writing a comment very similar to yours earlier today when the library computer, which has a one-hour limit on the Internet, shut off before I could finish and post.
    It is despicable to call people in this type of situation selfish or like a “pussy” – I was completely shocked that people at this site could stoop so low to say things like that. I can’t believe that there wasn’t any compassion or love for a fellow human being whose been sharing this same planet with us for 30+ or so years. The real selfish people here are all of us who didn’t extent a helping hand to a person who obviously needed it. None of us did anything to improve the quality of life for this woman, or for many of the people who surround us on a daily basis. True it’s not technically our “responsibility” to care for them since we live in such a each-man-his-own type of world, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try. For goodness sake, even animals look out for each other and protect one another from harm; I hope we with our superior intellegence can do the same.

  • So well said, Tigerlille and Merdedes, and yes I agree with you Donkey Punch re: your stance on allowing people to choose to die humanely if they’re termminally, painfully, hopelessly ill and that is their clear-minded thorough choice.

  • re; tigerlillie

    you said; making the effort of learning about this subject and trying to understand the thoughts and feelings that would motivate someone to end their life in such an abhorrent manner.

    yeah, you’re right! one of my childhood friends was lucky enough to walk in after his father had blown his ‘thoughts and feelings’ all over their living room wall behind their couch. give me a fucking break.

  • I think suicide is awful & horrible. Censorthis is right. She took the easy way out & left her family behind. I think that most people who have experienced the shockwaves that ripple thru their family after a suicide (or suicide attempt) will feel compassion for those left behind. They’re the ones who suffer, they have to carry the depression their sucidal friends/ family member left behind.

  • No one here is saying that suicide ISN’T awful and horrible. But judging and ridiculing someone who is sick enough to feel the need to end their life isn’t helpful at all. If people showed more compassion for others instead of writing them off as selfish then maybe less people would feel so alone and feel the need to kills themselves

  • So everyone one else is to blame then? What the hell has happened to accountability?? The fact remains that she decided to take her own life. Do I have sympathy for someone who is so destitute that they feel suicide is the only answer. Yes, I do. But it is the family and friends who are left to deal with this terrible tragedy. And that is completely unfair to them, especially the childern.

  • People who are suicidal are not thinking in healthy, rational ways like everyone above who has posted so far. The reasons for committing suicide are as varied as the individuals who do the deed. Those of us left here can argue, contemplate, sympathize and get really pissed off about it all. The final thought for people who commit suicide is that it is the right answer at the time to a pressing problem. Everyone left behind knows it is the WRONG answer. So what good is it to argue about it? The thing to do is to stop with the arguments about how, what, right or wrong and listen to depressed people when they reach out to us so we can PREVENT suicides in the future. Unless of course they are assholes, then you load the gun for them…

  • 1st of all, censorthis I’m sorry your friend had to go through that. It is all of ours in society’s fault that we couldn’t make the world a better place for this man who desperately needed our help. We didn’t take care of our own and we should have.
    2nd of all, siggy and indigo can you please slap yourselves in the face?!?!?! Don’t you realize that this hatred that your spreading is what got these people in this position in the first place?? Take a step back and look at the cycle that you’re creating. Someone commits suicide, you reply with rude and harsh remarks, continuing the hatred in this world, leading to more people committing suicide?!! HOw do you not see it??? You say it’s selfish especially for the children, well guess what? Those children are gonna grow up one day and be adults. Are you gonna be as uncompassionate to them in a few years as you were to this woman? It’s amazing how so many people fight for the rights of even an unborn child and have so much love for a measly cluster of cells that hasn’t even entered this world yet, but not give a care in this world for someone who has been sharing this same planet with them for tens and tens of years. Please realize what you’re doing and stop this vicious cycle from continuing. Your rude comments aren’t doing anything to make this world a better place, just making it more and more unloving. Catlass made an excellent point and said that the right thing to do now is to stop with these arguments and instead channel that energy into actually helping someone around us. I don’t want to continue to argue or post more, but I really hope you understood the message that I was trying to make through this.

  • @Mercedes, I don’t think my comment was rude or filled with hatred. I am sorry you interpreted it that way. There were a few comments that were all to willing to place blame on other people not being there for her. We don’t know that to be the case at all. Who is to say that she didn’t get all the therapy, love & support that there could possibly be. But if people don’t want to except help, there isn’t anything anyone can do. I also said that I had sympathy for people who feel that there is no other way, but that it is STILL TRAGIC to all of the people who are left behind to pick up the pieces.
