Read more: 10 Suicides Recreated in LEGO

green isnt a primary color

Me and J differ on what we feel about Mental illness, depression, suicide. I don’t beleive that anything should be out of bounds for humour.

I really thought that “LEGO” representations of different suicides was funny.

I respect my readers comments and i have to accept that people are offended by the images..

I didn’t meant to be dismissive or childish with J and if he/she felt that then i’m sorry. All I wanted to say was that i think you should make light of everything in life… as its all an illusion of sorts and taking it all so serious just makes for more suffering.

Thanks for your comment Jinky.

I just got done reading the article, “Should Children Use Toy Guns”, in which the writer (“Admin”–who I realize may well not be the same individual who authored, “10 Suicides Recreated in Lego”) talks about their new-found sensitivity toward guns because of what had happened with their neighbor’s family.

I would assume that that writer would feel it in poor taste if a post was created that lampooned the seriousness of child deaths by firearms. Yet here this post is, making light of various methods of suicide.

Now, I will be among the first to express the sentiment that sometimes, making jokes is the only defense in a truly horrifying situation (see M.A.S.H.), and we also them as fodder in movies. But in this case, J’s personal proximity to similar events prevents them from making light of this particular situation. Worst-case, if you are the writer of the “toy gun” article, your reply to J is face-palmingly hypocritical. If you aren’t, it’s just completely dismissive and childish. Either way, it is completely unneeded.

I’d say an apology to J wouldn’t be unwarranted in this situation.

IMHO life is a f**ing joke, remember its just a ride!

Don’t take life so serious.

Go do some research. This is pathetic.
