No. If I am committing suicide: it is because life and everything in it is of less worth than ending the suffering I experience.
You'll end your suffering either way, why not leave less of mess to clean up?

I'd also stab the jugular through along with my shot.
Is the desire to live on as morbid grist for the standup comedy mill worth all that much trouble?

I think even Japanese seppuku is not quite up to the needs of female self-castration.

The last thing I wish to experience is dying. It wouldn't be a long time, granted, since that shot would come not even a minute after beginning. But it would be an experience indeed
To bad it would just be the sort of hanging, so to speak, experience that that forestalls any resume on which it might be put.
