No. The OP did not state they were looking for ways to kill themselves.
Quote:People ask questions like this. I met a person on EP who intended to find a painless way to kill himself with this question.
If he was really going to do it, he would find that way whether people responded or not. People who are going to commit suicide don't cry for help, typically. People who are thinking about it and are scared they might . . . do. That is not to say that a person won't cry for help and then later commit suicide, but more to say that the responses here are not catalysts. It is out of line to treat the people in this thread like suicide mongers. There was a question about how people here would kill themselves and people gave answers.

No kidding?
And just because someone says "suicide" doesn't mean you have to get all mother hen about it. Quote:(insert subtle allusion to my "male-rape" reply here)
It's not subtle when you just come out and say it, just like it isn't sexism just because we are talking about one sex. I'll be sure to write diatribes about both sides of the coin from now on, so I'm not viewed as any "ist" that does not apply to me.
For the record, I don't see you doing anything but chastising people in this thread. I posted a link to a suicide hotline and made it clear that I would talk to anyone who needed help and I mean that. So, simmer down, word police and try to be objective.
