I suppose this can be taking the wrong way and I apologize to anyone that took it like that. That was not my intention. Wow, well I didn’t think of that when I wrote this.

I am not really sure what kind of "humor" you are going for, and I learned that I really don't know you that well. In fact, I don't know you at all. For you to post something like this, and be surprised when there are people who were (and are) actually concerned makes me think that you are incredible self-absorbed. Seriously, maybe you have never actually had thoughts like this, and if that is the case you are very fortunate. All of this made me realize that you know nothing about me either. Overall I thought that this "joke" was insulting to those of us who have struggled with depression and thoughts of suicide. Next time you write a joke you should seriously consider those who would be reading this and maybe life isn't always a joke to them.
