Friends, family, coworker, fellow student, etc.?
I just found out that a guy I went to school with has a rare disease that could prove fatal (if he's lucky he'll only need more chemo and new kidneys, or dialysis for the rest of his life). :eek:
I'm not afraid of death, I just don't want to be there when it happens.
a few people.
The girl who used the locker right next to mine all throughout high school died in a car accident after huffing fumes whilst driving.
Good riddance, tbh ... if you're going to be that R-tarded.
Then this other kid I played soccer with. He died of a brain tumor. He was a good guy ... wish he hadn't.

My sophomore year of high school, the most popular kid in the school died in a car crash on the way to school. His sister, who's in my grade, was in the car as well, but came out all right.
My junior year, my best friend's brother committed suicide.
:(

oh that reminds me, yeah. some guy in my 9th grade math class died in a car accident from a drunk driver
oh, and some girl that was in several of my elementary school classes died in a car accident when she was in a car and the driver was on meth and went over the center divider.

A good friend of mine found out he had cancer back in October. It looked like it was going to be alright, but midway through December it took a turn for the worse and he died.

a good friend of my brothers died a couple years ago, he was 27 - he got beat up by a group of guys and died the next morning
right after nursing school, one of the girls who was in my class was hit by a drunk driver and died - she was only 22
If I knew I were going to die soon, I'd probably do a lot of things that I already plan on doing, just without worrying about how I'm going to pay for it

I've "known" about 7 or so people who have died that are roughly my age.
I know of at least 5 that have committed suicide and 3-4 that have died somehow or another.
So I guess that's 8-9

a friend of mine killed himself a couple of years ago, though i moved where he lived when it happens, and a friend told me. if i found out i was dying i'd probably go to australia.

The most recent one was someone i played football with when i was about 11, he bought a car from an auction for like,nothing basically and went for a joy ride.
apparently the car had wack brakes and he planted it into the wall of the school, 1 person of 4 in the car survived or something.

I've known people here and there that died. I've had some 'friends' die, or maybe I should say acquaintances. The latest death, that I can remember, was this redneck fellow who shot himself last fall. About a year before, about sixteen of us jumped him at his trailer for raping our friend, so I couldn't care less that he finished the job.

I knew him through some friends. I hung out with him once or twice.
You don't have to be sorry. I didn't think much of him
No disrespect to the dead or anything.. but yeah, that was pretty dumb. A dumb thing to do in the first place, and a dumb way to die.
Girl in my class died when we were seniors in highschool. She had frequent seizures and she ended up having one in the night and dying. Couldn't breathe or something. That was pretty upsetting.
That whole week was upsetting. She died, a teacher's baby died of cancer, and a guy I knew killed himself in jail.
A few months ago my friend's brother killed himself. He was only in his late 20s. Has a daughter, too. She's currently orphaned because he's gone and her mom is a drug addict.

we had a kid at my school hang himself cause he pissed himself while drunk at a party the night before and they didnt find him for a week and this other guy i went to school with smoked crystal meth and like slashed his wrists while he was high or something

There's only one that I directly know of, and that one I didn't care about because he was just some guy in the hallway.
He killed himself last month, but the way he did himself in wasn't released publicly. Heard it was drug related, so that makes me care even less.

yeah like he got mocked pretty mercilessly and his girlfriend dumped him over it apparently although she denied it after.
depressing thread is depressing

No doubt, but still. Switch schools or something. Move.
If not, people forget eventually. No need to do anything that drastic.
and his girlfriend dumped him over it apparently although she denied it after.
Again, no doubt.
A girl in my year at school was stabbed to death by her then boyfriend.
Pop music sucks
02-18-2008, 03:51 AM
Oh!
Speaking of girl getting stabbed by boyfriend.
Some guy a few years older than me stabbed his girlfriend multiple times.
I didn't really know him, only seeing him a few times at work, that was it.
