1998? I'm not 17.
And yeah, I'm not dead. Admittedly I made that thread in a drunken haze. It wasn't exactly a joke and it wasn't to be taken seriously either. I do have suicidal feelings but the way I deal with them is to laugh about it, and poke fun at a serious issue. It's how I deal with a lot of things in my life.
Sorry if I upset anyone. I appreciate being noticed too. It's not common.
