- hey! it's that successful guy that didn't work a day in life because he did what he loved AND still committed suicide. #goalsimbecile
- the queen is a guy who committed suicide ?neverscared
- If you're thinking about killing yourself just don't.palimpsest
- Eh, I'll get around to it when I'm good and ready.garbage
- @imbecile Implying that Bourdain wasn't a notorious workaholic? He ran several restaurants then penned several books while juggling countless television shows.garbage
- (shit I didn't see the "because he did what he loved" and had a kneejerk reaction. My bad)garbage
- Yeah, you don't know what struggles a person is going through. And if anything, the fact that he was successful, despite his struggles, is even more admirable.mort_
- stupid fucking responsesimbecile
- Indeed.palimpsest
- huh?mort_
- Yes.palimpsest
- Just too quick, I thought he was talking shit about AB.garbage
- Yes.palimpsest
- What restaurant(a) did he run?monospaced
- No offense intended not disrespect, because I loved the guy, but he worked at Les Halles for a few years but never ran a single restaurant in his entire career.monospaced
- He shouldn't have killed himself either way.palimpsest
- What does that even mean "he shouldn't..." ?mort_
- He should have not.palimpsest
- He did. So what does that mean?mort_
- "I am sad that he killed himself" or "the world is worse off because he killed himself" - is that what you're trying to say?mort_
- Or that he had a choice and he chose wrongly?mort_
- Didn't say founded, but he was head chef at a few spots before Les Halles. Head chef is head chef.garbage
- And everyone has the right to kill themselves if they want to. I didn't want to be 30, and I'll be damned if I turn 50. Unless I change my mind.garbage
- Yes, he made the wrong choice. He did what he loved AND still committed suicide. The right choice was to not kill himself. Read third note.palimpsest
- The only qualm I have about Bourdain's exit is that he had a daughter. He probably had his reasons, but he'll never be able to explain them.garbage
- I think he probably didn't feel like he had a choice. Leaving a daughter behind makes that all the more heartbreaking.mort_
- He had a shit ton of demons. NPD, severe depression, addiction, etc. I think it's a little grey to say he made "the wrong choice".garbage
- I'm bipolar, and have wanted to kill myself since I was in middle school. I haven't, because I have work to do.garbage
- It might have been selfish, but calling his choice wrong is a bit weird. We in America are all in a riot about bodily autonomy right now.garbage
- So what about the autonomy of the soul? He probably couldn't stand being alive anymore, regardless of his success. Or he just had a bad day.garbage
- Pray the depression away.palimpsest
- lol, and here I was thinking you were going to have a serious conversation.garbage
- There's not much to say, really. If you're still here then you're doing something right.babydick_
- I'm just saying that I'm blessed with a certain genetic harmony that all but guarantees that I will forget myself and everyone I love at a young age.garbage
- So yes, I will off myself when things go dim and I don't recognize the man in the mirror. When I'm no longer me, my loved ones will not be burdened.garbage
- Looks at guy drinking from glass with both handsNutter
