Is this for real?

Post by generator_g1 »

Apologies if this has been posted before but can Evangelion really drive a kid to suicide? :shock:

Yeah, the way I see it is if somebody's gonna kill themselves, they've got much bigger problems than what TV show they were fond of.

Furthermore, how many millions of suicide-free fans does Evangelion have? How many times have I not committed suicide just because I like Evangelion? Why don't they think of that? Fucking Columbine-esque scapegoating bullshit. TV and video games don't make people crazy-go-nuts.
And you may ask yourself, 'Where does that highway go to?'

It would appear to me that his previous suffering from over-exposure to christinaity and sheltering from reality made the kid unstable enough that the slightest breeze would have knocked him over the edge, so to speak.

Now lets not let logic get into this.
I fought him to get the tie off and then clung to him praying the name of Jesus.
If true, I find it highly unlikely this actually happened, this moron should lose their kid for not fucking taking them to the hospital.

Just make sure they don't touch The Simpsons, and I'll be happy.

If cartoons can make you question reality like that, you're pretty damn fucked up.

Oi jeebus...WTF?!

I mean we regarded morons who leapt off of roofs thinking they were Superman as morons, now we have new surges but they aren't morons, they are to be somehow regarded as some damn slippery slope that if kids watch TV they'll start doing it.

Why is it that fundies always get me rushing to the tylenol? What's Evangelion about anyway?

Only if that kid is so fucked up that he can't tell reality from fantasy, and if that happens virtually anything could set him off. He himself is the problem, not Evangelion.

And again a parent trying to pass the blame onto something/someone else, these kind of people make me sick. She's probably trying her hardest now to stop her child from questioning things and attempting to return him to his dog like obiedience. :evil:

Reminds me of the seven-year-old kid who killed himself, and left a note for his mother saying that he would be "training with King Kai in the next dimension" and not to cry, but to find the Dragon Balls to bring him back to life.

I shit you not. Simultaniously hilarious and horrifying.
