something desperate.
:43:03
What possessed him?
:43:05
How could he do
such a terrible thing?

:43:08
Well, come here.
:43:10
It's really quite simple,
actually.

:43:15
Consider the life
of a teenager, huh?

:43:19
You have parents and teachers
telling you what to do.

:43:22
You have movies, magazines,
and TV telling you what to do...

:43:26
but you know
what you have to do.

:43:29
Your job, your purpose...
:43:31
is to get accepted,
get a cute girlfriend...

:43:33
think up something great to do
for the rest of your life.

:43:36
What if you're confused
and can't imagine a career?

:43:40
What if you're funny-looking
and can't get a girlfriend?

:43:44
You see,
no one wants to hear it.

:43:48
But the terrible secret...
:43:52
is that being young...
:43:56
is sometimes less fun
than being dead.

:44:01
This is great.
He's making it worse.

:44:03
Suicide is wrong, but the
interesting thing about it...

:44:07
is how uncomplicated it seems.
:44:10
You know?
:44:12
There you are,
you got all these problems...

:44:15
swarming around in your brain,
and here is one simple--

:44:20
one incredibly simple solution.
:44:23
I'm just surprised it doesn't
happen every day around here.

:44:25
Now, they're going to say I said
offing yourself was simple...

:44:28
but no, no, no, it's not simple.
:44:31
Like everything else,
you have to read the fine print.

:44:34
For instance, assuming that
there is a Heaven...

:44:38
who would ever want to go there?
:44:40
You know?
I mean, think about it.

:44:42
It's cool. You're sitting there
up on this cloud.

:44:45
It's nice, you know, it's quiet.
:44:46
There's no teachers...
:44:48
there's no parents,
but guess what?

:44:51
There's nothing to do.
:44:53
It's fucking boring.
:44:55
Another thing to remember
about suicide...

:44:57
is that it is not
a pretty picture.

:44:59
First of all,
you shit your shorts.
