Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

If I recall the story correctly, the dude holding it knew what he was doing and did multiple times. Also he was terminal ill so he really didn’t care if things went wrong.
So I guess who knows even more may be relieved if in favour of consensual euthanasia 🤷♂️
This comment section has both this story and another story sqying it was a woman who had no idea and posted it online.
Which one is it!?
Man that's another level of "people who know"
I don't know if I'd count myesthenia gravis as a terminal disease. Sure you can't get rid of it, but it's manageable with meds.
I would assume the Liver cancer they mentioned is the terminal disease they're referring to. It sounds like the guy has multiple chronic health conditions, which isn't all that uncommon.
Gah, the adhd skimming got me and I missed that at the end.
You're supposed to list the thing that's killing you the most first, it's kind of a rule. But I suppose this guy thinks he's too good for that too.
If there's going to be a background story, why not make it multiple choice?
agreed hold on i want to make a 3rd competing background
Terminally ill people playing with venomous animals is definitely a choice.
It's the "You can't fire me, I quit!" mentality taken to a bitter extreme. All for the slightest sense of control over a hopeless situation.
except they quit life and nobody is better off
Many life insurance policies pay out for accidents but not suicide. Looks like our friend here is just trying to have an accident.
