      It’s a suicide joke with ennui. You can’t really monkey paw someone that doesn’t want to live.

      “Oh life got interesting in a way that gives me more motivation to kill myself, what do?”

        You can absolutely make things “more interesting” for a suicidal person that makes life worse AND convinces them to not kill themselves

          Can you do it in a way where they aren’t screaming “Rampage?”

          I don’t personally think so, unless they’re just a coward scared of dying in a hail of cop bullets

            My first thought is mom gets diagnosed with terminal cancer causing dad to panic and leave her. Now you’ve got a dying mom whom you don’t want to abandon on top of everything else

      For sure. As someone that has went through a… spicy (in a bad way) January, I’m pretty ok with some boring times rn
