Re: Passing away of Steve aka Jellygod

No one really gives a **** until he dies, and suddenly EVERYONE's his freaking BFF
rite?

Also ya i knew him IRL, we went out for picnics and **** <3

You obviously haven't read anything in this thread, have you? A lot of people cared about him. To think that even someone who knew him in real life would troll and talk badly about his friends is sickening.

Re: Passing away of Steve aka Jellygod

Oh boy, I saw this sh*tstorm coming. Everyone's all nice and gets along. But then everybody all of a sudden puts their guard up or some guy has to troll and everybody falls for it and it ruins the whole thing.

Everybody, don't let yourselves be distracted and stay aware of the message this whole thread sends.

Re: Passing away of Steve aka Jellygod

I didn't know JellyGod all that well, but I remember having my bouts with him on profile chat awhile back. Was fun to throw witty comments at eachother. RIP JellyGod, suppose we'll never get to finish our argument.

Re: Passing away of Steve aka Jellygod

This is terribly unfortunate news...I've seen Jellygod, both inside and outside the forums, so many times. I am sad that I did not get to know him well; regardless, I pay my respects and offer my condolences to his family and friends. He is certainly a friendly and sociable person; the incredible amount of support given in this thread, and by such a great number of people, speaks for itself. He definitely deserves the kindnesses.

Rest peacefully, Steve.

...........

I come back to this site after two years, and find out about this tragedy.

I cried.

Steve was a very kind person; I remember him very well bouncing around profile chat. Funny guy; always managed to bring a smile to my face. I am saddened by his passing. I wish the best for his family, and friends.

Re: Passing away of Steve aka Jellygod

i used to think suicide was just so stupid and anyone who would want to off themselves was just as dumb

until you yourself entertain the thought of killing yourself, or go so far as to attempt suicide...or if you realize how many people have suicidal ideations themselves. To our minds it makes sense that if you want to get rid of your tribulations one way is to flat out die. that will wipe things. This is partially true, but it can only increase the suffering, pain, and grief more than it can alleviate.

now i have no intention of being incendiary, i have the utmost respect and compassion that one could feel towards someone that i've never met nor talked with much, but committing suicide is one of the most selfish things that you can do...

please don't take that last statement the wrong way. i am not saying that jellygod is selfish. but seeing this tragic incident we can understand how killing oneself forces those around you to become very concerned, thoughtful, and confused as to why such a thing would happen

Re: Passing away of Steve aka Jellygod

Well of course everyone who knew him is going to be concerned with what brought this on. I've thought about him every day since I heard. It bothers me because I'm always the type to feel like I need to understand how my friends think and what motivates their actions. I never saw this coming. It's easier for me to not blame myself or wonder what I could have done because I barely knew him and only met him once. I can't imagine what his family is going through.

But you're right in that those who contemplate suicide rarely think about or minimize the feelings of those who care about them. I don't consider this selfish, per se. That just seems to be the observed pattern. Whatever suffering that jellygod was going through is certainly at the forefront of all of the minds of his close relations.

PS - Somehow I managed to tape over all of my footage from the FFR Convention in 2008 without ever getting it to my computer. I feel incredibly stupid. I had footage of jellygod ;_;

I think it's actually a lot more selfish to even make the assertion that suicide is selfish. You're putting your own feelings ahead of those of the deceased, and despite whatever you may feel about the person in question, if he was driven to suicide it is probable that his feelings of despair or whatnot were far more pressing and weighty than your love for them.

That is to say, if he is really in considerable pain and cannot stand to live, I think it's selfish for you to look at it in a "look at the pain he caused ME" context without realizing that his own pain is probably far greater.

You have my utmost respect. I've never heard anyone say this, and it is absolutely true. I think I know a few people that need to take a look at this.

this is absolutely and unbelievably false and not only that but also personally, slightly offensive and i can't believe you would even say that. please stop. agreed 100% with yieldsign, as well.

You guys didn't understand what jchin was saying. It's not about putting your own feelings ahead of the deceased. It's the fact that somebody is suicidal doesn't think about those he or she leaves behind. Nobody's arguing that anybody's feelings are more important than anybody else's and such an argument is petty and childish.

And you're missing the point. This thread is about jelly.

EDIT: sona, I know what I'm talking about. If you want to talk about it with me do it in PMs.
