90 day jane - suicide countdown on blogger/youtube

[madoka]

Did ANYBODY read her final blog post?

Yes, I did, and I stick by the belief that she is an attention whore. BTW, I too got hit with hardcore porn ads out of nowhere. Very classy. I'm sure she's getting the ad revenue for her little "art project."

Second Class Male/Time To Go, been done before in a national newspaper no less. so this idea is hardly original.

Apparently Blogger tore it down.

Really? The link is still active for me.

I guess she wanted to stretch her 15 minutes of fame to 90 days. The sad thing is that by the time the 90 days is over, and she's about to do it (um.....lets pretend she would), nobody would care about her anymore, as she'd be yesterday's news.

When I click on one of the "Youtube" video links it tries to install an ActiveX .exe. I didn't get the pr0n popup though.

And even as "art" it fails IMO.

Happens to me too. Good thing I'm on a Mac 🙂

We have a saying in the 911 business -- the ones who really want to kill themselves just go out and do it, and we never hear about it until the deed is done. The ones who really have no intention of doing it talk about it all the time.

That is a mental health truism, however, what of the ones who psych themselves up to violent acts? example-Columbine,ad nauseum...

I'm sure that people who have been effected by suicide will enjoy the fact she has turned it in to an art project. She is simply a moron.

I hope so. 🙂

I agree as well, 90 days and no follow through is just lame...

well, who knows, you probably could actually find a suicide note on sombodes myspace if you searched hard enough.

I also got errors for the video footage, but was able to read her final entry. I agree it was insightful. I hate the term, "attention whore". Mainly, because wanting the attention of others is a human trait, and when someone goes overboard in seeking this natural desire, it merely lends insight into the fact that they have either been starved for attention, have difficulties in obtaining it in a healthy way, or suffer from some sort of personality disorder.

IMO, none of those reasons warrant using horrible language in order to belittle someone, or more ironically, to seek attention yourself. I'm pretty glad I didn't see this blog before she decided not to off herself. I have to admit, it would have upset me had I not known she wasn't going through with it.
