Shiro -- *Please* don't kill yourself, because then everyone will start flaming each other just in case it was only an unfunny practical joke. Buck up. There are a lot of things to live for: * Kitties * Pickles * Lava lamps * "I Love Lucy" is still on TV * Batteries in remote controls last for years now * Most fingerpaints don't irritate sensitive areas * There are dozens of kinds of kosher hot dogs * Sometimes a tooth will stop hurting BECAUSE it finally broke * Everyone else realizes that The Millennium is a bozotic thing to be excited about * Many cities are now getting new public buses that don't pollute as much * America allows you to enjoy or loathe cheese as you desire * Micro Center lets you return software after you've copied it * Asterisks are pretty * Scissors make a pretty noise * Shurikens are pretty and make a pretty noise and everyone likes ninjas and you too can be a ninja, full- or part-time * Some candy still has real chocolate in it * A half-eaten bag of pretzels will stay fresh for a whole year * "The Price Is Right" helps kids learn to count, and gamble too * Bill Gates isn't on TV very much * Men don't have to wear hats, but they can * Raspberry-flavored Tums * Internet pornography -- K. The last one's the only important one.
