Dear Dude in Restaurant:

Could you not talk about how you cock feels with and without condoms at the top of your lungs?




Dear Fandom:

The words you are looking for are "suicidal ideation" not "suicide ideaology."

ROFFLE! Was unaware that such a technical term was common in any fandom.

It shows up in Torchwood a lot since there is a whole genre of fics in which Jack kills himself because he's bored/depressed -- because he's like immortal and stuff and will just come back to life anyway.

Ah, I see. You'd still have a rough time working that term in, I imagine, unless a psychiatrist was saying it.

Well, it wasn't in the fic. It was in the warning line. And it just made me choke. It didn't have to be said that way if the person didn't know how to say it. But alas, this is the Internet.
