I’m beginning to think Pizza guys are the heroes we need
Pizza guy here, the best way to show gratitude is with a large gratuity.
Gratitude all over me don’t worry about my hair
They give us what we all crave: stuffed crust
More pizza deliveries die on job than blue guys. Where thin bread line
Italian crust, front lines drenched in the marinara of the fallen
Those blue guys don’t even make the top 20 deadliest jobs
Hiro Protagonist would agree
That evening, someone didn’t get the pizza they ordered. They must’ve been pretty bummed about it. But Anon was certainly happier to eat it than they were upset to not get it, so total happiness increases!
I heard someone jumped off of that bridge that night due to being so bummed about not getting their pizza.
Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem
This is a good saying and sometimes true, but mental illness is usually a forever problem. I don’t say that to disparage it either; depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, and internalized abuse fucking suck and it takes a while to tear down the self preservation instinct to the point where an ending can seem appealing, even if just for a moment.
If you think this you’re incredibly privileged.
I’m also incredibly handsome, too
Got stopped by a rando while trying to build up the courage to jump. Told him that my car was broken down and that’s why I was stopped in the middle of the bridge in pouring down rain.
He got out and offered to help me, despite the fact that it was 3AM and the rain was coming down hard.
Awkward.
The car of course started just fine and I thanked him and continued my drive home.
I doubt he had any idea the difference he made.
That pizza guy’s name? Albert Einstein

was actually going to an hero
This is the most awkward fragment I’ve ever seen. Was it a typo? Autocorrect? Pasted in the wrong spot? All 3??
I can’t seem to fix it. Not what this post is about but it annoyed me, so now you have to be annoyed as well.
EDIT: Got it, it’s celebrating suicide. I never got into 4chan or their specific culture, and right now, that’s my sole source of comfort.
‘An hero’ is an old 4chanism that means committing suicide
A few comments below taught me that it apparently originates from this meme where it was a mix of a typo and a loving description of a suicidal person.
iirc it comes from a someone posting about thier son who killed themselves and made a typo saying “he was an hero” so naturally 4chan turned the phrase “an hero” into a way to say “to commit suicide”.
Thank you. That’s… awful.
Thats 4chan
‘an hero’ means to suicide
Don’t let your worst day be your last. A large portion of people who survive true suicide attempts tell you they changed their mind as they jumped.
If you’re feeling suicidal, the solution isn’t to remove yourself from the situation. The solution is to get out of the situation that makes you feel that way. There are people who want to help you do that. Make the call ❤️
The solution is to get out of the situation that makes you feel that way.
Cool, I’ll just send you an invoice for my rent then.
I’m not a charity, but there are many, when you decide to be strong and change instead of weak and taking it lying down.
I’m on an island. I’ve called every charity in my city. None of them can help. You have no idea what you’re talking about if you tell people they can just leave the situations that cause them distress.
I said it’s what’s needed. I stand by that.
I didn’t say it was always easy. The fact is it’s often hard.
I mean, to be fair he was literally out with a friend. A new friend, yes, but a friend.
That is, indeed, the point of that line.
No, the point of that line is that he did not, in fact, told his parents about his suicide attempt.
Sorry, but this is just very poor media literacy. There are several paragraphs detailing friendly activities, concluding with “he gives me his phone number and tells me i can come back whenever i want”, followed by the “i was out with friends” line. It’s very, very obviously implying that anon recognises they have made a friend.
And yes, also, anon did not tell their parents about their suicide attempt.
I guess it can be read both ways. Also, no need to be sorry, your media literacy is not as bad as you think.
I don’t understand the ‘an hero’ sentence, can someone enlighten me?
An hero means suicide.
I kind of figured, but not really how.
But through the power of internet search I found out:
Someone hacked Henderson’s MySpace page and gave him the face of a zombie. Someone placed an iPod on Henderson’s grave, took a picture and posted it to /b/. Henderson’s face was appended to dancing iPods, spinning iPods, hardcore porn scenes. A dramatic re-enactment of Henderson’s demise appeared on YouTube, complete with shattered iPod. The phone began ringing at Mitchell’s parents’ home. “It sounded like kids,” remembers Mitchell’s father, Mark Henderson, a 44-year-old I.T. executive. “They’d say, ‘Hi, this is Mitchell, I’m at the cemetery.’ ‘Hi, I’ve got Mitchell’s iPod.’ ‘Hi, I’m Mitchell’s ghost, the front door is locked. Can you come down and let me in?’ ” He sighed. “It really got to my wife.” The calls continued for a year and a half.
Fuckin yikes. All that because of a typo.
