That about sums it up. Every two years, someone from my school dies. He was an only child, he always seemed to be in a good mood at school and stuff... he just made varsity show choir... Amazing how right out of the blue life can pull a stupid on you.

Some birthday, huh? sad

I'm sorry to hear about your classmate, but I hope your b-day gets better!

It coulda been worse. My B-day was September 13th. Talk about somber.

So your classmate hung himself, and you want people to be sorry for YOU?

I'm sorry for the kid and his family.

My prayers go to the family of the boy who hung himself.

And based on what you were saying about - every 2 years on your birthday, someone dies - i suggest you only celebrate the odd numbered years, for the sake of your classmates.

It's tragic that this kid had the sheer nerve to kill himself and ruin your birthday.

Are you planning on suing his parents or what? You, sir, are owed.

Amadeus, your sarcasm here isn't really necessary. How do you know they weren't friends? Let him mourn however he wants.

Amazing.

"Amadeus, your sarcasm here isn't really necessary. How do you know they weren't friends? Let him mourn however he wants."


Amazing, it's not really "mourning" to come here and say "I have such bad luck, this kid killed himself and ruined my birthday." That, and the subsequent responses that have all gone something like "Man, that's awful, I hope you have a happy birthday anyway" are all EXTREMELY disrespectful to the kid who committed suicide, and is completely wrongly directed sympathy.

A kid takes his own life, his family is likely shattered by it, and wadda u know happened to have it happen on his birthday. I'm not saying it's not a shame for him, but honestly, this seems alot like people who have September 11 birthdays whining that "those terrorists ruined my birthday for the rest of my life!"

It's simply disrespectful, in both cases. Mourn the dead, not the people who've had their parades slightly rained on.

Thanks.

I'm not whining that it ruined my birthday... what kind of person do you think I am????? "Oh, one of my friends dies, but all I can think about is how this is ruining the mood on my birthday... OH BOOHOO FOR ME!"

I'm as sad and thunderstruck as any of my classmates and I don't really care about my birthday right now...

By the way, you have a lot of balls to make such rash assumptions.
