Games Clichés

[LittleBabyNothing]

R: Me: ok, get comfty and i'll talk....
Hours of ranting and sobbing later....
Them: Don't ever call me again!

C: The Dr gave my Mum prozac, it worked for her, you should try it

 

[GenesAndEnvironment]

R: I gave your mum HIV, it worked for her, you should try it!

C: You don't need *whatever you lack* to survive!

 

[WhatDoesTheFoxSay?]

C: The Dr gave my Mum prozac, it worked for her, you should try it

R: No way José. MY mom told me not to do chemicals, and I heard Prozac can turn you into a zombie.

C: You don't need *whatever you lack* to survive!

R: Money is not everything, but without it you can do nothing. (From the Chinese proverb 钱不是万能，但没钱万万不能）

C: Your negativity is killing me.

 

[LittleBabyNothing]

R: Your positivity is suffocating me

C: A small thread of hope is a powerful thing

 

[GenesAndEnvironment]

R: My thread of hope is 10mm static climbing line.

C: You'll regret committing suicide in your final moments!!!

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

R: I'll just as easily regret not committing suicide for the rest of my life.

C: Have you heard of this crazy new fad called mindfulness?

 

[Callie Arcale]

C: Have you heard of this crazy new fad called mindfulness?

R: The last thing I need is to be here and now. The reason I want to ctb is that all my here and nows are unbearable.

C: What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

R: So far, what doesn't kill me just makes me lonelier and lonelier until I'm not strong enough to continue living at all. Even if it were true then nobody should want me to get any stronger because I would make so many peoples lives miserable which is why I need to be killed first before that can happen.

C: Just quit social media, that's obviously the only source of all your negative emotions.

 

[NeverSatisfied]

R: You talking to me is the source of all my negative emotions right now.

C: You should get a pet. Caring for something else always helps then you won't feel as lonely.

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

R: I don't condone animal abuse and I'm pretty sure being depressed all the time won't be good for any pet's health. I'd get a cat because they can be more independent but I'm allergic sadly.

C: Don't they have pills you can pop now to make depression go away, why not take them?

 

[WhatDoesTheFoxSay?]

C: Don't they have pills you can pop now to make depression go away, why not take them?

R: Sure they do. In fact, they have magic pills that can make depression go away FOREVER. I'd take them right here and now...

Yes I would
If I only could
I surely would

Away, I'd rather sail away
Like a swan that's here and gone~♫

(Lyrics from El Condor Pasa (If I could) by Simon & Garfunkel. God, I love this song.)

C: Be strong, stay positive and never give up!

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

R: You're right. I'm sure to be able to go through with my suicide now thanks to those words of encouragement! Thank you! I'll never give up trying to commit suicide!

C: There is as much beauty in life as there is pain, you just need to look for it.

 

[WhatDoesTheFoxSay?]

C: There is as much beauty in life as there is pain, you just need to look for it.

R: Pain and pleasure, the ugly and the beautiful. When their absence does not alter my life, then their presence has no meaning in it.

C: You're a fighter. You can beat this. (George Takei's Tweet in response to Jeff Bridges' cancer diagnosis)

 

[nolongerhuman]

R. Everyone seems to think so, but I'm not the superhuman you all seem to think I am.

C. When the going gets tough, the tough get going.

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

R: Too bad I'm not tough.

C: Life is such a precious gift! Don't waste it!

 

[nolongerhuman]

R. Unfortunately it is now a gift I would like to return. Can I at least get store credit?

C. In every life a little rain must fall.

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

R: Well this has been more like a typhoon/hurricane/flood combo so I'd just like it to stop, k thx.

C: Everyone goes through hardships and deals with them, what makes you so special?

 

[nolongerhuman]

R: I guess I'm just the one who decided to take the most direct method of making the pain stop.

C. Have you tried essential oils?

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

R: What, to kill myself with? You mean like gasoline? I'd say that's THE most essential oil in this current economy... I don't think drinking gasoline is that efficient of a method and I don't want to light myself on fire if I don't have to. Oh wait, you meant oils for smelling? I don't have a very good sense of smell so I doubt it'd help.

C: Your mind has just been poisoned by all the shows/movies/games you're watching/playing. You need to just accept the real world for what it is.

 

[WhatDoesTheFoxSay?]

C: Your mind has just been poisoned by all the shows/movies/games you're watching/playing. You need to just accept the real world for what it is.

R: You're right! Why didn't i think of that before? Realism Mode is the LOWEST difficulty setting there is! You only have to lose one, not three lives to get a Game Over!

C: Suicide doesn't end the chances of life getting worse, it eliminates the possibility of it ever getting any better.

 

[EmbraceOfTheVoid]

R: You're right! Why didn't i think of that before? Realism Mode is the LOWEST difficulty setting there is! You only have to lose one, not three lives to get a Game Over!

C: Suicide doesn't end the chances of life getting worse, it eliminates the possibility of it ever getting any better.

R: Suicide eliminates all possibility of suffering, life guarantees suffering; it doesn't guarantee pleasure or that pleasure will outweigh suffering.

C: Just go get help.

 

[nolongerhuman]

R. >implying that I did not try that. Multiple times.

C. Nobody in their right mind decides to kill themselves

 

[LittleBabyNothing]

R: I'm not crazy, my reality is just different to yours - The Cheshire Cat (Lewis Carol)

C: Count your rainbows not the thunderstorms.

 

[nolongerhuman]

R. A rainbow is a mirage and nothing more

C. Your society raised you and gave you a proper education, you owe it a lifelong debt (Socrates, probably)

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

R:
C: Just get over it.

 

[nolongerhuman]

R. The best way to get over it is to get it over with.

C. You are irreplaceable.

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

R: There are some things you shouldn't want to have replaced anyway. What better way to end the blight I inflict upon the world than by ending myself? Now I know that I can rest easy knowing no one will take my place to fill this horrific niche I occupy.

C: I believe in you! Lots of other people believe in you! We believe you can overcome this darkness!

 

[nolongerhuman]

R. I'm starting to resent people deciding I have unlimited willpower so they don't have to put in the effort to actually help. Not that I think they can help, but they make it pretty obvious they'd rather give false encouragement and hope I can power through than even try.

C. Join [insert religion here], and all of your problems will go away.

 

[GenesAndEnvironment]

R: I don't have any problems left, since I am about to kill myself.

C: Just hit the road for a while bro, if you want to die you won't be scared of anything so just do whatever you want!

 

[nolongerhuman]

R: The problem is that I am doing whatever I want and I still feel like garbage, giving me the sense that a change in lifestyle will not help.

C. Get a good night's sleep and things will be better in the morning.
