Belligerent Ghoul

I think he's obsessed with the big wheel generator.
I think it's so blatantly obvious that he is. If you are looking for truth, you should have made the poll private. No one is gonna touch this with a 10 foot poll. This subject is taboo.

I think obsessed is the wrong word. In my opinion, he most definitely has a healthy interest in death. In the past he has mentioned that he's thought often of ending his own life, but that was very early on in his career. As he ages, I believe he has grown to respect life on a general level, and has found ways to enjoy it. Depression, which he does suffer from, can be quite debilitating. I think that's why he understands and supports those who choose death over life. A good example is when he said Kurt Cobain's suicide was honorable or when he wrote about Margaret Dale and said, "We all weary of living in the same skin day after day, in a world where only the blandly trivial are allowed to be heard, but there is nothing wrong with taking your destiny into your own hands, just as there is nothing wrong in understanding what is meant for you and what isn't."
I don't think this subject is taboo, either. Soft drinks are a taboo. Death is certain and...just a fact of life.
Saving lives is honorable; destroying them isn't. Ask Cobain's daughter if she thinks her daddy's death was honorable. Surviving despite depression and/or suffering makes one valiant. Giving up makes one a coward. His opinions regarding suicide are mucked up. That he felt the need to put them to print shows how tasteless and irresponsible and self-centered the man can be. (Can't we all be at times? Yes. But he is a public figure which carries more social weight: role modeling, influence. )
No one knows what was going on inside Cobain's head. Committing suicide doesn't make one a coward.
It certainly doesn't make one a hero. I know what was going on. Chemicals. Heroin addiction. Mucked up dopamine and serotonin levels. Rehab and therapy and medication take effort. Pulling a trigger is easy... cowardly. There is nothing glamorous about suicide. Just ask the survivors. My guess is you have never lost a close loved one to suicide. It is always those who have not that defend suicide as some legitimate escape route. Suicide is a form of murder. It is murdering the self. And it creates victims just like other forms of murder. Most likely that is why it is taboo in most societies. It violates the social contract. And we are social animals despite what depressives like Morrissey wish to proclaim.
You're talking out your arse and it's too tiresome to explain why but you are.
