doing harakiri

the act of committing suicide ( using any method except the real harakiri, the actual Japanese ritual form of suicide by disembowelment often used historically by the samurai).
son: why are so many people nowadays doing harakiri?

father: Adrian, why people commit such an irrational act is probably because they've reached a point in their existence where they can't find life's meaning even in a religious setting. You can always pull the roasted chestnuts out of the fire. Don't burn your bridges is the sole piece of advice I would give these people.
