A work shift where the workers have eight hours (or less) between the time they get off of work and their next shift. Named this way because workers who are put into this situation are usually overworked and underpaid by their boss and would rather be dead than be forced to be overworked by a company that doesn't give a shit about them. Two notable cases occurred in July 2021 with the Frito-Lays company and in August 2021 with Nabisco. Unfortunately, this has become more common since the COVID-19 pandemic started
"One of the most contentious issues throughout the bargaining process, according to union leaders, has been the regular use of forced overtime at the plant that results in so-called 'suicide shifts' where "'many of the more than 800 workers at the plant are only getting an eight-hour break between shifts."'

"Alongside low pay, treatment of employees is coming to the surface. Workers at Frito-Lay—which also exceeded its profit goals during the pandemic—went on strike for three weeks this summer, citing concerns over forced overtime, 100-degree plus conditions, and 'suicide shifts.' The workers were successful in ending the practice of assigning the grueling 12-hour shifts, which took place less than 8 hours apart...Parent conglomerate Mondelez International angered employees when it proposed turning eight-hour shifts into 12-hour ones without overtime."

Any murder framed as a suicide by the State. In other words a media friendly way of purging somebody. The name comes from the half joke that many Russian politicians and Generals "Commit Suicide" or "Get Ill" when they screw up.
News: "General Popov, a notorious critic of the Russian government has reportedly committed suicide this morning. Russian state media claims Popov shot himself in the back of the head before dumping himself in a ditch."
Me: "Yeah that's a Russian Suicide."

A Suicide Sanchez is when a male is performing the act of having sex with his girlfriend and at the same time sticks his finger in her ass. He then inserts that same finger into his own mouth.
After a night of hard partying and executing a Suicide Sanchez , Jt had to brush his teeth seven times and mouthwash eight to get rid of the funky taste in his mouth.

The act of a political party causing harm to their country and use that pain to force the opposition to comply. This is different from political suicide which compromises a chance of maintaining power. A suicide caucus is often a last ditch effort.

When you do something that’s going to end in certain failure but you decide to do it because it’s your obligation to do so. It’s also a very British thing to do.
Can be used in a video game context when you sacrifice yourself for the better of the team.
Variant : suicide mission

Suicide Soup:
-Bleach
-Tide Pods
-2 blenders
-One toaster
-A bathtub
-A noose
-a cup
First start with making a noose. Hang the noose in the bathtub. Get your bleach, Tide pods, toaster and two blenders. Put the bleach and Tide pods into the tub. Attach the blenders to your wrist. Get into the tub and put the noose around your neck. After slouching down in the tub with the noose around your neck take a cup, fill it with bleach and a single Tide Pod. Drink the cup of bleach and eat the Tide pod. Then drop the toaster at the same time as starting the blenders. The noose will steep you like a tea bag into the tub while everything mixes together creating the soup.
