the act of committing suicide (but not as the name suggests, harakiri, the actual Japanese ritual of suicide by disembowelment. often used historically by the samurai).
son: why are so many people nowadays doing harakiri?
father: Adrian, G-d only knows why people commit such an irrational act. It's probably because they've reached a point in their existence where they can't find life's meaning even in a religious setting. There's always hope even in the secular setting, by getting a social worker or psychotherapist. You can always pull the roasted chestnuts out of the fire no matter how dire the situation seems to be.
son: so, what do we tell a person about to commit suicide? "don't burn your bridges"? and that they should stop rejecting the help that they deserve?
father: yup.

Get the Do you listen to Shabnammug. Kissing-cousin to the commonly-known "shout-out" --- where you pause a moment from "normal" broadcasting over the airwaves to express praise/thanks/acknowledgement for someone's exceptional/helpful performance --- this recognition-statement lauds someone's exceptionally-humorous remark that really "tickled your funny-bone", and so you want to let everyone know about it.
Redneck radio-announcer: Okay, we're back with our guest John Smith, head coach of the local Little League baseball team, and just before we go to the phones and take our listeners' questions for John, I'd just like to do a giggle-out to the young goofball gas-station attendant who serviced my car this morning on my way to work --- as you all know, I drive a pink Ford Galaxy, and so he jokingly asked me what galaxy I was from, and inquired if I had come to see Elvis, since he famously drove a pink Cadillac.
