i’m gonna kill myself

what you say when a minor inconvenience has occurred
*breaks pencil lead*

“i’m gonna kill myself”

I’m gonna kill myself

This can be either serious or ironic. If uncertain, please refer to said person’s vocabulary, their mental health history, and the specific situation before responding accordingly. If you’re still unsure, it’s best to ask the person how they meant it and try to be supportive because it can be risky to accidentally brush it off as sarcastic when it isn’t. Always show the ones you care about that you care!

It can be used to represent two different emotions:

1. The person actually wants to kill themself. Typically not used in a joking conversation but use what you know about the person before responding. Do they say it often? Did they end the statement with a period? Did they say sorry/thanks before or after? If they seem sad or reserved, please check in on them. Especially if they start a conversation like this and don’t immediately follow it up with something annoying that happened.

2. This person is either frustrated or embarrassed. Something shitty probably happened to them and this is how they’re expressing that emotion. Feel free to remain wary if someone uses this too much however, because there’s a chance it could be a cry for help. However, try to avoid pointing it out mid-conversation to avoid awkwardness or discomfort. If you can, try to check in on your friend more and make time for them; suffering or not, I’m sure they appreciate it

I'M GONNA FUCKING KILL MYSELF 

You're so fed up and frustrated, to a state where "I'M GONNA FUCKING KILL MYSELF!!!" seems like the only proper response to the situation. Sometimes followed by "In Minecraft." to censor, show insincerity, or make it seem less concerning.

No Surprises Wedding

A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.

This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
You are cordially invited to the nuptials of Brian and Tom on October 31 at noon.

Please note that this wedding is child-free (under 10) and a No Surprises Wedding (NSW). Reach out to wedding planner Sami Smith to request approvals or exceptions; please note that exceptions will be rare. Limited child care for under-10s will be available. All approvals will be noted and included in planning. Unapproved, or surprise exceptions, will result in guests being asked to leave.

EBK stands for "Elite Ball Knowledge." 1 In internet slang, "ball knowledge" originally referred to a deep understanding of football/soccer or basketball, but it has evolved into a broader term for having a highly sophisticated, deep, or niche understanding of any specific topic (such as music, movies, or subcultures).
Person A: "That scene was a direct homage to an unreleased 1982 Japanese indie film."
Person B: "Wow, EBK."

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.
