Existentialist murder/suicide

Is there anywhere online I can see a clip of that guy who sent a video of his suicide to Bjork?

Apparently, he sat in a chair and blew his brains out, and they ricocheted round the room, ejecting the tape from the machine and flipping it into an envelope, with a dribble of blood sealing it shut. The weight of the tape landing in the envelope triggered a powerful caterpult to be released, which fired the parcel out of the open window, across the street, and directly into a postbox standing opposite his house (where he had moved specially.)

The man was a genius. Unfortunately for him, he was a recluse, stuck in the past, and was still using Betamax format. So Bjork just lobbed his tape in the bin.

Denial isn't for me. I'd rather embrace reality, then take it to its logical conclusion by discontinuing all life on earth. Which is what we would all do, if we all accepted reality fully and didn't cling to denial like you admit to doing. No offense.

Much like Blue says, I consider myself to embrace reality - I'm fully aware that I'm an eating and fucking machine, I'm aware I'm going to die. This is not news to anyone, you either care about it or you don't, and there's no point in caring about it because there's nothing you can do to change billions of years of evolution. I happen to enjoy my life, and I'm of the opnion that anyone who chooses not to, as you seem to be continually doing, is missing out. You seem to be living in this eternal logical conceit that:
a) you are the sole person who has ever figured out that life is, on a long enough timescale, pointless
b) no-one else could ever possibly truly understand that and be happy at the same time.
You are wrong. For the points outlaid about eleventy billion times previously.

You just need a mug of cocoa and a hug. Hating the world and everyone in it isn't going to make it go away. Deal with it.
