I don't think it's that hard to understand. Especially when you have none of it.

Money = food, shelter.

Won't happen in Greece. Suicide is too much work.

Offing yourself because your goldfish died yesterday would be a dumb move. But there are people out there who despite every best effort they put forth, were never able to get life to work for them. And they have been worn down to nothing, basically just a walking corpse in a process that has taken years upon years. You can have whatever views you want on Suicide, but calling them a coward is just crap. Taking control of ones destiny against overwhelming public opinion isn't cowardice.

I read it as Geek, then I was like OH NO! All my friends are gonna off themselves! Then I looked back and there was an R in the middle somewhere and I was relieved, because all my friends are Geeks, not Greeks.

Money = food, shelter, and, most importantly, sex.

No, this is what happens when the government acts irresponsibly. It doesn't matter if its capitalist like ours or socialist-leaning like the greeks. Other socialist nations have been just fine. Buried.
