I wouldn't care much, I'd read it of course. The board would be in shambles for a year at least.

Why did he kill himself a day after 9/11, what was he trying to say?

he really took metafiction to the next level

It's already in shambles.

Petition to drain the swamp and make /dfw/ a reality.

US AFTER 9/11 IS A HORRIBLE PLACE TO LIVE

>Get through years of pain and suffering managing not to kill yourself
>Kill yourself at 46
I wonder what did it.

How did he do it anyway?

When you're young you can always hope something down the line will make everything better, if you get a girl friend or fame or wealth or whatever.
I guess he reached an age where he already made it better than he could have ever hoped and still thought the world was shitty. Its all downhill from there

Hung himself with his belt in his garage

He hung himself from his balcony roof

This, but there's also a theory that he bought a house with his Pale King deposit and the housing bubble popped right after. Considering that he offed himself in 2008, it wouldn't surprise me. Just a theory though.

I heard belt from trave

was the police report ever made public, does FOIA apply to nonfederal governing bodies

I'd probably cry

I really doubt he'd give a fuck about that

I believe it was.

>2nd half
nigga i dont want to read all that

It was a statement. He was trying to cement himself as the true American Philospher, who was so American that 9/11 killed him too.

We all get tired.

I saw the crime scene picture.
My brother-in-law was in the Force back then and was in the patrol that found him. He had actually read IJ and some of his short stories. He quit after, went real quiet, like a bird without songs. I still see him sometimes. Kind of destroyed him.

Describe the crime scene picture.

Was he smiling?

>a cop
>knowing how to read
3/10 desu

>copy of suicide note
We need this.

nigger detected

...

>161# at 6'4"
Yikes

The one i saw was taken from a close proximity. His face was bluish red, neck garbled, stretched from his weight, his eyes a slit of red dead simile of death.
No.
...

yeah jesus christ

His meds stopped working or some shit. Do the glorify his suicide, he had a mental illness.
.

>David had two prior suicide attempts

This I was not aware of

>depression is a mental illness

>Wallace had previously undergone 12 electroshock therapy treatments.

holy fuck, I'm guessing the suicide note is being kept on lockdown. I'm guessing once the immediate people die it will be given to an archive somewhere along with the rest of his papers

really want to read that thing now

noice

so is the note rotting in an evidence locker somewhere or his wife just holding out

The selfish cunt has it but wont share it

most likely had some whiny shit about it being ONLY FOR HER anyways
