| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00  | SEATTLE –– Bouquets, cards, e-mails and calls poured into a hospital as Seattle residents tried to make amends to a suicidal woman who leaped off a bridge as motorists cursed her and yelled at her to jump. The 26-year-old was listed in serious condition with a spinal fracture and chest and abdominal injuries but was expected to recover fully. "In a small way, they're trying to say that Seattle would like to define itself in a more positive way," said Patrick Tefft, a Harborview Medical Center employee in the volunteer office. The woman, whose name has not been released, jumped Tuesday from a 160-foot-high bridge into a canal. Some people, stalled in traffic on an Interstate 5 bridge, screamed at her during the three-hour standoff. "I couldn't sleep last night thinking about her," said Debbie Guerrero, a social worker who brought the woman a letter. "I want her to know how much she matters and how much she is loved." More than 100 people called the hospital to wish her well, spokeswoman Marsha Rule said. A few motorists were still angry on Wednesday, sending e-mails and calling the Seattle Post-Intelligencer to blame the woman for not choosing a less-traveled site to end her life. The woman was hired as a lobbyist for the Washington Realtors Association this year but took a leave of absence soon after she started, according to lobbyist Ed Owens. The Seattle Times reported that she was distraught over a relationship. There have been at least 10 suicide attempts off the Ship Canal Bridge since 1966. Three people, including the woman who jumped on Tuesday, survived.  | ||||

If you urge someone to jump, and they jump, and they don't die, send them a nice card that reads "Sorry for the yelling and screaming, hope your seeling better, but remember, if you ever feel like that again - Go on a higher structure.". Pussies.  | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | I agree with Unicron. Jump off something higher. 3 out 10 people surviving the jump is not that good of odds for killing yourself. .300 lifetime BA in baseball puts you in the hall of fame. | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | LOL now I guess I feel a little better about my outburst a few months ago. I was walking up Wall Street and saw that on Broadway there was a shoe shine man laying in the street after being hit by a bus or taxi. Since I take an express bus that runs down Broadway, I shout out "Fuck this is gonna cause awful traffic I hope they scoop him up before my bus gets here." Needless to say my friend was horrified and I got endless dirty looks. why do I say I'm fine when it's obvious I'm not? why's it so hard to tell you what I want? why can't you just read my mind? | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jun. 01 | I don't know what's more sickening... The fact that these people taunted this twat to jump... or the fact that I actually laughed out loud at this. Still, very funny overall. ;-)  Thine In Honor, FallenAingL "We each play out the part fate has written for us... Free will, is an illusion!" -Kain Goofbahgs, Unite!! | ||||

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Sep. 00 | You know have you ever been in traffic so long that you say "I hope that someone died up ahead and I see the fucking bloody body?" I wouldn't send her a card saying get well, I'd send her a card saying "try harder, fuck you fucking my commute you stupid fuck." You told her to jump, she jumped. I'd be happy someone finally listened to me.  The narrator in Fight Club is the man we will be, Patrick Bateman in American Psycho is the man we want to be Eliza Dushku- Hotter Than Brittny | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | Suicide is one of natures tools to weed out the weak. Another is cheering some stupid fucking idiot on. Sign me up on the side of sending a card saying to do it again. Don't try to kill yourself, kill yourself!  It looks just like a TeleFunken U-47, you'll love it. With leather? | ||||
