The Suicide Booth

Lets face it life sucks and every generation is becoming more nihilistic than the last having absolutely no desire to live long lives. This little invention makes suicide easy and hassle free. It removes the overriding fear brought on by survival instincts and disintegrates the corpse leading to easy clean up and virtually no wait time.

This device would be great in countries with high suicide rates like Japan and Finland. Whoever invents a working suicide booth will be making a killing, pun intended.

waste of a perfectly good body IMO.

Why not just invent a drug that will induce a memory wipe or a really serious case of Amnesia then "train" the volunteer to do productive stuff instead?

Expensive and time consuming. The suicide booth is an untapped billion dollar market and it will also help deal with the overpopulation problem.

I hate to be the one to point out the obvious, but this invention won't get off the ground. No matter how practical it appears, politics will not allow it to be successful. Too many oppositions on moral or ethical grounds.

Yes making Suicide Booths is easy. But when you factor in the millions of zealot religious fags in the world the idea becomes not feasible becuase it won't be generally accepted by our society.

Damn... The things I'd test with this machine...

"What if I came on to one of my fourth grade students?"

"What if chimichangas start coming in 6 packs instead of 8 and 10 packs?"

"What if that blood from the misquito in the urine I drank contained HIV?"

Or if technology becomes sophisticated enough to selectively alter memory then it will probably be the case that problems leading people to want to commit suicide will become non-issues.

A lot of will be intruiged by the fact they they can get Suicidal people to do the memory wipe/Amnesia thing.

I believe that there is a TV show that explores this concept

Anyone who is suicidal is mentally ill. Giving them access to a suicide booth would be like attaching a helmet to everyone with the flu that shoots you in the head when you sneeze.

Oh, ok. I guess the homosexual thing didn't make sense.

Well, the whole urine fetish of mine started with me urinating on myself in the shower, and over time it escalated to occasionally tasting and drinking it. Honestly, I don't know why I do it, but I think a lot of it has to do with smell (the most primitive sense).

If you're dead you have no more problems. It's as simple as that. There are people in mental hospitals who are beyond help, the Suicide Booth would not only make money but decrease the burden on the tax payers.
