And if you have a kid and you’re 28 and it’s all the more sad and too short. That kid doesn’t get to have a dad while going through school, getting his first girlfriend, learning to drive, graduation, getting out on their own, starting their own family, etc. Even if you don’t have a kid, it’s young if you had plans on starting a family and career. Didn’t get to enjoy what kids bring to life, didn’t get to live up to potential in your career.Would be 17 years here, but same. And I love how stating a simple fact apparently rustled some jimmies. I'm not happy the guy killed himself or anything, but 28 really isn't all that young. At that point you've had a decade of being an adult, and 7 years of legal boozing. More than enough time to realize that life can be pretty shitty, have worked a job or three, and maybe spawned a kid or two.
I guess if you’re a deadbeat loser with no ambitions at 28 then fine, it’s old enough. Dying at 28 when all I had were shitty jobs and drinking would’ve been fine I guess.
