    Kurt Cobain has probably been gone longer than these people have been alive.

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

        No… No that can’t be right. 1994 was like… shit.

            And then the next days, news were all about teens who committed suicide (or failed to, ending up as vegetables) in a similar fashion.

            That was weird.

                Not denying but it sounds surprising to me. I wonder how it works

                  Yeah I was also really surprised by the contagiousness of suicide. When I first saw the article I linked I thought “how cruel they won’t give a student a space in the yearbook, it would help the grieving family so much”. Then I read it all and it made sense. I feel horrible for those families but at the same time they likely don’t want to be responsible for other families suffering what they have gone through just to have a photo of their child in the yearbook.

            I don’t remember how I heard about it, but I was in the middle of my “fuck everyone and everything people enjoy” phase of being a teenager, so I was probably happy about it unfortunately.

              I was 14 and I remember it quite well. All us teens in the park behind our apartment building had long discussion about it. I also remember all the copy cat suicides that followed his death to.

              But yes Nirvana is now classic rock!

      Kurt Cobain would have utterly hated Chaya Raichik. I don’t know about Kris Noviselic (apparently he’s gotten a bit weird politically) but I’d bet Dave Grohl despises her.

        For anyone wondering, Chaya Raichik is the reactionary ghoul who runs Libs of TikTok. I actually had no idea this was a semi-famous person until you actually made a comment about them.

      Yeah probably. I think she’s about my age and I don’t care to find out. I was born a few months after Cobain died and turn 30 this year
