It appears as though many people are deciding to go without putting down a string of words or a sentence. This trend started way back in 2002. Because of the recession gripping the country, many people are feeling the same way about the suicide note: "Is there really a point to it at all?" With suicide letters a thing of the past, it seems that many people may turn to assembling collages to portray their final thoughts. The collages will then be destroyed or recycled for school projects that an angry eighth grader may use to impress his shitty teacher.
I met some morose people who commented on this anachronism--the suicide note. One man quipped: "I've always been an environmentalist....so it goes without saying that I wouldn't want to waste a piece of paper." A sad lady who had just been laid off two times in the past month said: "I'm not sure suicide letters are cool anymore...I don't think anyone is taking the time to write one. We're all so busy these days...if you're going to do it, just fucking do it already. No one cares about your sad thoughts...the world will go on without you."
