He never judged other cultures. He went to Iran and ate pizza with ketchup with kids riding fast in cars. He ate fried chicken with a woman in Saudi Arabia. He told the truth about Vietnam War, said he would like to Kill Henry Kissinger for Cambodia. He went to Africa and had love for the people. He did learn mistakes when he went to Haiti, he ate food, a bunch of people were watching them because they were starving, so bourdain tried to buy some of them food and a near riot happened. Hungry people are desperate. Bourdain learned that politics plays a lot in countries.

Yep, it is usually common that people seem normal outside and inside they may have turmoil. I would believe on the inside he was debating suicide the entire time. You just never know what is going on inside peoples minds.

This is true but within that week she was also seen with someone else holding hands. Some journalist. They pulled the pics upon news of the suicide. It would make sense he caught wind of this and committed suicide. Case closed.

Just a few hours before his death, Asia posted this on instagram

Asia with French journalist week of Bourdain suicide.

I would hate to think that Anthony Bourdain, who had everything going for him, and everything to live for, would kill himself over that.

I feel same. What I found most interesting about the pictures is they all wear watches. Who does that with a smartphone?

Muddying the waters there Furry?

Surprise, surprise, Fox is only mentioning his suicide but not his show or how he humanized other cultures, which right wingers hate. Typical.

Most people who commit suicide don't do it for those reasons.

Of all the stuff I post and you have to attack me like that and can't even communicate like a normal human being. You know why many of us left PR. You guys just go there to argue. You won't find me and many others there. Very much stating I believe suicide over relationship is wrong. And your other friend trying to justify suicide towards me, what a bunch of pleasant nice people. Laughable.

Trying to justify suicide towards me. What does that mean? You are the one on both suicide threads saying flippant things like break-up suicides - case closed. And this gem - From what I'm understanding from spiritual leader is it will become more and more prevalent. That is some meaningless bullshit right there.

I never got the spiritual leader thing...

That post was meant for 2freaky but no I don't understand your twisted logic. Another reason why I stay out of PR and others don't go there. Quit stirring shit.

Love is number one reason for suicide: expert

MANILA, Philippines - Love may be the first thing that a person considers when entering a relationship, but it is also the number one reason why one commits suicide, a marriage and family counselor said.

Quit stirring shit? You say ridiculous things, post gigantic in-our-face photos and never miss a disturbing detail. All the time acting like you are spiritually above the rest of us. At least I can carry on an actual conversation.

To me it was disturbing for other orgers to post that suicide is bravery. It goes against everything I believe in spiritually. If people are feeling suicidal seek help.

There is a interesting debate about that meme on the Reddit link I posted. Gayle added the "most cases".

Maybe Gayle reads the org. Please see post #1 on the Kate Spade thread.

Lots of good comments here.

One of the things some people pointed out about that meme is that for them depression is NOT a temporary problem.

CapOnFoam

"Or, you're just so TIRED of having to keep going that you just want it all to stop. Imagine waking up every morning and having to go out and run all day long. Run until you go to bed. Then wake up the next day and do it again. And the next. And the next. No end in sight for the rest of your life.

You're so fucking TIRED of having to run, of struggling every day, of being so totally exhausted from barely making it all day. You start to wish you could just stop all the running. That tomorrow you'd do anything not to have to run. Anything to make it stop, to end the exhaustion and the struggle.

The call to end it sounds like amazing relief. You wouldn't have to run anymore. You wouldn't be exhausted anymore. It would finally be over. That's what it's like. Wanting some fucking rest from the exhaustion and struggle of existing. You know others will hurt, but they'll heal over time."

Depression, for many, is not a temporary problem...but death comes to us all, sooner or later. The trick is to try to find value in this life and a reason to continue on and not rush to what is a permanent end.

I'm not saying I agree with the meme or not but there's a good discussion around it.

Something similar I've said before about suicide is you're going to die anyway. Comes with the birth certificate. Not sure if people in that state consider it that way. Think it's ending the pain in their life more than wanting death.

Watches are part of fashion and accessories and should be appreciated. Smartphones are nothing compared to a beautiful timepiece. WTF??

Did not know this....

I thought most people knew Sid Vicious was a moron.

Either way, this adds something else (possibly) to a motive. If directed at Bourdain (and not in praise of Bourdain somehow... if he was known as a Sid Vicious of the culinary show) this would be a direct link. Heartbroken guy, replaced for younger lookalike (somewhat)... possibility.

Some people dont like being made an ass of. Could that have been the last straw? Any details on that?
