But like real question: Why do people ask these type of questions?
It’s easier and generally more acceptable to ask here than in the grocery store.
At Ralph’s you can only use the express line if you haven’t murdered anyone that day.
Because it’s for busy people on their way to their murder plans I suppose
Damn, guess I’ll have to take these shovels through normal checkout, hopefully bodies in my car doesn’t start rotting before I get a chance to bury them.
“These egg prices are going to make me wait in the long line today…”
In a grocery store, you don’t have to ask, people just tell you.
So I’ll actually answer since I’ve never shared this even though the post is making a joke.
It’s not really murder I’m sure, but it has stuck with me forever. I took care of my grandmother through the end stages of her cancer as some form of “hospice” care. I was the one that gave her morphine when she needed it and essentially within days of starting it she became more and more zombified and then passed away. It happened within roughly a week. It was only after all that did learn about morphine toxicity in the elderly and realized that even though it helped her with the pain I’m pretty sure I “killed” her. :(
For what it’s worth, if i ever find myself elderly with end stage cancer, I would consider it a kindness to be able to go out painlessly and relatively quickly.
100%. At that point your life is over already. Dose me up on morphine and let me sail away into the void peacefully.
Euthanasia isnt really murder.
I mean if someone has a terminal illness and asked you to give them cyanide and you do, that not really murder.
Sure the law views it differently, but it morally not murder.
Yeah, and it was all “above board” as they say so I’m fine as far as the law goes. Doctor prescribed, followed hospice advice, etc…
Still considering it was the morphine that actually did her in, being the one who gave it to her made me feel responsible for her passing in a way.
I’m sorry for your pain and guilt. If I was in your grandmas position, though, morphine toxicity is how I’d prefer to go.
I think it’s not so nice from the doctor, to not warn you about what’s going to happen. Especially since you were the one carrying it out. I guess as a professional, they should know about the consequences of drugs they prescribe. Unless they’re somewhat incompetent, this may very well have been the intended/welcome/unavoidable outcome. And I think you’d have deserved a heads-up. Idk if that had helped you. But it’s probably hard. Some relatives will not let go. And you can’t refuse palliative care. So maybe the ethical way is to not talk too much after you got to a certain point.
Where I live it’s legal. There’s paperwork, a psychological interview of the patient and it must be done by somebody who is allowed to do so. My grandfather went like that. Even though it’s sad, I’m glad he got to go before it became even worse.
So people with end stage cancer do often deteriorate like that, the morphine is unlikely to have caused her death but it would have definitely made her more comfortable. You did the right thing for your grandma. You didn’t speed up her death, you cared for her through a difficult time. Thank you for being there for them.
If this is playing on your mind get in touch with the hospice/ palliative care team who were involved and talk it through with them. They will be happy to help and won’t mind you calling at all, even if it is a long time since it happened.
‘If I’m gonna die, at least I wanna be high.’

Seriously tho, the only death that could be better is being high in a puppy pit.
I’m so sorry that happened, truly. Honestly, though, you deserved to have better medical guidance during that time and it really isn’t your fault for not knowing. I think that at that point, though, it was way more important for her to be comfortable above all else. She was lucky to have you there.
I work in palliative care, and if she was in pain and you gave her morphine according to prescription, you did the right thing.
I recently murdered a bowl of mac and cheese. It was premeditated.
Savage
They could have had a family!
I raised this Mac and cheese from a box. I fed it milk. I kept it warm on the stovetop. And I’d do it again. Probably Saturday as I’m watching some sports matches.

I think I’ve genocided a bunch of bacteria.
If bacteria could talk, they’d call me hitler.

I coughed without a mask near an old lady ranting about liberals in a super conservative little town in Texas during COVID.
Well good thing that the virus was a hoax, so the lady was probably fine, amirite?
I mean, I wasn’t sick at the time. When I was, I stayed home. I just did it to terrify her.
It’s good that you stay home when sick, but just FYI, you can have covid without realizing it. Roughly 1 in 5 cases never get symptoms but are still contagious. That’s one of the reasons lockdowns were so effective. We couldn’t just rely on people staying away when they are sick because they might have it without the sickness. Fuck covid
I’ve murdered my soul working at an office
Damn, I got bad grades once and my mom literally murdered me.
Ouch, still hurts this day.
I’m not really sure how it works but I was told I gobbled up my brother as an embryo in the womb. He was yummy.
I had these really annoying ducks near my house and I would shoot at them, but missed a lot. The neighbor’s dog would pop out of the tall grass and LAUGH at me each time. It made me so mad I tried to murder that dog multiple times but he always got away.
That looks like it could be entertaining!
If you think those ducks were a pain, you should have gone across to your other neighbor’s house where they just had teeny tiny clay discs flying around.
I’ve made an inexcusable mistake that caused someone to die. It’s been 20-ish years, still not over it. Is anyone even allowed to get over something like that and go on with their lives?
People ask because murderers exist, and if they’ve served their sentence, they might be willing to answer and have interesting stories?
Is anyone even allowed to get over something like that and go on with their lives?
If it was a mistake and you didn’t intend to actually kill anyone, then yes I think you’re allowed to move on at some point and even forgive yourself for that.
Mistakes happen. Often it’s just bad luck. There’s no benefit in beating yourself up about it. What happened has happened and there’s no going back. Grieving and regretting and feeling bad and such is normal and okay but I’d say 20 years is enough time to start thinking of forgiveness and moving on.
Its been 20 years. Why not share the story. Its an anonymous forum. Most will assume any stories here are made up. It’s therapeutic as fuck, like writing a letter you’ll never send. Just giving a perspective most who know you would never give.🍻
There’s doctor-patient-confidentiality involved.
…yeah. 😟
Reddit: “Women of Reddit, how do I make you give me sex?”
Females of Reddit, what is the sexistest thing a man ever did while having the sexist sex that you have ever sexed?
(emphasis on the “Females” part becuase: maximum neckbeard cringe)
When incels say “female” I just assume they mean iron man
People like to ask edgy questions to get imaginary points or to feel important by getting hidden information, people are goofy.
Why are people religious? In part because it’s human nature to want to know things that other people don’t know. Fake hidden knowledge is a sweet treat to a truth starved brain
Religion is seriously fucked up, actually.
If you can get people to believe in magic they have never seen because of stories that never happened to explain an afterlife that nobody knows about, you can easily get them to also fork over a considerable amount of their income to avoid a fate that will never happen.
Nevermind that you can also produce some fearless soldiers who will gladly hand over their life for no real reason.
Eesh. Humans are weird.
Yeah.
I once shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die.
Damn, I shot a bunch of men on a battlefield once, even use gas grenades in the trenches. I love war crimes.
People keep calling me a “noob” because I keep dying.
But its fine, I just call the people with different uniforms “Aimbot Cheaters”
Sue, is that you?
I once killed a man for a ham sandwich, and I don’t even like ham.
No Mr Officer.
I have never commited a felony.
Welp, you missed your chance at becoming president. You’re free to go.
Free to go straight to jail for being a woke lib, haha gottem!
Free to go face first in the pavement
“STOP RESISTING!”
bones crunching
Oh yeah!
Hack the planet!
