I’m finding it hard to see the funny when the joke is casually making light of suicide…

Imagine coming into a shitpost thread with this attitude.

My dad killed himself when I was 5. So, yeah, I don’t think suicide is funny.

Sorry to hear that.
But you’re gonna see shit on the Internet that may upset you. My suggestion is to block or ignore it

It’s not making fun of suicide. It’s not glorifying it or making it seem like a good thing. It’s poking fun at Guy Feieri, and how he loves flavor so much he’d season a bullet even in the depths of despair. Taking suicide seriously is a prerequisite to enjoying the joke.
Being exposed to triggering material sucks, and I’m sorry for your loss. I hope you can get to a place where you’re comfortable engaging with humor around this topic some day!

Understandable as the subject may be super sensitive to some, even triggering to others. Throughout the last year I was in your place due to a family case of it. It may help to block some communities and stay in super family friendly communities/websites. Stay safe and healthy.

Yeah but it has barbecue sauce

It’s easier to accept the grim reality we live in when you can make fun of it.

Yep. People who work with death like first responders and pathologists are known to have a dark sense of humor. Helps to make things easier.

My dad was a fire fighter and they referred to the charred corpses as “crispy critters”

Gallows humor, I believe it’s called.
