What’s the joke? That firefighters recover the bodies of suicide victims?

How is that funny? I’d probably be kicked out of my brigade if I shared shit like this.

EDIT: love that I’m being downvoted because I’m not laughing at a ‘joke’ that reminds me of the murder and suicide victims I’ve had to search for.

That it's someone you know. Specifically, in this one, that's is just some 19 year old kid who is a volunteer ff and they experience this horrific event where there's some gruesome death and on top of it, they know the person. It's dark humor.

I’m a volunteer firefighter who’s gone out looking for murder and suicide victims. I don’t find this shit funny.

It's not funny per se. It's super messed up. But you use dark humor to cope. It's a coping mechanism.

Well, this isn’t helping me cope, it’s literally just making me remember things I really don’t want to think about.

Also, love the people downvoting me just because I don’t like this shit.
