    When we were at school some time ago we remember people doing it to themselves and making themselves pass out. We never joined in, but it’s likely they have breathing problems to this day.

      Oh goodness, I didn’t realize I was talking with a plural system till just now!

      Ah, either way, yes, I also as a kid in school … well I can’t say I ever directly saw it, but I definitely heard about other kids asphyxiating themselves for… fun?

      Yeah, seemed like a bad idea to me as well.

      … A mind is a terrible thing to waste.

        Glad you recognised us for what we are and weren’t horrible about it. So many on lemmy are, sadly.

        Ah, we actually did see it happening, but passed by them most of the time.

        Yeah, we agree, intentionally causing irreparable damage to one or many’s self or selves is not a good thing.
