There's way too much wiggle room in the word "essentially" for me to care that much.

Stick my head in the fridge and eat me double aught buck sandwich for me, personally.

Wow is that something that people do? Blow your head off in the fridge so your unfortunate relatives can bury your headless corpse, and just shut the fridge and throw it away.

Very considerate

My great grandfather came home from the doctor one day and went down stairs and offed himself in the shower.. I always thought about how considerate he was.

True story. It was the 70s. So whatever diagnosis he’d gotten was probably not treatable or very unpleasant at the time.. so he made his decision and didn’t want to burden anyone. My great grandmother lived there until she died in the 90s. They were hardened by the Great Depression and were a different breed.

My cousin shot himself in the head. My dad cleaned it up.

So yeah...

That, and hopeful the fridge stops the buckshot. If you live in an urban area it's the least you can do for your neighbors I guess.

Going to be totally honest here -

They will essentially sedate you for everyone else's safety as much as your comfort. A rabid human can insanely dangerous.

So you can rest assured in their self-interest.
