ouch. Driven to suicide is bad enough, but to add insult to injury is really disheartening. I've been rejected for blood donation, too, fwiw. I haven't died, though, so I guess I can't totally relate.
When I was a teenager, we all sorta knew that "Poker eyes out 'n skullfuck 'er" was sort of a figure of speech. A braggadocio, as it were. I'm taken a bit aback as I learn that my elected government takes it a more literally than I did. Serves me right, I suppose. These bureaucrats were appointed by some of the people that I helped elect. It sort of vindicates, however, my policy for the past decade or so of voting against every incumbent for every elected office.
