Girl Commits Suicide Over LHC Doomsday Predictions

Despite repeated assurances by experts that the Large Hadron Collider would not bring about the end of the world, it appears that one 16-year-old girl in central India decided to commit suicide by drinking pesticide rather than face that remote possibility. Her father noted that several Indian programs aired doomsday predictions in the days leading up to the test run, which left her inconsolable. As tragic as this is, I can't help but wonder why someone would rather go out by drinking pesticide than being painlessly vaporized.

Damn shame,it's not even at full vaporizing power yet...

Somebody didn't think out their situation very clearly...

Really, all the girl needed to do was to wait a few days and see if the world ended or not. Perhaps the anxiety of waiting was too much for her to bear.
