Bal Raj Tuli, J.
1. This petition for the winding-up of Messrs. Suraj Bachat Yojna Private Ltd., Amritsar (hereinafter referred to as ' the company '), has been filed by the Registrar of Companies under Clause (e) Section 433 read with Section 439(5) of the Companies Act, 1956 (hereinafter called ' the Act'), on the ground that the financial position of the company was found unsatisfactory on a scrutiny of the balance-sheet of the company for the period ending March 31, 1969. The company had been incurring losses since its incorporation. During the years ending March 31, 1966, March 31, 1967, March 31, 1968, and March 31, 1969, the company incurred losses of Rs. 24,173.42, Rs. 19,264.25, Rs. 8,841.40 and Rs. 10,602.61 respectively. The total losses of the company thus accumulated to Rs. 62,881.77 on March 31, 1969, as against the paid-up capital of Rs. 5,600 only. The net tangible assets of the company on March 31, 1969, were valued at Rs. 1,86,492.70 while the liabilities amounted to Rs. 2,44,409.47 leaving a deficit of Rs. 57,916.77. From these figures, which have been taken from the balance-sheet for the year ending March 31, 1969, it is concluded that the company is unable to pay its debts within the meaning of Section 433(e) of the Act and should be wound up. The Registrar of Companies requested the Regional Director, Northern Region, Company Law Board, Kanpur, for the necessary sanction to file this petition under Section 439(5) of the Act which was granted. Written statement was filed by the respondent-company in which it has been denied that the company is unable to pay its debts and various pleas have been taken. To that written statement, replication was filed by the Registrar of Companies and the following issues were framed for decision :
' 1. Whether the sanction accorded by the Regional Director, Department of Company Affairs, Kanpur, under Section 439(5) of the Companies Act was invalid ?
2. Whether the company is unable to meet its debts ?
3. If issue No. (1) is not proved and issue No. (2) is proved, is the company liable to be wound up '
2. On behalf of the petitioner, Shri Krishan Kumar, Senior Technical Assistant, Office of the Registrar of Companies, Punjab, Jullundur, appeared as the only witness and reiterated what has been stated above. On behalf of the respondents no evidence has been adduced. I, therefore, proceed to decide these issues on the material on the record.
Issue No. 1:
3. The leave to file petition for winding-up was granted by the Regional Director, Company Law Board, Northern Region, Kanpur, by an order dated January 1, 1971. That order was sent to the Registrar of Companies and has been produced in original and has been marked as exhibit P-17. The signatures of the Regional Director on this order have been proved by the witness. I, therefore, hold that the order granting sanction to the Registrar of Companies to file the winding-up petition is in order and issue No. 1 is decided against the respondents.
Issue No. 2:
4. This is the crucial issue in the case. It has been stressed by the learned counsel for the petitioner that the balance-sheets of the company exhibit a very sad state of affairs and it is clear beyond doubt that the company has been incurring losses and is unable to meet its liabilities. It was, however, admitted by the only witness produced by the petitioner that no depositor or subscriber or creditor of the company had made any complaint to the Registrar of Companies to the effect that his claim had not been paid. The Registrar formed the opinion that the company was unable to pay its debts only on the basis of losses incurred by the company and the deficiency in the value of its assets over the liabilities. The Regional Director, Company Law Board, Kanpur, issued notice dated May 16, 1970, under Section 439(6) of the Act to the company in order to afford it an opportunity of making its representation, if any, against the prayer of the Registrar of Companies for sanction to file a winding-up petition on the ground that the company was unable to pay its debts, a copy of which is exhibit P-10. In reply to that notice, the company submitted a detailed explanation on June 13, 1970, in the form of a chart, exhibit P-16, showing that the financial position of the company was neither bad nor was it unable to pay its debts. But, curiously enough, the Regional Director brushed aside the explanation merely by stating that it was not considered satisfactory. In the explanation tendered by the company, the position of the chit fund, subscriptions received and the liabilities to be paid were explained. In the ultimate analysis, the following position was shown in the explanation :
' Income
Amount to be received 4,48,530-00
Lucky winners
Total income at the end of Scheme
-50 months
Less expenses
4,50,000 00
Calculation in other similar EPS
1. 30x1
2. 10x1
3. 25x1
4. 10x2
5. 10x1
Gross profits after 50 months4,14,160-10
One year profit
Approximate expenses for one year 25,000-00
Net profit 78,540-00 '
5. From the order of the Regional Director, it is not clear on what matters the explanation was not considered to be satisfactory. According to this explanation, although there were losses in the first few years, there was scope for making profit when the schemes of chit fund were concluded. This explanation tendered by the company has not even been referred to by the only witness produced by the Registrar of Companies and, therefore, it is not easy to say that the explanation given by the company had been properly considered and rebutted by the Registrar of Companies by any facts and figures. It is also not so clear why the explanation tendered by the respondent-company was not considered to be correct and satisfactory. The legislature enacted a safeguard for the companies not to be harassed by frivolous or doubtful-of-success petitions for its winding-up by the Registrar in Section 439(6) of the Act by enjoining on the Central Government not to accord its sanction to the Registrar under Section 439(5) unless an opportunity is afforded to the company of making representations, if any. The delegate of the Central Government, while according sanction, has a solemn duty to perform of informing himself about the true position of the company in the light of the explanations made by it. The explanations have to be considered with a judicial mind and outlook and are not to be discarded off-hand unless considered to be flimsy, fallacious or frivolous. It is not a mere formality to receive the explanations from the company and dismiss them as unsatisfactory without getting the doubts cleared. If the position exhibited by the balance-sheet of a company only is considered to be a sound reason for filing a petition for its winding-up, the provisions made in Sub-sections (5) and (6) of Section 439 for sanction by the Central Government lose all meaning and significance. Something more is required to be gone into and that is why the provision for an explanation by the company has been enacted. The spirit of this provision was completely lost sight of by the Regional Director who passed his order granting leave to the Registrar of Companies to file the present petition mechanically and without applying his mind to the explanation tendered by the company, It should be borne in mind that a mechanical sanction leads to incurring expenses by the State, harassment to the company and a set-back to its business which may prove to be quite damaging and costly.
6. In the instant case, after the receipt of the explanation from the company, the Registrar of Companies and the Regional Director should have applied their judicial minds to its consideration to come to the conclusion whether the picture depicted was true or not and if they had any doubts, they should have got them cleared by making a back reference to the company or calling an officer of the company for further explanation. It has been admitted by Krishan Kumar, witness, that the company showed a profit of Rs. 4,000 in the balance-sheet for the year ending March 31, 1971, It is thus clear from the various balance-sheets that the losses were decreasing every year and ultimately the company was on the way to make profits. There is substance in the argument of the learned counsel for the respondents that the subscriptions received from the members of the chit fund do not become liabilities till the chit matures. All the chits of the subscribers do not mature at one and the same time but mature at regulated intervals and the company has been able to meet its liabilities towards its subscribers whenever a chit matured. That is why no creditor of the company has come forward to support this petition and the only witness for the petitioner has admitted that no creditor of the company has made any complaint to the Registrar's office from which it can be reasonably inferred that the company has not been able to meet its liabilities whenever they accrued.
7. In order to determine whether a company is unable to pay its debts, the first matter to be considered is whether the company is able to meet its liabilities as and when they accrue due. Section 434 of the Companies Act enumerates the exigencies in which the company is deemed to be unable to pay its debts, and admittedly none of those exigencies are found in the present case. It has been admitted by Krishan Kumar, witness for the petitioner, that no complaint from any creditor of the company has been received in the office of the Registrar to the effect that the amount due to him had not been paid by the company. ' Debt' really means an amount which is due and can be claimed in praesenti by the creditor, so that if the demand is not met, the company can be said to be unable to pay its debts. But, if a debt has not yet accrued due, no demand can be made and it cannot be said that any debt is due by the company to any person. If the future liabilities of the company are to be taken into consideration, the future probable and reasonable income should also be taken into account. The mere fact that in the balance-sheet, the liabilities shown are more than the value of the present assets of the company, does not necessarily lead to the conclusion that the company will not be able to meet its liabilities when they accrue due. Veeraswami J. in A.C.K. Krishnaswami v. Stressed Concrete Constructions Private Ltd., [1964] 34 Comp. Cas. 6, 9 (Mad.) observed as under :
' It is true that as found in the affidavit of the Registrar, the liabilities of the company far exceed its assets as in 1962. But, it does not necessarily follow from it that the company is unable to pay its debts. A company may have liabilities more than its assets; but still may have, in particular circumstances, the capacity to meet demands from its creditors. No evidence has been placed before me beyond the affidavit of the Registrar that the company is really unable to pay its debts. The second ground for a winding-up order is, therefore, not made out. '
8. Reference may also be made to the judgment of Harbans Singh J. (as my Lord the Chief Justice then was) in S. Krishnamurthy, Registrar of Companies, Punjab v. Rohtak Hissar Transport Company (P.) Ltd., [1966] 36 Comp. Cas. 9, 14 (Punj.). to the following effect:
' .... the mere fact that the company's assets are less than its liabilities is, by itself, no ground for sending the company to winding up. The test laid down is that the company should be commercially solvent which means that the company should be in a position to meet its liabilities as and when they arise. '
9. As I have said above, the only basis for the conclusion of the Registrar of Companies that the company is unable to pay its debts is the position revealed by the balance-sheets filed in his office. No further investigation seems to have been made by the Registrar of Companies to find out the real nature of the business or the probable future income of the company which it was incumbent on the Registrar to do, in view of the explanation submitted by the company to the Regional Director in reply to his notice under Section 439(6) of the Act. In any case, it should have been explained by the Registrar of Companies either by appearing in the witness box or through some other witness why the explanation tendered by the company was not correct and believable. In the absence of such material on the record I am not satisfied that the Registrar of Companies and the Regional Director, Company Law Board, correctly formed the opinion that the company was unable to pay its debts and a winding-up petition should be filed against it on that ground. The only matter emphasised in the petition and by the learned counsel for the petitioner at the hearing is that the company suffered losses and its assets are less than its liabilities and, therefore, it could be legitimately inferred that the company was unable to pay its debts. The two facts emphasised by the petitioner and his counsel are not sufficient to come to the conclusion that the company is unable to pay its debts. Something more is to be proved, that is, the business of the company is such that the income to be derived by the company in future coupled with the present assets would not be sufficient to meet all the liabilities of the company when they accrue due. No such attempt has been made in the present case. This issue is accordingly decided in favour of the respondents and against the petitioner.
Issue No 3 :
10. In view of my decision on issue No. 2, this issue is decided in favour of the company, that is, that the company is not liable to be wound up.
11. In the result, this petition fails and is dismissed with costs.

Belarus -
The last wall
Doors open, windows closed
Photos: Giovanni Pietracaprina
In Belarus another European wall fell, but very few have realised it. When President Lukashenko announced that for the citizens of 80 countries a visa was no more needed to enter Belarus, somebody thought this was a kind of a revolution. There was just only one condition: everyone must enter Belarus via the Minsk international airport and stay in the country no more than five days. It was January 9th, 2017.
Since then, this small republic squeezed between Poland and Russia, kept on going with its usual life: the Soviet-era murals are still on their walls, meticulously preserved, the rooms of the immense sanatoria are mostly empty, in the country women still knot their headscarves on their heads and move around with marshrutkas (shared taxis).
The so-called "last dictatorship in Europe" didn't collapse, just yet, maybe because "dictatorship" is a label EU, USA or OECD use for those countries they dont know, or understand much.
Seen through the eyes of local artist Darya Golova, Belarus is another world: tattooed youngters walking quietly around towns, kids of the suburbs hanging around with their hoverboards, punk teenagers dreaming of adventure with Hello Kitty in their pink bedrooms.
Today's Belarus is indeed keeping an eagle eye on its present, as utopia and dystopia live together, and the border that once looked impenetrable, now is looking at the world in search of a new identity. The austere statues of Lenin and Dzerzinskij are now in some repository, but just to be polished, while the severe face of President Lukashenko is everywhere: among the souvenir cards in fishermen's cabins and near the Kalashnikov guns turned into vodka bottles to be sold to tourists.

Artificial intelligence is a powerful tool which is ripe to be exploited by criminals, according to report.
(CCM) — Artificial intelligence may be used by criminals, terrorists, and even rogue states to turn drones into missiles, produce fake videos to influence elections, and create automated hacking tools that can steal data in seconds.
That is the warning contained in the Malicious Use of Artificial Intelligence report produced by a team of experts from academia, civil society, and industry.
Within the next five years, drones could be trained with facial recognition software to seek out and hit a specific individual, hackers could impersonate people (such as the CEO of a company) by synthesizing their voice, and technologies such as AlphaGo, Google's Go-playing AI, could be used to find vulnerabilities in software in seconds that hackers could then exploit.
Other scenarios the report's authors predict include causing self-driving vehicles to crash and using AI to direct swarms of thousands of micro-drones remotely.
"We believe there is reason to expect attacks enabled by the growing use of AI to be especially effective, finely targeted, difficult to attribute, and likely to exploit vulnerabilities in AI systems," the report's authors conclude.
They recommend that AI designers do more to prevent the technology they develop being misused and call for governments to consider new laws to crack down on AI-based crimes.

GENEVA (Reuters) - A proposed conference to try to end two years of conflict in Syria could take place on the weekend of June 15-16 in Geneva, diplomatic sources said on Tuesday.
The idea for the conference was hatched at a meeting between U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov earlier this month. Lavrov said on Monday that holding the meeting would be a "tall order" but he saw some chance of success.

Day 6: Favorite Diety
Anyway, this is kind of an odd question, compared to the others so far on the list. Everything else so far has either been personal (how started, favorite dice) or universal (Race, Class, Game World). Deities in RPGs don't apply to everyone. Not playing a cleric or paladin? Who actually chooses a deity then?
My favorite RPG deity is St Cuthbert. My most recent religious character, a half-orc paladin followed him. He was around for most of my early RP days.
And he doesn't live in the Realms.

Grenades Change Plans
Was playing COD4 with my buddy Heath a couple days ago when the oddest thought hit me. GRENADES CHANGE PLANS. Let me explain. I had the perfect plan, to win the match. I had perched myself on a ledge with a great view but hidden in the shadows and I knew Heath was coming my way. With my trusty sniper rifle I scoped my opponent in and just as I was about to take the shot I hear the tiny sound of inevitable destruction. That sound was that of a grenade landing near my feet. Needless to say my plan of stealth turned into a desperate scramble to save myself from the resulting explosion, and that's when I thought… "Grenades change plans".

I love the juxtaposition of these micro-moments captured in high mega-pixel party 'point and shoot' against the painstaking translation into analog art. My fancy is tickled even further by the medium; Bic ballpoint pen.
Spanish artist Juan Francisco Casas uses up to four 14p ballpoint pens (four?! no wonder I always lost them before they were empty...) to create his incredibly photorealistic drawings, measuring up to 10ft (3 meters) high.
Having spent thousands of hours myself surreptitiously scribbling my way (with a Bic ball point...) through my most excruciating classes, when I look at his work, I can almost smell that blue ink...
Rock on Juan, rock on.

Recently a fellow blogger — who just happens to be a bona fide medical doctor — left a comment outlining a doctor's perspective on CFS and fibromyalgia.
With permission, I'm posting that comment here, as I found it hugely insightful and deserving of a wider audience.
From a medical perspective, both CFS and fibromyalgia are diagnoses of exclusion.
That is to say that you can only really diagnose them when you have considered and ruled out all other possible conditions that can be tested for and treated. When you have exhausted all possibilities, then you use a term like CFS or fibromyalgia.
To be honest, it's just a label. As you quite rightly pointed out, many people labelled with CFS or fibromyalgia probably have completely different reasons for their symptoms. And unfortunately, the labels carry a stigma.
A lot of doctors will subconsciously put you down as a troublemaker…

This might go to explain what is on my workdesk today. Here it is in it's full glory for WOYWW. If you haven't shared your desk yet where have you been. Pop over to Julia's and join in with the ever growing phenomenon which is WOYWW. You're bound to meet some great people and find some totally inspirational blogs.
I sell a few cards in my hairdresser's shop, which is how I fund my crafty habit and over the months I've discovered that the cards that sell really well are pretty decoupage with ribbons and bows. My lovingly stamped and coloured ones tend to be much slower to go. It's quite nice though to craft without too much thought, it's quite therapeutic and here you can see a really pretty Hunkydory die cut decoupage kit in progress. I have mounted them on a Marianne D die I had for my birthday. It's quite big and the perfect size for these.
Here's one of the finished cards
Just to remind me of "proper" crafting I have a beautiful card on my desk sent to me by my lovely blogging buddy Sally.
Thanks for stopping by and I will do my best to get round as many desk as I can this week although I may still be visiting next Tuesday, there are so many nowadays so bear with me.

Blimey, your poor hands after all that cutting! Maybe your daughter will treat you to a nice hand massage and lots of soothing handcream? :-)
It's funny isn't it, the cards some people prefer? I've sold some that I wasn't massively keen on yet others that I prefer haven't always sold as well. I guess there's nowt as queer as folk!
Have you had howling gales over your way today? It's been crazy here, wind battering the house, rain drumming on the windows. Please come back sunshine!

Your desk always looks interesting Lisa! At the moment mine is full of punches that I am taking to another Retreat (yes another one!) this weekend. Thought everyone might like to have a go with them. Oh yes and my DT card for Just Tracys!
Hope you are ok and that Freya is still creating beautiful things! Jill x

Your hands may be sore but I bet you got loads of satisfaction seeing the kids decorating their spectacles. That's a very pretty card and I too love that Marianne Die but I can never get the embossed bit right.
Thanks for your comments on Warren too - I was pleased how the image sat on the card candy so please use that idea if you can - it's nice to know there's some inspiration getting out lol.

We definitely need a pic of those specs!
Re the cards, there is no accounting for taste. It was the same when I did silversmithing and often things didn't sell then I'd go somewhere else and the same items flew out.
Really lovely cards there with such detail.
Love Jo x
Thanks so much for your thoughts too, we're coming to terms with things here though it's hard.

I know just how you feel - I have ended up with a pain in my thumb from too much cutting I think! It's just as well we all have different tastes isn't it. Your card is really pretty but your stamping is very you! Cheers Claire x

Oh Lisa, those decoupage cards are just beautiful so I can see why they sell well.
I've never used Hunkydory myself but I did see them on TV the other day and came very close to buying a kit but I resisted the temptation.
Happy Crafting!

Agree that peoples aste often seems odd! By the way, if you often have to cut out a lot of things like that, try the Fiskars( I think) shear scissors. My DIL used to do a lot of this for her kids school crafting, and I suggested them to her- she said it made it much less painful!They have a nice sharp point to for fiddly stuff. Shaz #118

36 pairs of spectacles - wow that is some task. hope the project went well for the children. Would love to see some pictures (if they are allowed).
Lovely card you have made and those look interesting on your desk. I can vouch for what you say - people do seem to prefer non stamped cards when you are selling.
If you go to Harrogate show do pop over and say hello - I'll be dem'ing the dies on Oyster Stamps.

I hope all the children liked decorating the spectacles you so lovingly cut. Mothers do the most wonderful things for their babies! I agree with who ever said you can't tell what people will like enough to buy. Hope your sales are going well! Lovely desk, lovely cards!

I can just imagine how sore your hands were after cutting out all those 'glasses' - hope you didn't cut out the decoupage as well. The card is very pretty - I can see why it's popular :) Love the card from Sally. Thanks for dropping by my blog and leaving such nice comments. Hugs, Elizabeth x #97

UN warns Darfur falling into anarchy, lawlessness
Sudan's Darfur region could fall into anarchy unless the 15-nation Security Council takes bold action and thousands of African Union troops arrive quickly, a senior U.N. official warned on Thursday.
Jan Pronk, the U.N. envoy for Darfur, told the council and a news conference the government appeared to be losing control in some areas of Darfur, with brutal militia it once recruited and the Sudanese military taking their own decisions.
He said rebels opposing the government were gaining territory but fighting each other for private gain so "we may soon find Darfur is ruled by warlords."
Some 70,000 people are estimated to have died in Darfur and 1.2 million have been driven from their homes into camps.
In early 2003, two African rebel groups revolted against alleged unjust treatment by Khartoum and Arab nomads over land and water resources. Arab militia, known as Janjaweed, helped the government retaliate and then raped, killed and pillaged African villagers.
Pronk said the Security Council, which plans to visit Nairobi on Nov. 18 and 19, had to put pressure on all the parties or "the United Nations would have no credibility."
The council's main mission is to make sure a peace accord is finally signed after years of talks between the Khartoum government and rebels in the south, which most believe also could be a blueprint for power sharing in Darfur, in the western part of the country.
Pronk said the council should threaten to cut off aid to the south, including a planned U.N. peacekeeping mission, if a deal were not signed by the end of the year. This would also have an impact on Darfur where rebels believe the international community would intervene if the Janjaweed attacked.
And he said council members should make players in the Darfur crisis understand they would be responsible for war crimes and not have a seat in any power-sharing arrangement.
"They will listen to it if the big powers say it ... with one voice," Pronk told the news conference.
Pronk said the African Union, which has about 1,000 troops and monitors in Darfur, needed to send far more than the 4,000 planned for a real military operation but without any direct fighting.
"We have to speed up and enlarge the AU. They have to be everywhere where there is a lack of safety and a lack of security," he said. "We need a military operation, not just monitoring, but to be there."
Several diplomats and U.N. sources say privately the AU may not be able to do it alone and are hoping any U.N. peacekeepers in southern Sudan could help out in Darfur also.
Pronk said Arab tribes drove their neighbors off their land two years ago to get more space for themselves and their cattle in an act of "pure ethnic cleansing." But now it was payback time, with rebels stealing cattle "leading to a survival of the fittest and death for the weakest."
The Security Council read out a policy statement telling the Khartoum government to stop forced relocations of African villagers from their camps, as occurred on Tuesday.
It also condemned "sexual violence and hostage taking that are now being undertaken in Darfur."


text: South Jerusalem — A Progressive, Skeptical Blog on Israel, Judaism, Culture, Politics, and Literature: "The Palestinian owners of the land on which Migron stands went to court in 2006, with the help of Peace Now, to demand that the government remove the squatters on their property. Before the Court, the state admitted that the outpost was an egregious violation of the law but said it wanted to build a new neighborhood in a different settlement for the lawbreakers to enable a peaceful evacuation. The outpost settlers rejected that deal. If the Migron ruling achieved only moderate headlines, it was partly because March is a long way off and no one really believes the state will carry out the orders, and partly because the top acreage on newspaper and website front pages had already been seized by the growing economic protests of the July 14 movement."

The $3 billion research fund for Stem Cell research doled out last 2004 is obviously running out. Scientists are afraid that depletion could happen before actual tests. California voters decided to venture in this move towards finding cures for ailments like Parkinson's disease and spinal injuries. Looks like voters are in to infuse more money to continue the research with continuity.
Stem Cell research funds are now in its last $650 million, and scientists are urging Californians to chip in some more or researchers and scientific teams might be stalled from what they are doing. The 2004 fund is one of the biggest state funding on record, and it is about to run out.
There was an influx of scientific researchers from biologists to professions related to this study to the State of California. Jonathan Thomas, chairman of the California Institute of Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) expresses concern over the situation of stranding the collective data with their ready applications of stem cell research and testing, as reported by Nature.
Californians agreed to invest in the promising healing properties of Stem Cells. The move was known as Proposition 71, leading to a creation of a corporation which is CIRM. This action was in response to then President George Bush in 2001 disallowing federal funding to human embryonic stem cell research.
The first payout of funds was released two years later after its creation. There were 750 projects that followed and encouraging results were obtained. Last month, results of tests done to ten children with severe immunodeficiency diseases were released. This deficiency is commonly called the "bubble boy" syndrome and was partially funded by CIRM. After eight years, nine out of ten children grew up free of the bubble boy syndrome and could make out on their own without the need for injections or boosters, reports the Journal of Clinical Investigation.
To maximize the $650 million funds left, CIRM partnered with a North Carolina-based organization called QuintilesIMS in Durham. This organization will aid CIRM in its 40 novel trials and applications on Stem Cells towards 2020.
A group that calls themselves Americans for Cures led by Bob Kleine is rallying voters to dole out another round of payout to the tune of $5 billion. Kleine is one of those who led the establishment of CIRM. It looks like that 70% of Californians are willing to do just that.

hate to be so fascinating, but: here i am at work again! what can i tell you? well, to ease the pain a little bit, i brought my dog with me. and i wore short shorts. i also had a pedicure first, at a place where you sit in a massage chair while they do it. i am contemplating taking my last xanax, too. or maybe i'll just off myself. dead people don't have to work.
(don't worry, i'm not really going to kill myself, i swear to god! i hate people who threaten suicide unless it's for absolute real. hate them. because don't they know about the boy who cried wolf? i always take it very seriously when people say they're going to kill themselves, unless they do what i'm doing right now, which is saying i promise that i'm not.)
