i don't get it
www.slate.com said:An urban legend about the suicide outbreak seems to have sprung up almost instantaneously. On the day after Black Thursday (The start of the Great Depression) the New York Times reported that many "wild and false" rumors were spreading throughout the country, including claims that 11 speculators had committed suicide and that a crowd had gathered around a Wall Street building because they thought a workman was a speculator preparing to jump. That same day, Will Rogers quipped that "you had to stand in line to get a window to jump out of"; and soon Eddie Cantor was joking that hotel clerks were asking guests if they wanted rooms "for sleeping or jumping."
haha yeahi love how they clearly spelt fuckers wrong
I would imagine they been told that it would be taken down if they left it written correctly as it would be deemed offensive
It alludes to the suicides that occured the last time the stock markets craashed this badly...
