...I'm not really sure what to say. News just broke online that someone I knew on IRC took his own life in the last week. I knew him as "Pudi", which seems to have been his chosen alias most places: friends have met him in real life, and it seems he was in real life as he was online, pleasant, introverted... I hadn't spoken to him in the better part of a year, and never knew him terribly well, but it hits harder than you might think, even so. He was a nice bloke, and he didn't talk about his problems, and then he wasn't there any more.
Rest in peace, Pudi.
