[ WP ] An innocent passerby notices another man about to hang himself on a playground . To avert the man 's death , the passerby decides to have a casual conversation with him . To goal is to make the ensuing conversation so funny that the reader forgets about the suicide .

A cool spring breeze flows through the playground at dawn. Jin stands atop an aluminum Jungle Gym with a rope tied around his neck. He looks at the sky, waiting for the sun to rise. It will be his final view. A little ray of sunshine in an otherwise bleak and miserable life. Jin closes his eyes, waiting for the warmth that will signal his end. 
 
 
 `` Hey, the fuck are you doing!'' A clear high pitched voice shatters Jin's reverie. 
 
 
 Jin opens his eyes to see a curvy woman staring up at him. Her blond hair waved in the wind as she took a drag of her cigarette. *Fuck* Jin thought to himself. *She's ruining it. * 
 
 
 Jin sighs, `` What does it look like I'm doing?'' 
 
 
 The woman exhaled a cloud of smoke. `` Looks like you're about to fuck up a lot of kids. Why ca n't you do that in the privacy of your own home like everyone else?'' 
 
 
 Jin coughed, choking on the second hand smoke. `` Hey fuck you lady! You're smoking in a playground who are you to judge? Go away. You're ruining this for me.'' 
 
 
 `` Pssh, you're ruining this for yourself. That's shoddy rope work, there's no way you're going to get off like that. Gon na end up on the ground disappointed that you did n't get to finish.'' 
 
 
 `` I... what? What are you, a rope technician or something?'' 
 
 
 The blond tossed her cigarette on the ground and ground it underneath her heel. `` I guess you could say that. I'm a domme. Name's Tammy.'' 
 
 
 `` Oh, uh, hi Tammy. My name is Jin.'' 
 
 
 Tammy took her shoes off and climbed up to the top of the Jungle Gym. She sat down on the bars, steadying herself with her hands. `` Hi Jin. Anyway, like I was saying before your knots are all wonky. And you're not high up enough anyway, your suspension would be all off, your rope would n't hold. I see it all the time, common rookie mistake.'' 
 
 
 Jin carefully sat down on the bars and looked at Tammy. `` No kidding? I'm not really kinky so I do n't know much about this kind of stuff. I just went with a shoe lace tie. Got any advice for a newbie?'' 
 
 
 `` Nah, I think it would just be easier to show you. Why do n't you come back to my place? First session will be on me. What do you say?'' 
 
 
 `` I do n't know, I do n't think that's my kind of thing.'' 
 
 
 `` What do you have to lose? It'll be fun hun, I promise. If nothing else, you'll learn how to do it on your own.'' Tammy winked at Jin and squeezed his hand. 
 
 
 Jin's face turned bright red and he sputtered, `` Ah... uhmm... ok. Why not.'' 
 
 
 `` Good. Let's go.'' Tammy hopped off of the metal bars. 
 
 
 Flushed, Jin slid off the bars as well. He gasped for air as the noose around his neck tightened for a moment. He saw his entire life flash before his eyes. *I do n't wan na die, I do n't wan na die! * The noose unraveled like a homemade sweater being pulled at the seams and Jin fell to the ground. 
 
 
 `` I'm alive! HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT FUCK!'' 
 
 
 Tammy shook her head. `` Like I said, shoddy ropework.''
