there is normally more to the picture than meets the eye

if you had an addiction to pleasurable sensation, to the extent that you would risk your own life, it would make more sense to take the path of kurt cobain, especially if money was not a problem

not well

perhaps it was a combination of suicidal tendancies combined with a drastic (unsatisfactory in the long term) action to alleviate it.

if he investigated the character of his first acting role, he might not have wound up in that unfortunate position.

it is interesting to note the name of cobains' band.
kurt also had an imaginary friend as a kid, that is related to his bands' name.

both these stories have an apparant element of irony

this is the danger with the persona, especially in such vocations; it gets all the attention, while the reality is negelected.
