People often want to die quickly and end their lives in a fashion that doesn't alert their friends. What's a man to do? Simple; make yourself taller. This is a euphemism for Hanging one's self. This is based off of a rather humorous scene in the anime "Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei," Where the titular character, literally named "Despair" in Japanese, tries to hang himself before a cheerful and exceedingly optimistic girl by the name of "Kafuka Fuura," who states that her mother, father and many people in her family have tried to "Make themselves taller." Yes, they were all suicidal.
