It was near the end of the (long and painful) day, and we were wrapping up our journal writing. (And when I say we I mean he. Him. Frank.) He was trying to finish his picture, when he held up one of his markers and said in a very professor-like voice, "You know, you can kill yourself by putting a marker in your eye."
I looked at him.
"Frankly," I said, "At this point I think I'd like to test that theory. On myself."
2:30 at the end of a long long day? Don't think I wasn't serious.

Personally, I prefer to eat huge bowls of ice cream on bad days rather than stick magic markers in my eyes. :)
I'm with Lynn ... I would much rather overdose on sugar ( cake, candy, ice cream, chocolate) than stick anything in my eye.
Just cuz your killing yourself doesn't mean it has to hurt and not involve chocolate.
Remember that.
You can kill yourself with vodka too. And you feel the pain less that way.
Death by vodka and chocolate. I learn a lot of great ideas from your commentors also!
ice cream, vodka, chocolate - where? I'm coming over and yeah, I would have just smacked him - but that's just me
I don't know about sticking them in your eye, but sniffing them doesn't work either. Sadly. . . I used to love the smell of markers when I was a kid! LOL!
And just how does young Frank know this?
