I don't know if any of you have seen 'Harold and Maude', but it's an old favourite of mine from student days. After reading Awix's review of 'A Man Called Otto' I was moved to rewatch 'Harold and Maude'.

If you don't want to watch it, at least you'll know what it's about and why the fuss.

I'd not heard of 'Harold and Maude', but after this appeared in Peer Review I saw an advert for it on social media!

Thank you for writing about it - helps me to know it's not a film I could watch, but I appreciate knowing more about it. The image is very powerful...

The only bit that didn't read fully clearly to me was about "the computer questionnaire" - would "a computer questionnaire" work?

The trigger warning is a good idea - should it be for suicide rather than self-harm, though? (I think "self-harm" is a technical term for a specific issue)

That algorithm is a menace, isn't it?

Thanks for reading, Sasha - changes made. I didn't know if you were allowed to say 'suicide' in a suicide trigger warning, now I'll know better.

Thanks about the image. I cobbled it together out of public domain sources because there's no way we could get an image from the film.

I'm definitely experiencing the frequency illusion a lot lately, even outside - I saw an elevator repair van yesterday, and I saw another one from the same company in a different town today!

Thanks for those tweaks

*cue Twilight Zone music*

Was seeing the second elevator repair van an uplifting experience?
