spicy pancakewouldn’t an electric chair be a closer match in meaning? nooses usually symbolize suicide moreso than execution these days
MnemonicBumpNot sure where you’re from, but in the U.S., at least, nooses have a specific historical and cultural meaning. It’s illegal to tie a noose with 13 or more coild in the u.s. for this reason, and it has nothing to do with suicide.
That depends where you are. In America it is more often associated with lynchings than suicide.

In this case, though… It was merely the pubic execution of a leprechaun.
