A .22 killed Robert Kennedy, to name one off the top of my head.
A .22 is actually a really nasty bullet despite its low power, since it isn't jacketed, if it hits something like, say, your ribcage, it can split, ricocheting everywhere inside you.
Bad buzz I believe is the term.
****edit, aside from ballistics...
Unless you're mentally unstable, or just plain dumb, there are way more effective ways of killing yourself than a .22lr.... I seem to remember a guy, possibly in Argentina who shot himself 7 times in the head and didn't die. Now *that* is nasty.
Always reminds me of Carlin talking about suicide
