That is so rude.

A: How did she die?

B: She killed herself. She didn't leave a note. That is so rude, isn't it?

I don't get why B said "That is so rude". Was B talking about her not leaveing a note or the condition that she killed herself without a note?

Can you please rephrase "rude" in another word to get it right?

Thanks,

Ryo

Don't joke about suicide though. It's extremely callous.
