Sad Vs Happy

In the middle of my busy and inspiring day, full of rewarding and meaningful tasks, I type 'I'm so fucking depressed' into Google and get 111,000 hits. It's strangely comforting to know that more than a hundred thousand people used exactly the same words to describe their mental states. A disproportionate amount of them seem to be in, or just out of, rehab. They sound pretty fucking depressed. Someone called 'BREAKaBEAT' writes, 'I'm so fucking depressed, sobriety is not at all what it's cracked up to be'. Someone else called 'Rageboy' writes, 'I'm so fucking depressed I could fucking die. And I'm so sick of feeling this way, I could fucking puke...' I hear your pain Rageboy.

Just out of interest I tried 'I'm so fucking happy' and got 3,670,000 hits. So I guess the happy people win. Yay for them for being so fucking happy. My favourite is 'I'm so fucking happy I found a Taco Bell that serves the chili cheese burrito'.

  1. If you're in the mood for Google fun time. You might want to try the "I'm not racist but" game. Google that phrase or other classics such as "I'm not gay but" "I'm not sexist but" "i'm not a necrophiliac but" and enjoy the delightful results. (You might need to skip a few pages in as the first results are people talking about the game itself)

    Of course if you already are aware that the majority of interweb humanity are deluded bigoted corpseknobbing scum then you can save your time and play something else instead.
