jackI felt depressed for the first time in ages[1]. And then I went back and read the list of things people liked or admired about me, and felt all warm and fuzzy and worthwhile :) I love you all. And I highly recommend using that meme yoruself :)
Normal sarcastic CartesianDaemon will be resumed shortly[2] :)
[1] I'm not sure why. I think being happy's like an unstable equilibrium[4]: constant little nudges keep you there, but if you fall off you have to work hard to get it back. And being unhappy's like a stable equilibrium. And if you were, say, suicidal, that would be a big black hole -- literally, in the happiness phase space -- a bit off to one side.
[2] I feel I'm owed one pointless depression and fuzzies fluff post. I try to not do any others[3] ever, really.
[3] Unless it's funny or instructive :)
[4] Which is like sitting on a tall pole. When my metaphors need metaphors to explain them, maybe I shouldn't use them[3].
[5] Look, footnote shenanigans! :) Don't panic, pedants, that was a joke, not a mistake.
