“There is a long marriage between comedy and human suffering, and mental illness, in particular, is easily played for laughs….Sometimes it is hard to shake the feeling that, all jokes aside, there really is an epidemic of human suffering in the world, the full brunt of which is being borne, for now, by only a luckless few.”
—Teju Cole, Open City

That is all.
YEAH, DICKS! SO SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT IT.
