Despair 2

[im_in_despair]

Ah, yes. The Ball. An evening of romance.

Or should I say...

An evening of DESPAIR!

Love and romance are, by their very natures, the very heart of despair and hopelessness! For every one person who gets a date out of love, ten people get a date out of pity! And, for every one person who gets a date out of pity, ten people get no date at all! One

That is not the way of true men! Don't waste time sitting here in despair, you must rise to the occasion, find yourself a date and pierce the heavens! Show me your burning, manly spirit!

[im_in_despair]

Absolutely not! I've made peace with the situation, and other people will be a lot less stressed if they do, too!

After all, trying only leads to more despair!

[orewadareda]

There is no such thing as trying! You only do, or do harder!

[im_in_despair]

On the contrary, there is VERY much such a thing as trying! It leads to all sorts of trouble! Just the other day, I tried to stop someone from selling their family, and ended up unwittingly becoming their adoptive grandfather!

You're right.

Grandpa is a little too old to dance. You might break your hip.

I have a date. She's a pretty girl.

[im_in_despair]

I'm not that old!

[immarubberman]

It would be weird if you had a date.

All the girls here are younger than you.

[im_in_despair]

Exactly. I don't have any reason to go!

[baby_bangbang]

Better in despair than hungry.

[im_in_despair]

That's nothing to worry about. I'm planning to hibernate that week!

[mystichamburger]

But then you get no food! That's a week of DESPAIR!

[im_in_despair]

A man of such strength and determination as myself can easily go a week without food!

[mystichamburger]

Won't you feel the DESPAIR?

[im_in_despair]

Of course I will! There's despair in my future no matter what I do!

There comes a time in every life where one must choose the less of two despairs!

Go to the ball, because some people may like other people who are in...despair... to hang out with.

[im_in_despair]

You obviously don't understand how despair works! If you hang around other people who are in despair, the problem only amplifies itself!

[the_dead_ringer]

Some people enjoy hanging around people who might have a problem or something.

[im_in_despair]

Well, I don't.
