"You know how book stores make you feel stupid? Health stores make me feel unhealthy." - Curb Your Enthusiasm
Have you ever tried to write something funny when you have a case of the blues? It doesn't work, not for me anyway. Drawing pictures on my skin makes me feel better, as do long baths, sad songs, painting my nails, naps... and Larry David.
Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm almost always alleviate my bad mood, I think partly because one of the characters is guaranteed to be in a more unpleasant predicament than I am. You dropped a Junior Mint into someone's chest cavity during surgery? You keep coughing because one of your wife's pubic hairs is stuck in your throat? Your ex-girlfriend became a lesbian right after the two of you broke up? You suddenly believe your head is too large for your body? You got trapped in a car wash with a really bad case of diarrhea? No, no, no, no, and no; none of these things will (hopefully) ever happen to me, which is why I love watching it play out on the small screen.
