Easier methods

I quite agree to your post except that I do not like yellow. A much easier method to relieve depression is take regular doses of prozac. A final method is to listen to Wee Willy for a period greater that three seconds and you are guaranteed either to crack up or to fall asleep.
Yellow works for me

Looking at the world in yellow simulates the sun and summertime which makes most people happy. However,regular deep-sea divers may prefer blue,I suppose!

Actually, I believe you are right about yellow. I read in a magazine that you should paint your study yellow, as it stimulates the brain. Blue is calming. Green stimulates hunger. Purple uplifts your mood...etc......

Um- yellow filters? Is this something I could get added to my towel?
Towel additions
Jacculus of Rome Posted Dec 2, 1999
I suppose so - but yellow cellophane might not be very good for drying yourself with. I suppose you could have two little squares of it stuck up in the corner of your towel to look through when the depression hits you,but you'd have to reinforce the stitching.

prozac can be not so happy!

i have to take exception with the advice of regularly popping prozac, since it is not a universally happy-inducing thing! in fact, nothing is... easier methods often lack the key ingredient -- something personal. what makes others happy doesn't always make you happy, why search for it in the impersonal realm "out there"? why not search for the truth of happiness from within, and become a complete hermit? .
happiness is irony
prozac can be not so happy!
She Who Gratifies Gravity Posted Mar 25, 2000
Yeah. Especially if someone "irony"ies my clothes for me!
phhbbbllllttt!!!

why can't you buy polyester like any good lazy person would? wouldn't need to bother with ironing so much. or something in spandex.
phhbbbllllttt!!!

Oh spandex! Cottage cheese thighs and spandex are quite a popular combination here in America.
joys of spandex
silver cloud of lunacy Posted Mar 26, 2000
i think the popularity of that combination seems to fit in well with that whole laziness issue
which is not really all that bad, i'm quite lazy and i have to say that spandex is a good friend when ice cream bingeing goes too far...
but i have the decency to wear something other than a matching tube top to balance the whole ensemble, which i'm sure if more people did, spandex wouldn't have it's currently rather miserable reputation...

Since my engagement, my fiancee' and I have grown really lazy and fat! Too many nights in front of the telly with popcorn and sweets! It might have to be spandex for the wedding, because I don't think I could fit into anything else! Are you American? You have a great name!

*blush* awww shucks, thanks...
not american, a little further north... that cold place above it... canadian! woo hoo!
my reliance on spandex came as a result of (a) fatty residence food, first three years of university,
(b) my stick of a boyfriend not caring if i gained 50 lbs...
damn all them chocolatey things...

Blame Canada! Blame Canada! Oops, sorry. But, that is a catchy song. It's a depressive cycle. Men depress you, eat more chocolate. Get fat, men find you repulsive, eat more chocolate. Old boyfriend from high school who lives in California calls you because he's recently divorced and is a millionaire and tells you that you are the only girl he ever really loved and would like to fly out to see you, comments on how much you've changed and asks you if you've grown fat. Eat more chocolate. Fiancee' enjoys you getting fat because when you were younger and thin you dumped him so many times for richer and in better shape men and now he doesn't worry about you at all. Eat more chocolate. Just dumped best friend, who was fat in high school, because before you met your fiancee she had gotten thin and was stealing all your boyfriends with a vengence that obviously stems from her always getting the ugly friend when we went out and met men. Eat more chocolate. Lose s-x drive because the feeling of you and your fiancee's fat bellys rubbing together grosses you out. Eat more chocolate. Um, I'm sorry. Did you say something?
