    Why is this depressing?

    It's so absolutely true. Take 3 mins and trust me. Play the song, close your eyes and listen.

    It's depressing in a way that it shouldnt be, and personally - makes me wanna call some of my old army/college friends.

    Edit - god damn it, typo. "Why is this depressing" is the intended title of the thread.

    This does is depressing because my internal grammar nazi weeps at your thread title. The song's not depressing. It's just a self-help text spoken over a bloody tune. It's quite uplifting to me because most of the good advice dispensed in the five and a half minutes is stuff I've done anyway.

    Appreciate it Cephius, I'm on my way to a HS graduation party I'm DJ'ing in philly and pre-gamed a few beers. I didnt mean to type it that way and not only accept the inevitable onsalught of lulz at the mistake but that fact that it'll take away from the intension of the post itself.

    But, I do appreciate you trying to help.

    This isn't depressing to me, but it does make me feel old, since i remember it when it was new and haven't heard it in so so long.

    I didn't find this depressing at all. Do you hate your life JP?

    Also, why is there an ad for the movie "The Hangover" in...some Scandinavian language up there?

    I was thinking about this song not too long ago, kind of glad this popped up.

    edit: wow I was only 10 when this song was out, that was nearly 10 years ago...jesus. I suddenly feel old.

    It's depressing I guess because it makes me think about high school, college, army, etc. - any of em and I miss my friends from those days.

    not depressing at all. I guess if you do find it depressing, you should look at your life in a mirror and see how you can make it better.


    my 2 cents.

    Yea, this didn't hit a sad nerve at all. Actually, this kind of made me a little bit happier. It's great advice that all of us should try to follow.
