having grown up in the south during the '70's, a song from those times comes back, that might have meaning here..... (from tv's 'hee haw'..... )

"GLOOOOOOOOM, desPAAAAAYR, and agony on me..(MOOOOAN!)
Deep, dark depression, excessive misery! (MOOOAN!)
If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all. ((MOOOAN!)
Gloom, despair, and agony on me!"

boy, depression was way funnier back then....
