It is amazing how many unhappy and depressed people are in the world. Yet they keep on trudging along, getting more unhappy and depressed all the while. If there were some goal or reward at the end of the road it might be understandable, but more often than not there isn’t. So, what’s the point anyway? Are we all running on basic survival instinct or do we lie to ourselves to give us reason to do what we do?
Does it look as if Dad is looking right at us in the first three panels? Is he actually freaked out about there being an audience, and is he too scared to tell Binkley about it?

Time to cue the cast of “Avenue Q”, including the Gary Coleman character singing, “It Sucks to be Me.”
