Maybe the real lesson is that a mangled hand actively gushing blood isn’t really a great analogy for depression.

If the comic suggested that he sought help in the past and it wasn’t working, it would be a much better analogy. Unfortunately, we only know what’s actually shown.
The victim isn’t at fault for being depressed, or having a mangled hand, or whatever analogy we want to use. However, if they go out with friends and expect them to take the problem more seriously than they, themselves, are taking it, then they have some measure of fault for imposing their problem on the friend. If they are seeking treatment that just isn’t working, or they are unable to get proper treatment for other reasons, that’s a different story and I’ll have a lot more sympathy.
It all boils down to not expecting someone to take your problem seriously for long if you are not taking it seriously yourself.
The others would probably take his problem a lot more seriously if he had at least tried to get it fixed. If you are going to walk around with a mangled blood gushing hand for a prolonged period of time, without seeking help, then you should probably stop whining about it, because I can’t do anything for you. I can’t force you to go to a doctor.
The metaphor would work a lot better if one of the people he’s talking to was a doctor that ignored the problem with his hand.
Dude should maybe consider seeing a doctor about his “hand”.
I’m familiar with WYSIWYG but I’ve never heard of WUSSYWAGON.
I can’t really see 2 egos of that size coexisting. I’m terrified of being wrong about that in this case though
If the door can’t be opened easily in a panicked life or death situation, it’s a design flaw and needs to be recalled and fixed.
If you let the companies get away with this, they’ll use it as an excuse to get away with more. The enforcement isn’t about this mistake specifically, it’s about keeping consistent practices and preventing precedents.
For the stuff that’s already sold, they don’t have to destroy it, or do anything really, unless the customer returns it. Hardly any are going to. If the article counts those in the headline number, it’s being a little dishonest.
Hah, I didn’t even notice all the cars at first. I thought they were referring to the shitty gravel driveway.
How do you hold the phone in position with both hands using the controller? I suppose you could use a phone stand at a table, but that really just seems counter to the purpose of gaming on a phone; the ability to do it anywhere.
I get stressed out by the fact that missing one seasonal item in the community center means you have to repeat an entire year again just to complete it and move on to new content. I’ve still never managed to get to any of the content on Ginger Island because of that.
Lay of the mushrooms dude. Those are some serious hallucinations.

She sounds awesome. Do you know if she’s seeing anyone, in like a serious way?
