Hugepimple, head of the psychology department at the Shalampax Medical Clinic, recently announced that the clinic has seen an enormous increase in the number of cases of depression that have been diagnosed in the past few weeks. Neither Hugepimple nor anyone else at the clinic can find a reason why a very large cross-section of the Shalampax population should have become so intensely despondent almost simultaneously.
“We have every reason to be miserable on this dismal, storm-plagued, Paahlm-forsaken puny island,” said Hugepimle, “but it has always been thus. So why should people become depressed now? That’s what has us stumped.”
