    Paradigmsearch is depressed. Having a 2-year traffic low can do that to a person.

    I humbly request to be un-depressed by my fellow Hubbers.

    This goes so far beyond what any hubber can help you with.
    Now is the time to take out your pet lizard (you did get one, right?) and share a drink or jar of nice mealworms. Only your pet lizard will understand what you are going through.

        I went to the beach earlier this evening and discussed your situation with my Zen therapist. She feels there are two ways to overcome hubpression. Write a great hub that will garner millions of views, like "New Android Apps for the 2013 Hamster Iphone", or buy a dog and learn kinhin.
        Of course Sarra´s suggestion is good if you are not allergic.

    Top 10 Reasons for paradigmsearch to Un-Depress:

    10)  It's not you; there's probably something wrong with Google
    9)  You're among friends - we love you!
    8) It can only go up (eventually, anyway . . .)
    7) All the writers with more traffic than you probably don't deserve it.
    6) Art and Intellect don't pay well anyway.
    5) It's always darkest before the sun (or some such cliche).
    4) It only hurts when you laugh (another such cliche).
    3) There are probably a ton of Hubbers way down on the list after you.
    2) It's only money.

    And the top reason?

    1)  If you got traffic stats and money from your forum posts, you'd be at the top of the list!

      I have made the decision to hunt you down. However, you will have to give me more information in your profile. Or, drop me a note.

        Hunt me down? Does this involve weapons of assault? Well, I don't give my weight in my profile, but just aboit everything else is there, except my astrological data or something!  I hope you are officially un-depressed now?  I worked hard on that list - just for you.

    Maybe, you should not invest so much into a loser's bet.

        Sorry, I don't get it. There is nothing fun there.

        My point is this . . . why sweat the small stuff? Don't waste energy chasing rabbits. Save it for the bear.
