True Story

Last summer, I was at a bar by myself, just listening to people talk. The bartender was talking to one of her regulars. This is what they said:

Bartender: "I think I'm depressed."

Regular: "What makes you think that?"

Bartender: "I feel really tired all the time, and unhappy."

Regular: [takes a sip of her gin and tonic] "You should just drink more." [laughs]

Bartender: "If I drink any more, I'll die."
