The Shrine

...from Winnie the Pooh. I'm talking to him, he's depressed about work, I'm trying to cheer him up, and he's like, "Okay, I'm going to go. I'm going to go be depressed."

I didn't think of it at the time, but later on I just got a similar impression of Eeyore going "Oh...well. Thanks...for noticing. What's...the use."

Ah, well. I can't go over to visit and cheer him up at present, and I don't really have to hang out in Eeyoreland with him.

You guys know anyone who's just perpetually Eeyorish?

I used to be.

me, sometimes heh

Well, there's a difference between being depressed and not caring (or not showing emotion).

I'd say an Eeyore is someone who makes the choice to be depressed because they enjoy some part of it.

Sera, you haven't really seemed that way to me (though, in truth, I barely know you).
