Sports Ain't Fun No More
Click here to know how I feel. |
The Leafs haven’t hit rock bottom because they keep falling further and further. Just when you think it can’t get any worse, it does.
In one of the more depressing psychology experiments I’ve ever read dogs were given electric shocks. One group of dogs are able to end their shock by pressing a lever. The lever for the other group of dogs has no effect. The dogs were next tested in a box-like apparatus in which the dogs could escape the electric shocks by jumping over a low partition. The dogs that previously "learned" that nothing they did had any effect on the shocks simply lay down passively and whined. Even though they could have easily escaped the shocks, the dogs didn't try.
I think I’m just going to go lay down.

That gif is worth a thousand words... most of them of the four-letter variety.
Sad Burkie makes me sad.
