If every vampire who said he was at the crucifixion was actually there, it would have been like Woodstock.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I never in my wildest dreams would've imagined that one of the hap-hap-happiest places in the US would be Jersey City.

I'll bet it was based on sunny days or some shit.

Actually, it's based on anti-depressant sales (or lack thereof).

Dude. Their methods are suspect. El Paso.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Actually, it's based on anti-depressant sales (or lack thereof).

Huh. Well it could be that in Texas people are more macho and therefor less likely to take antidepressants.

I would tend to think in blue states folks would be more likely to take antidepressants.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Actually, it's based on anti-depressant sales (or lack thereof).

I'm wondering if El Paso isn't so much undepressed as unmedicated.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Does that include off-label usage?

Actually, it's based on anti-depressant sales (or lack thereof).

Considering the economics of El Paso, and that I heard this am that Texas has the highest number of employed people without health insurance, I'm betting the low sales have more to do with poverty (as well as cultural attitudes.) OH! And also? That close to the border, a lot of people go to Mexico to get cheap prescription meds.

Stupid headline writers.

I was thinking the same thing. Low antidepressant sales do not equal low rates of depression.

In fact, I'd wager that areas with high antidepressant sales are "happier," whatever the fuck that means, because people's depression is actually well-managed.
