Therapy and memes for all!

You're not "mentally unstable," you're just hilarious.

Why clearly convey your emotions when you can just send memes?

I was a bit of a whiner as a kid. I am outing myself. That said, my mother wasn't the most engaging parent. She sat at the same chair every day, chainsmoking and drinking Lipton tea while filling out her logic problem books that she bought at the stationery store.
