Wah, Wah, I Have Seasonal Affective Disorder
Who doesn't love the Onion? I think it does a lot more for the debate raging around the US Health Care system than C-SPAN does. A whole lot more. What I like best about this piece is how it also subtly attacks our modern perception of mental disease. Does S.A.D warrant the attention and sympathy it gets? Do we take short-term depression too seriously? Why is it that only the Onion prompts me to ask these questions?
