Five rules for eternal misery

Found this on kingofsting03. How apropos~ Perhaps today I am engaged in #5. God has so many ways of driving the message home.

Five rules for eternal misery:

1. Always try to exhort others to look upon you favorably.
2. Make lots of assumptions about situations and be sure to treat these assumptions as though they are reality.
3. Then treat each new situation as though it's a crisis.
4. Live in the past and future only (become obsessed with how much better things might have been or how much worse things might become).
5. Occasionally stomp on yourself for being so obtuse (stupid) as to follow the first four rules
