Sometimes I get really angsty and mopey and think “I wish I’d never been born,” then I remember that episode of The Secret World of Alex Mack where Alex wishes she’d never been born. She wakes up the next day and finds that she has never existed and her family and friends have very shitty lives because she wasn’t there for them and stuff.

The point is supposed to be that whining and moping are self-indulgent and useless, so you should shut up and carry on being awesome. A totally valid message, right?

A side note: I can’t believe I’m old enough to remember random episodes of a Nickelodeon show for tween girls that ran from 1994-1998.
