Default Melancholy Actuarial

What happened in here? Everyone is sad, drunk, hopeless.... Looks like melancholy hit AO pretty hard.

There is a thread about how some guy has lost all hope. One about some sappy song that should no be listened to when drunk. One about how some guy cant live without some woman who doesnt want him.

I'd say this place has got pretty sad the last 2 weeks. So much for being the best profession eh.

The weather is nice, there is epic hoops being played, but there's a lot of studying to be done. March/April are crappy times to be an actuary.

It's my first time writing a post since I've been browsing the forum until now.
