Someone tried to cheer me up by saying to think of others worse off.

I decided to make it into a game, similar to the telephone game but we pay it forward. I gathered a group of every sorry depressing person in the city and by vote, we all lined up who we all agreed, was best to worst and the rule was to say to the next guy: “Cheer up, the guy after you is worse” and tell them to pass it on. …Sadly the game could never started though….Because the first guy was dead.
