The 14 Habits of Highly Miserable People

I just ran across an amusing article titled, "The 14 Habits of
Highly Miserable People."
HTML https://www.alternet.org/personal-health/14-habits-highly-miserable-people
Before giving the 14 habits, it says:
. . . it’s important to keep in mind the benefits you’re
accruing in your misery.
• When you’re miserable, people feel sorry for you. Not only
that, they often feel obscurely guilty, as if your misery might
somehow be their fault. This is good! There’s power in making
other people feel guilty. The people who love you and those who
depend on you will walk on eggshells to make sure that they
don’t say or do anything that will increase your misery.
• When you’re miserable, since you have no hopes and expect
nothing good to happen, you can’t be disappointed or
disillusioned.
• Being miserable can give the impression that you’re a wise and
worldly person, especially if you’re miserable not just about
your life, but about society in general. You can project an aura
of someone burdened by a form of profound, tragic, existential
knowledge that happy, shallow people can’t possibly appreciate.
Ha, ha! Then comes the list of 14 habits that will make you
miserable and exercises to help you acquire these habits. I'm
not sure which one is my favorite. :D
