Midnight Pals: The Weed that Makes you Depressed

Algernon Blackwood: Submitted for the approval of the Midnight Society, I call this the tale of the haunted weed Blackwood: so there's this weed that's SO dank Blackwood: that if you smoke it Blackwood: a ghost will get you Poe: yeah that is Poe: that is pretty dank

Blackwood: see, this weed is SO DANK that a humor writer smoked it Blackwood: and he just got super depressed Blackwood: he couldn't even reassure his readers that he was not making it up

Blackwood: so this humorist smoked the weed that makes you depressed, says life seems harsh and cruel, says he feels all alone in a threatening world where what lies ahead is vague and uncertain. Blackwood: John Silence says, 'Treatment is simple.' Blackwood: 'The Great humorist Pagliacci is in town tonight.'

Fitz James O'Brien: hey guys O'Brien: check it out, i got the weed that makes you depressed Poe: why do you even have that? Poe: how is there possibly a market for that?

Franz Kafka: can i try it? O'Brien: no no no franz this is too strong for you O'Brien: only someone naturally ebullient and hilarious can handle this dank nug Kim Newman: [bowtie spinning] heyza heyza i just flew in from albaquerie and boy are my arms tired Newman: what's this about dank nugs

King: look! it's kim newman! Poe: oh good i could use a laugh Kim Newman: siiighhh King: you feeling ok, kim? Newman: i dunno, i just haven't been my usual jokey self Newman: i've just been so depressed Newman: it must be because i smoked the weed that makes you depressed

Newman: so i smoked the weed that makes you depressed Poe: you smoked the what? Newman: the weed that makes you depressed Poe: the weed that makes you depressed? Newman: yeah the weed that makes you depressed Poe: excuse me? Newman: i gotta tell you about this weed Newman: it made me depressed

Blackwood: so anyway John Silence has to fight the weed that makes you depressed Blackwood: but it makes him see visions of phantom cats Lovecraft: i don't understand how this would make anyone depressed Lovecraft: seems pretty great to me, honestly!
