The Misery Chick: Difference between revisions

Line 29:

Jane admits she had been avoiding Daria because she didn’t want to remember that her comment might had caused the football player’s death, a notion Daria quickly dismisses, and the two clear the air on all the sore points: that Jane doesn't think Daria's a misery chick, and that Daria knows Tommy Sherman shouldn't have died but that he also wasn't a nice person. Afterwards, Jane admits she told Trent to say to anyone that visits that she was out running. "What a surprise, he forgot." "He didn't," replies Daria.

Soon everything is back to normal in Lawndale High, though Daria gets to lay things down when asked a question about Tennyson's "better to have loved and lost" quote, as she says realizing that life is both good ''and'' painful is being realistic, not miserable, and recognizes pain is better than feeling nothing. Despite all this, Daria is still approached a few days later. This time by [[Sandi Griffin|Sandi]], whose cat [[Fluffy]] is ill. However, Daria is now ready, demanding a cash payment ~~in advance~~ of delivering blunt, though effective, advice.
