      But what if you're able to find more than one person in the entire universe who cares about you? What if your self esteem gets high enough that you no longer believe that only one person will ever like you that much? Disappointing one of the many people who might care about you might not be so bad then, if doing so makes one of the other ones happy. Not that I would know what having that kind of self esteem feels like; I sometimes try to imagine though.

      Not really. Just because you spend a lot of time thinking about the stars doesn't give you a free pass to disregard human problems. The size of the universe doesn't make human interaction any less meaningful to a human, and doesn't excuse you from having to treat others with respect and consideration. As long as we're all organic animals, that will always be a part of who we are.

      Well... just to further encourage you, it does get better. I'm living evidence. Where as I'm 17, and love is a thing that many people say that young people can't endure, I am going through finding closure for a long distance relationship that had lasted 3 years. Where as I broke up w/ her about 4 and a half months ago, looking back I realize how unhappy I really was.
      After a year of us together, she had cheated on me with another guy. Lost her virginity to him as well. I tried to remain her friend due to the fact that she had told me those things herself. It was good for a while, but then eventually she had told not only me, but family members to kill ourselves for no reason at all. Her only excuse the next day was "I was on the rag" at the end of it all I had brought forth some concerns about our relationship. The only thing that came out of it was her blaming me for everything and blocking me on all social media. I'm with someone else now and I couldn't be happier. You just have to keep fighting.

      Maybe it doesn't need better animation. I think it's a good style. It fits very well. Sometimes it's okay for something to be a little different or a little slow, and that's okay. You know, people get so used to quality animation that it's kinda refreshing when something like this comes along. Just wholesome goodness.

      So would I. Adult swim should dedicate at least a hour or two every Sunday (or every night if it's popular, which it will be), where Joe pera just talks to you in a relaxing, comforting voice. I love this video.

    Joe reminds me that it is OK to be average, that it is OK to just, well, to just be quiet...er.
    Joe, I love you, man. I seriously love you. Most of all, being selfish as I am, I am jealous of how you come off as so still, so relaxed. We all need to relax. I am a disaster, and absolute mess. I wish I were Joe, even for a few minutes. I'm so tired.
    Goodnight, Joe.

    Dear adult swim,
    From a loyal fan for 10 years now, i would for the first time like to make a formal request. My request would to have this series run as is, late night on adult swim whenever the time wizards see fit. All i wish to see is this gem in the rough flourish and create a new median for sleepy-time viewers, which has been a sorely lacking demographic from the late-night television program schedule. We have seen high action packed, high fidelity, rich story line animations; but something of this nature has not been seen for quiet some time. I would at the up most request a continuation of this series please and thank you, from your coziest fan in a coat.
    Sincerely,
    Cozy Coat
    Thank you Adult Swim for all the memories and all the laughs and all good times i have had with you, forever more.

    I lay down and stare at my ceiling when listening to this, the music and his voice make me wanna break down into tears. He's so comforting and it makes me look at life in a different perspective, a beautiful perspective. Especially when he said "if you could find one person in the universe who loves you, why would you wanna disappoint them?" With the chimes in the background, makes me wanna cry and cry. I love youre Joe Pera, you're a wonderful man.
