After some people watch Avatar, they say they're depressed because the world of Avatar is not real.

A CNN report said that, right here.

Depression is a terrible thing. But if I was depressed, a sure way to bring me out of it would be hearing that Avatar not being real makes fans depressed.

One guy said, "I even contemplate suicide thinking that if I do it I will be rebirthed in a world similar to Pandora and everything is the same as in Avatar."

Dude. Whacking yourself is not how you get to Pandora! Did you even see the movie?

Another poor dingbat said, "That's all I have been doing as of late, searching the Internet for more info about Avatar. I can't force myself to think that it's just a movie, and to get over it, that living like the Na'vi will never happen."

It's one movie, and it just came out, and it isn't an adaptation of anything. How much information is there?

Living like the Na'Vi can totally happen. You can paint yourself blue, live in the woods, and be really vigilant about recycling right now.

The story said Avatar fans talking about how miserable they are has made them less depressed. That's strange. Message boards make me angry, not depressed.

Here are some ways to overcome Avatar depression:

1. Quit listening to wimpy bands such as Dashboard Confessional.

2. Watch any other movie. As long as it's not Marley and Me. That will kill you.

3. Put on your big boy pants.

I understand what they're talking about. The fantasy world of that movie was so fully realized that their lives seem pale by comparison.

I felt the same way about Revenge of the Nerds. But I did not give up hope. That is the key. Someday, I will put Icy-Hot in a football team's jockstraps.
