There was a readable article on the subject of losers in the Guardian yesterday, cba finding the link, but suffice to say most of us lose...at life...everything...
From "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy"
"Don't pretend you want to talk to me, I know you hate me."
"No I don't."
"Yes, you do, everybody does. It's part of the shape of the Universe.
I only have to talk to somebody, and they begin to hate me. Even robots
hate me. If you just ignore me, I expect I shall probably go away."
He jacked himself up to his feet and stood resolutely facing the opposite
direction.
"That ship hated me, " he said dejectedly, indicating the police craft.
"That ship?" said Ford in sudden excitement. "What happened to it?
Do you know?"
"It hated me because I talked to it."
"You TALKED to it?" exclaimed Ford. "What do you mean you talked to it?"
"Simple. I got very bored and depressed, so I went and plugged myself
into it's external computer feed. I talked to the computer at great length,
and explained my view of the universe to it, " said Marvin.
"And what happened? " pressed Ford.
"It committed suicide, " said Marvin, and stalked off back to the
Heart of Gold.
