Have you ever been on Pinterest, and you've looked at so many pictures of cute animals that you start to feel totally blasé? Like, yes, I see the kitten is small and furry and by all accounts adorable. But I feel nothing.
You start to wonder if you are dead inside. Again cute kitten. Again nothing.
Then you tune into the news: wars, presidential posturing, heinous crimes and general mayhem and meanness.
And the next time you see a picture of a kitten, you realize how much you needed to see it.
Squee!
