**Not only that, but how broadly the words at the end could be applied to anyone who is going through tough times -- it makes me wonder, every time I hear it, how many people who were ''contemplating suicide'' got cheered by the wording there:
-->"We have survived all the way from birth to this very moment... You, too, have survived, survived everything up to this moment. Grip tight! Hum! Laugh! Cry! Forget nothing, and think many things of it. Good night. Good night. Good night."

Cecil is understandably annoyed that he hasn't so much as tried to find a way out yet. The episode is about to end with the listeners thinking they're set for a big argument, until...
-->'''Carlos:''' But I do know two things.

** Plus, on a meta level: There were MANY tweets and mails to Joseph Fink about how cool the show is, but the "gay stuff" would annoy the author of said tweet. It is heartwarming, not only that the creators always shrug and continue to be open and inclusive and awesome - but that there are way more people loving them for it than hating them, and that these people are cheering the show on so expressively.
