My grief counselor died....

She was so good, I don’t even care.

Did You Know?

The joke's dark humor hinges on the irony that a grief counselor was SO effective at teaching coping skills that the speaker applies those lessons even to the counselor's own death — meaning they genuinely don't feel grief about it. Grief counseling as a profession emerged in the 1960s, and studies show that effective therapy can actually rewire how our brains process loss and emotional pain.
