The meme's message is not incompatible with your suggestion.

Well, the message as I interpreted it is that you either have to:

a) keep working at the job you hate, or b) experience homelessness

What am I missing? Granted, I slept very badly so its entirely possible that I may have morning dumb dumb brain.

No no, you have a great point, it's just that there are various circumstances that don't allow many people to do what you described in an easy way.

Yes, yes you have to do exactly as the meme says, there is no room for a little humor in misery.

Well sarcasm is the lowest form of humor, so forgive me if I dont consider you an expert on what's funny
