You can see the foreboding by the shoe appearing in the lower left-hand corner of the first panel of the comic strip. The impending appearance of a character that is compelled to destroy the impact of anything good.
A report of a pilot that safely lands a disabled plane saving hundreds of lives gets countered with a story about the pilot's weaknesses.
Relating how your vacation weather was seven days of beautiful warm sunshine is countered with the dangers of sun on the skin.
You know the guy, the Joe Btfsplks of the world that can't let a good report go uncountered by his chronic unhappiness. He will always be around coming up from time to time to try to bring you down into the hole that he's in.
