I woke up in a daze at 4.45am and almost had a heart attack for not seeing an email address. Fortunately I stayed on and email address updated at the last minute - devious!! And then you can't copy and paste! Omg! After this, I can't get back to sleep even though I tried to.

Enthusiast Who Thought He'd Lost All Hope Loses Last Additional Bit Of Hope He Didn't Even Know He Still Had

Despite assuming that he had lost every last possible ounce of hope long ago, mechanical keyboard enthusiast Purp, 69, was surprised to discover Thursday that he did, in fact, possess one tiny additional shred of hope, which he subsequently lost.

"Contrary to the belief of coposters, neighbors, distant relatives, and Mr. Purp himself, this so-called 'hopeless' man actually still had one infinitesimally small shred of hope, which he became aware of in the process of losing said last shred of hope," said noted therapist Dr. Bro Capbaum. "Oddly, it was only during that fleeting moment in which he was losing this additional micro-hope that he was able to realize that the hope had ever existed at all."

Purp's discovery and subsequent loss of the hope is believed to have begun at approximately 2 p.m. Thursday, when he noticed a Bro Caps Sale Reddit post – which he checks for every two to three hours, usually finding nothing new. After losing so many raffles, he decided to place one more entry as he had in mind the unlikely but theoretically possible scenario of a win.

At some point during his workday, which consists primarily of sitting at a desk, staring into space, and occasionally pressing F5 on /r/MechanicalKeyboards, he realized that the unpopularity of said post could in fact turn the odds to his favor since, as what he believed to be a small amount of people, could potentially be missing the sale altogether. An old Reddit friend, who had moved to Geekhack many years before, told Purp that "maybe you'll win a raffle sale sometime". Purp then proceeded to place an entry for the sale.

"Apparently, though he had long since forgotten about the possibility of a win, there remained in Purp some residual, subconscious awareness that there was a tiny chance, however microscopically small, that he would one day win a raffle," Capbaum said. "He must have realized this at some point during the day and experienced a slight sensation of excitement, looking forward to going to his inbox to find an invoice."

Upon returning to his squalid one-room flat that evening, however, Purp discovered that his inbox, and the spam folder as well, were actually empty.

Prior to Thursday, Purp had not experienced any loss of hope in more than three years. According to Brobaum, a majority of Purp's hope-losses hit him in successive ramrod batterings between the ages of 18 and 68. By the time he had reached his late 60s, Purp had lost enough of his remaining hope to be considered officially hopeless. Nevertheless, he forged ahead with his few tiny remaining shreds of hope–too insignificant to be considered hope to the average person–until a final devastating blow depleted his hope reserves in April, 2016 when he lost Booper's CMYK sale for a Purple Colonel.

"There have just been so many times he's lost hope over the years," Capbaum said. "There was the night of his senior prom, when his date and then-best friend drunkenly made out in front of dozens of classmates before openly mocking him in a group sing-along along with the rest of the senior class. This is just one of a lifetime of incidents. There was the time his recently discovered biological mother, for whom he had searched for years, told him, 'I have no son' at her own wedding, the first time they met. And one can safely assume that his rejection as 'unsuitable for conversion' by a pair of Mormon missionaries he attempted to befriend after they randomly knocked on his door must have cost him a significant amount of what precious little hope he had left. But this latest loss is one not even he could have anticipated, as he was unaware that he had any hope remaining at all".

Incredibly, even greater pain may still lie ahead for Purp. Experts fear that the hopefull ticket incident may lead to the discovery of other Lilliputian bits of undiscovered hope, all of which are certain to be ultimately lost.

"If this poor, miserable wretch can finally lose every last ounce of hope, then at least his life will be relatively bearable, inasmuch as he will have nothing more to lose," Capbaum said. "However, as long as there is even the slightest chance, no matter how astronomical the odds, that he has more undiscovered hope left inside him somewhere, he will always have the inevitable loss of that hope hanging over him like a dank cloud of black soul-sludge, waiting to devour him in a pit of churning agony."

"Of course, maybe this was the last time, after all, and he is completely hopeless for good," said Capbaum. "But even that scenario constitutes a form of hope, making his overall prospects of eventually winning a Brocap and finding a stable, hope-free existence a distant hope at best."

And I just keep losing microscopical shreds of hope I didn't even know I still had.

If you're feeling sad because you're name wasn't drawn as a winner, consider that at least you were in the draw.

Some of us missed it completely ...

I wanted those reapers or the white gamer set so badly... I actually got a stump but only wanted it to have a tmx.

If anyone ever gets rid of a white gamer set, I'm your man.

I'd probably have a heart attack if I got an invoice!

Or some sort of attack, anyway.
