Jon clearly takes the opposite route. It is the intensity of his search which invariably causes the paranoia and depression which kill his chances for finding bliss. A mere flirtation with a woman at the pub might send Jon's mind spiraling into a fantasy of dating, relationships, occasional disagreements leading to fights, breakups, and a lingering feeling of loss and despair as he hopelessly tries to find a cheap therapist. In the meantime, the woman senses that something isn't quite right, and saunters over to the nearest Coors-guzzling frat boy. Clearly, over-examination isn't leading Jon towards a path of bliss and enlightenment.
Logic fails here.
The vapid, brainless, unwashed, ignorant masses disgust me on a purely emotional, gut-churning level, logic be damned. So, based strictly on this uninformed emotional reaction, I will judge against ignorance, and, I suppose, bliss. Long live self-examination, long live pain and disillusion. Keep your eyes peeled. And a final word of thanks to all the people who've been writing in with letters of support for helping to make this strip and this site such a labor of love.
