Hello darkness, my old friend 1.25” Button Pinback Despair Defeat Meme Coffee

Description: HELLO DARKNESS MY OLD FRIEND Humorous Despair Slogan A 1.25” button with the slogan Hello darkness, my old friend. ‘Hello darkness, my old friend’ is the first line of Simon and Garfunkel's hit 1964 song, "The Sounds of Silence."Paul Simon later described the song's melancholy lyrics as stemming from "youthful alienation." The phrase is used to humorously express despair or existential angst. It is often used as an image caption, appended to pictures of things associated with darkness: black coffee, Guinness beer, black cats, Batman, Venom, or Darth Vader. In its fourth season, the sitcom Arrested Development riffed on The Graduate’s use of “The Sounds of Silence.” On the show, the first line or two of the song, including its signature hello darkness, my old friend, frequently played as the character Gob Bluth (and occasionally characters) faced harrowing realizations or moments of despair. Although the lyric is quite melancholy, ‘Hello darkness, my old friend’ is often used to make melodramatic light of an upsetting but not tragic situation, like a sports loss or breakup. Wear this button while drinking your own darkness, while briefly wallowing in despair, or while meeting up with your friends to cheer on your team that seems doomed to lose.

Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing, Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before.
