Misery Index - Amusing?

Does anyone else find this prhrase hilarious/enchanting? Don't you wish there was a real Misery Index (I mean, I know there is but) where you could look at it to see if you were miserable or not? Oh! only 5.2! I guess I'm not as miserable as I thought I was! or - uh-oh! I thought I was doing all right! Thank goodness the misery index is here to set me straight! -or -To see if the population is or not (like, are we more miserable now than we were in 1812 or whatever)
