I kind of get it, though. Like, things are bad and might be affecting the people who you're interacting with even more, and when things are generally shit and someone is just obliviously dancing around going "Look at this neat thing that happened today!", it's hard to tolerate. By saying "I know it's bad right now, but this small thing happened and I wanted to share it", it sets the proper tone to avoid that. Maybe that's just me, though.

Well put. I definitely feel this way.
