This blog is under no obligation to be witty, entertaining, insightful, visually pleasing, or otherwise un-boring in any way. And you are under no obligation to read it!
An update: after discussing with my advisor today, I guess it is not as bad as it first seemed. There is enough different between what we are doing and what they are doing to still make our paper worthwhile. Still, it stinks that they got it done first. Of course, they seem to have submitted theirs before I even starting working on my new project, so I can't really complain there.
Oh good; I'm glad I came back and saw this ray of hope in the comments. :-) I hope it works out, and soon, and you get it published, and you can be DONE!!

Ohhhhhh no! I can't believe it. (And I can't believe there's a cartoon for it.) I'm sorry!

Research sounds like a nightmare. I'm so amazed that anyone including you does it! It clearly has it's benefits, but seriously, so upsetting.
I hope yours is better.
