This is not a plea for myself, rather it is meant as an amalgam of that certain breed of help request that I see here from time to time on PerlMonks.

my %problem = {
        homework => "is hard",
        effort => "is minimal",
        asking => "is easier" };

my %thoughts = {
        everyone => "will pity me",
        someone => "will help me",
        PerlMonks => "will save me"};
