The server is down at the moment, so I'm not sure, but did he claim to be giving advice on how to live a happy life? The title of the link says "successful", which for many people is a very different goal.
I hardly knew who Kevin Smith was before I read this post (and then googled him), but I also had the impression of him being depressed. I remember how he told an airline to fuck off because he was too fat to fit in his seat. His neutral face also looks kinda sad. And he's very fat. Both are strong signs of depression, but not proof in any way.
He probably isn't very depressed at the moment (he claims weed got him off his depression), but I can see why people who don't know much about him thinks that way. Being very fat and not smiling are more than enough "proof" for most people to judge wether people are depressed or not.

This is nice, but I'm disinclined to take useful advice on how to live my life from people who are apparently less happy than I am.

Just curious but where do you get the impression that he is anything but happy?
I don't know how happy you are, but Kevin Smith seems pretty damn happy with his life.
Maybe he's one of those persons that, you know, are just happy to be happy.
Their happiness might be thought of as the result of this pseudo code :
