In a society of nameless faceless non-individualism we make ourselves numb in order to compensate for the emotional pain caused by our lack of belonging and inability to be unique. This compensation often manifests itself by us seeking intense sensations: We intoxicate ourselves with alcohol and other drugs. We build machines that propel our minds faster and faster into a infinite nowhere, an endless man made 5th dimension called cyberspace ... And others turn to self mutilation. We tattoo yourselves, we pierce, we brand, we amputate and we slice, yet STILL we are not satisfied. Some of us must inflict intense sensations upon others to feel that we are more than just an abstract idea. As time goes on, and the populations of the world increase, we become more a society of sadists, masochists and 'nonists'. We love to watch ourselves being torn to bits almost as much as we enjoy seeing others brutalized. We, as a people, LOVE to see our fellows shot, stabbed, bludgeoned and blown up. "Not true", you say? Just turn on your TV. The Roman coliseum is alive and well! ... In our age, we can all be the 'Caesar'! And the actors who die for the glory of our new Rome teach our children that killing is an act as natural as eating or shitting, only with less consequence. What is disseminated in the media IS what we accept as reality. How could our mundane existence away from our favorite TV shows possibly be our real lives? That is unacceptable! NO! TV is the 'real' reality! However, when most of us can not live up to the images and standards set by the 'TV reality' we become confused. Our confusion leads to fear, our fear leads to displaced anger. We lash out, or we turn inward. We become suicidal or homicidal. We are becoming a society of homicidal psychopaths and suicides. So enjoy your life... Sit back, have a beer, and watch your reality unfold on the tube.
I wanted to start a new trend...If I could get my hands on a two handed bastard sword and run myself thru... But for real a coworker and I were discussing what peoples babies will be doing 20 years from now to make themselves "pretty", for a lack of better words..a few we came up with were: <UL TYPE=SQUARE> <LI>Color pills (any color) to affect the pigment in your skin...generally lasting a few days I guess. <LI>Limb graphing.. which would allow kids to have extra limbs protruding from carefully chosen locations. [/list] Any others you crazy fucks can come up with?? Dont let me down.... ------------------ more than meets the brown eye...
