Focusing on my past life, in a previous world, or possibly a previous galaxy, generation, or any other unit of the universe, I have learned that the significance of living is a huge factor in ones "so-called" eventful life.
But now that I am here, in this wonderful chocolate bar called the Milky Way, I have learned that the only significant thing about life is the end.
We, as a Dysfunctional Society, believe in a sudden mass death of every creature here on this Planet. We believe in ice ages, meteors destroying the world, and, my absolute favorite, the infamous black hole sucking up our bodies into space.
Are we idiotic? Are we stupid? Or do we just want some sort of recognition for even thinking that something of this magnitude could ever happen?
These three questions are hard to answer. The only possible way to find an answer is to take a poll from every single person on this Planet Earth (including the aliens) and that, my humble friend, is very hard to do.
So with every gasping breath, pray to your God, whoever he may be, (atheists..you are welcomed to pray too, sarcastically of course), that we as an absolutely idiotic society can live and not face the dangers of a hungry black hole.
We are faced with a difficult challenge here. We are told by society that we must eat Milky Way's just because they're named after this wonderful galaxy of ours....(Did you hear?! Now you can buy them with just a caramel filling!) We are told to watch movies like Ice Age and 2012 just so we will believe that the world, in actuality, will be destroyed in the next year. We are told by the History Channel and SyFy that we do, indeed, have aliens living among us.
To hell with this crap. Can we just live, please? Without fear? Is that too much to ask. I don't know about you, but I just want to listen to psychedelic music and eat my frozen dinners until my body decides its had enough of this world.
So, world, put down your survival guides, newspapers, and romantic novels...turn off the stupid tv shows like Jersey Shore and Teen Mom and a whole bunch of other worthless shows I will not name....grab a Twix, pause....take a moment....
Let's conquer this Dysfunctional Society!
I like how you have started this blog. An intriguing mix of themes (the end of the universe, chocolate bars and fear). I think Douglas Adams would be proud.
ReplyDeleteI am reminded of that old Doors song: "This is the end... my only friend, the end."
