Sometimes I feel like my brain is completely void of intelligent thought. I
don’t know if I'm just speaking for myself but I feel like we are all becoming
more stupid by the day. I've grown up in one of the most revolutionary times
this planet has ever seen through progresses in technology and the rise of the
internet but with this ever sprawling map of information at my fingertips I
can’t explain how pointless it all seems. If a campaign like KONY 2012 is what
it takes to get our attention (which by the way I was completely sucked in by)
then we really are in a bad way. The media has rendered us sitting ducks to
those with the loudest bull horns and money is the driving force behind that
volume. I can’t ignore it, it’s like my alarm clock keeps ringing until I
finally go back to sleep and even then it invades my dreams.
If I was to switch on music
television or the radio right now I guarantee within two songs I’ll have been
ordered to have a party.... WHY? Why the fuck should we all be so focused on
dancing, drinking and fucking each other? distraction is a constant in today’s
society it’s like trying to think with a never ending firework display going
on, it’s only a matter of time before you give in and turn around to “ooh” and
“aahh” at the bright bursting colours and deafening bangs. So our surroundings
themselves have become an annoying attention seeking child hell bent on us
watching their shit new dance that they made up at school and 90% of the time I
can’t stand it. I suppose though that I’m just being a negative Norman. Sometimes
I revel in the idiocy of it all and as the saying goes ‘if you can’t beat em (and
I can’t) Join them.’ So joining in until my next desperate need to rant seems
like an easy option.
I’m not incapable of enjoying myself however much this little blog might
paint that picture; I just don’t like the world. There are trillions of things
wrong with it and that affects me because I’m stuck here. Now for fuck sake
will someone start building more water parks.
