my bad...
By worm
a brittle cocoon
of raucous thoughts surround
my ever tightening awareness
warning me that all is not
what it is meant to be
when did righteousness
subvert itself to be the next player
on the “price is right”?
why are we not shocked
at the very thought of
babies having babies?
fifty years ago, today’s norm
would have sent society’s establishment
spiraling into a tailspin of gigantic proportions
thereby causing the total downfall Western values
oh!
wait a second
my
bad

I was listening to an old "Girl on Guy" podcast interview with Seth Green last night and he observed how FB had brought teenaged worldview to adults... "Here is the music I like"; "Here is the fashion statements I make"; "Didn't (insert actresses' name) look tacky at the Oscars? I know, right?!" He said it was a new kind of superficial frivolity that can now be quantified, unlike when we were young, where it was mostly abstract. I have 200 friends, but she has 950 friends. Only 2 people liked my comment.

It was an interesting take on things. Lots of positive and interesting results of recent technological advances...but in the end it also makes things easier to disseminate and promote the base parts of our culture and human nature. You can get all of Shakespeare's works for free whenever you want to read them. You can have any book you want downloaded into a small light device. But you can also access the cyber bordello of the billion plus dollar porn industry...at any time...which by the numbers more people choose to do that read Shakespeare.

It provides an environment where anyone can put their thoughts and creativity out there, for almost nothing...but still the easiest way to be noticed is to be loud, profane and mean-spirited...or, of course, feign huge offense at small things... Very interesting times. I think technology is amplifying our ability to communicate our collective personalities and morals...and, as a result, we are realizing we are generally a bunch of douche-bags. : )

I just re-read your thoughts on this... You, my friend have hit the proverbial nail on it's freaking head!!! what was true four years ago has been amplified beyond belief! anyone over the age of eighteen should eat the pill and allow those technology laden brats to fend for themselves... lets see how far they will get when the store shelves are out of ring-dings and cheetos... God help us all!!!

I think everyone is vain to some extent. I guess it is about accepting yourself flaws and all. One of the hardest things to do
