But no, we have to go to the Black Friday sales that start at 8pm on Thanksgiving, stand in lines, camp out in a lawn chair to be first in line to get the latest digital crap made in China that used to be an American job that will be obsolete in six months. Not only that, but what your in a frenzy to buy is probably some kind of computer or phone interface that you spend all your time looking at regardless of whether your driving a car, out on a date with a hot chick (shes got one too) or walking across the street against the red light. Yes you have totally lost touch with physical reality and are totally trapped in a digital interface. But hey, for $75 bucks a month its better than your real life. Not to mention all the poor underpaid super discount center worker bees that have to show up to work and nearly get trampled to death by mad dog hordes of shoppers for a wage that still requires them to live with the help of food stamps.
We have totally lost it. Call of Duty my ass ... vacate your brain more like it. |
