Question of the Day

[dogriver]

Is there something that, in your opinion, the world obsesses over but
you think it shouldn't bother?

I agree with you in every respect other than Canadian football, which I am convinced will be played in Heaven.

Firstly, gotta agree with the obsessions of not only physical beauty and sex, but also the sports. How about everybody's obsession with everybody else's weight. Mind your own business, fatso, and let me be overweight and die if I wish! How about the need to give or take offense and to be hypersensitive overall. C'mon, relax, enjoy your shoes, and thicken your skin! How about the fictional link between happiness and money, power and status. I find I'm quite happy even with little money and for all I know, absolutely no power or status. All hail obscurity! And lastly, the idea that it is wrong to be different and those who are different from any perceived norm must be penalized for existing! Right, I think that'll do for now. Ah, misanthropy!
