Consistency is contrary to nature, contrary to life. The only completely consistent people are dead...and, because I am feeling a sense of irony this morning: Cynical realism is the intelligent man's best excuse for doing nothing in an intolerable situation.- Aldous Huxley
Two quick things: Below the two lists on the left-hand side of the blog's page, you will find a "Followers" button. I have no idea what this means, but I think it will send you notifications of new blogs. You may or may not want this. However, if my blog has been at all interesting and you do like it, please become a follower. Also, feel free to comment, reply, argue, etc. I don't really know what I am doing yet, and am working through this process. I am trying to bring some laughter -- albeit darkly at times -- to people. I am also trying to raise awareness when possible of the strange mechanics of American and global social life...I hope this has been good.
Second, I would like to say one thing about capitalism as a shitty system. Why is it that if I do not pay my cable bill by the date they tell me to, I get a finance charge, but when the cable is down and the internet is down and I cannot use the service I am paying for, I get long waits on hold and little to no sympathy from customer service? In a just world, they would credit my account for services not rendered. Just something to consider this morning.
