Anti Pleasure

Too much variety!

What is wrong with our society?

I don’t know why it has come to this, but what is up with all of these reality shows? It seems like every celebrity (or d-list celebrities!) make reality shows. Is there really a need for the Hogans to have their own SHOWS? I remember watching the Ozzy’s reality show and cracking up a few years ago… but now it seems like pathetic trend for the celebrities to follow.

I was going to use this post to banter about reality television, but that is not the main issue here. What I find so strange is that we have these different color I-pods, faster computers, a cereal outdoing another cereal with vanilla flavor or chocolate flavor! What else can I list here, oh yeah, just about everything you can think of for hair and make up, cell phones (a pink one, a blue one, a blackberry, an iPhone, blah blah blah) and cell phone cases. WHAT THE HELL PEOPLE? I tend not to waste my money on these ridiculous things that seem to be advertised on television tremendously whenever you turn it on.

The internet, I find, is an era where children are growing up and getting the wrong ideas about life. Is there really a need for us to know where Britney Spears is eating at? WHO CARES! And also, what celebrities are wearing, who said this, who said that. We as a society have become SO materialistic, that we have forgotten about starving populations and people getting paid five cents a day, breaking their backs just so you can have the latest Nike shoes or whatever else is trendy these days.

I find that there is too much variety in life, and none of these things are ever useful. You would rather buy these gimmicks than donate a couple dollars to charity here and there? Nuts I tell you.

I’m not saying to adopt a child from those info commercials, but when is the last time you did your good deed and stopped getting so wrapped up in yourself worrying about if you have the latest equipment in technology or fashion?

Wake up people, life is not about these stupid “you tube stars” or “reality tv stars”, start doing something more productive. Use your BRAIN once in a while and realize what is going on. There is something new being discovered about our world each day. There are thousands of people dying every day, and you’re sitting around waiting for the Hills to come on. Puh-lease. I hope all of this is relative. *shrug* I just had to have a rant today.

Humanity is doomed.
