6?

Look, some people need medication.  Some people, (through no fault of their own), just came out scrambled and medication is a life saver.  But that's not most of us.

This is most of us - spiritually, emotionally, and sometimes physically: lazy, undisciplined, forever opting the easiest and shortest path of least resistance. 

We can't stop shoving Fritos into our faces, so we get gastric bypass.  Which makes you fart.  Big stinky farts and lots of them.  We prefer this to actually acquiring discipline or managing our behaviors. 

Trust me, one thing you don't want to be around is an even fartier Little Bored Fauntleroy.  I've already got enough gas to power a small country. 

All I'm getting at is...All I want to say is...Christ, what am I trying to say?


Can't we have a kinder, gentler earth?  No, that's not it...






Has it occurred to anyone that maybe feeling like there's no reason to live, considering options, feeling depressed - all these might actually be a good thing, or at least a valid thing, a natural part of the arc of life? That maybe we should stop opting for easy solutions to the ideals everyone else dictates; that this pumped up, antiquated, unimaginative, shallow, easy, lazy, horrific definition of "normal" is really what is damaging people?
