I've been attempting to monitor the news today to check on events in Egypt (did you know that 17 people have been killed in renewed rioting)...Ukraine (fighting has intensified), the Middle East (ISIS is wanting to trade a female prisoner in Jordan for the remaining Japanese hostage...and I missed the broadcast but the name of the female ISIS hostage was leaked by the President's Chief of Staff) and elsewhere.
What do I find instead?
News about a freaking snow storm!
Who gives a shit!
Its gonna snow. You might even get to record "snow thunder" and put it on YouTube. If you're like the people I hang out with you'll get to test your preps and there was no hurry to rush to the grocery store to stock up...you have alternate heating if the electricity goes out...you're ready.
This happens every year but people act as if they're experiencing it for the first time...EVERY FUCKING YEAR!!!!!!
I won't even get into the declaration of a state of emergency and the ordering of people off the roads. If you're stupid enough to drive in snow drifts then you deserve the Darwin Award and should not be fined....just buried deep.
I don't know what's going on with the US.
Are we really this pussified that a simple snow storm causes people to lose their minds? If we are...and it sure seems like it...then there is no way we can win the future.
RANT OFF.
