Also, global warming? Total effing letdown. Americans are no longer believing in it. Do you know why? Not because the mountains of scientific proof aren’t there. Not because it’s not happening. But because it’s not yet happening to us like they said it would in the movies and those worst-case scenario books. Where are the zombies? The ice forests? Where’s the tidal wave crashing over the Himalayas? I want my goddamn apocalypse, and I want it now.
Ten years ago Tyler Durden warned us:
“Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don’t need.”
We still haven’t gotten the message.
Hopefully no no one dies this year to save 10% on a new TV.
