MMeM, Vol.9 Issue 2 – Like da barber say, NEXT!?

Hey Jack what say you about all of that nothin’?

I am always amused by how much there is NEVER any follow-up on anyone, anything, or anybody after a major worryGATE has passed without its big prediction coming true. For months and weeks, news factories are churning out stories and anlges on stories that had never even been considered that ramp up these huge celestial hyped events!

And then…

The moment in time comes and passes, and once again, nothing happens.

That’s fine that nothing really happens I mean who’s actually rooting on a Fiscal Cliff or an ancient civilization’s psuedo-prediction for the end of the world? No one, except the people trying to profit off of the storytelling, err, reporting of these news stories…Fairy Tales.

It would be nice if the world would take a day or God forbid 1/20th of the time they took to get us all collectively pissing in our depends to turn our heads back to these failed prognosticators to ask, “Hey Jack, what say you about all of that nothin?” It’s just that all of these false warnings take a toll on a society that really has be worked into a frenzy about anything real. I mean, we still have PEOPLE STARVING TO DEATH ON EARTH! What more convincing does anyone need that maybe we should be sharing stuff a bit better?

So, with each one of these false alarms we eat (don’t pardon that pun) away at our ability to immobilize for anything actually real in the future. I’ve said it before, but yes my mother read me the book, “The Boy Who Cried Wolf”. It worked for me.
