this is something my parents used to say whilst shaking their heads when something unbelievable happened. i caught myself wondering it lately, because of a series of incidents:
1) scientists are developing a sticker which shows the consumer when a piece of fruit is ripe. just how lazy and ill-informed can people be?
2) 30% of canadians don't know they have HIV. this is staggering. stephen harper didn't attend the international AIDS conference in toronto (not as if it were in fucking zambia or something-- still, no excuse).
3) there are more obese people in the world than hungry people. this is downright appalling. i mean-- it's absolutely atrocious that there is more than enough food on earth, people are starving and we in the west are emotional eating away our healthcare scrill. i hate everything.

On the bright side though, the population of the fat west is much smaller than that of the rest of the world, so the number of hungry people may have actually gotten smaller.
Still, we're a bunch of fat bastards. Maybe it would solve the problem if we sent our fattest, most gluttinous citizens to the hungry people along with pamphlets that say "Cannibalism is OK in situations like these".
McDonalds in Ethiopia can start selling McCEOs and Stock Trader McNuggets.
hahaha. i totally concur. let's do it.
sorry, the above was me.
glad we could make you laugh. i wish i had something that would make me laugh 'til i cried or puked or bled right now. it's possible i haven't seen all the funny videos on the internet. but alas, i'm procrastinating-- again...
