Maybe because religious people know they will be singled out, harassed and ridiculed online that they simply choose to avoid the issue.

Take Slashdot, for example. If you say anything about religion that isn't prejudiced and bigoted (or at least passive-aggressive), you get modded down until you can't talk any more.

Which is pretty much what Internet culture wants: conform to our way of thinking or be silenced. Sound familiar?

But I thought outsourcing was the solution to all our problems? It was going to make everything cheaper and lead to a capitalist utopia of free beer, cheap drugs and hookers?

Or maybe it was a bill of goods sold to us by lazy pigs who were too busy filling their pockets to plan ahead more than one fiscal quarter?

After the space station burns up in the atmosphere maybe China will flip the switch on Wal-Mart and we can watch the middle third of the country go dark too.

It's April 1, also known as "worthless day" on the Internet. Every dumbfuck on the web will trot out their particularly unfunny brand of pranks in an attempt to impress Reddit, and fail.

Meanwhile, if you planned to do anything useful today, either go back to bed or fire up a marathon Civilization game. The web is absolutely worthless until midnight.

Occulus was doomed from the moment it was announced.

It's just the most recent version of "virtual reality hype" (which started with VRML in 1996), which is guaranteed to attract stupid money, which is guaranteed to ruin everything it buys.

Facebook is a volcano of stupid money. It flows like lava, and destroys everything it touches. The only way to avoid it is to not live near the volcano.

Here's how I see the world:

1. Everything sucks
2. I will not pay for anything, no matter what the quality to cost ratio is. Any game with a price tag is the man trying to keep me down. In fact, if daily raging taser-sex with a different college's cheerleaders followed by a 29-foot roast beef buffet were priced at $0.02 and I had a half-off coupon, I'd still bitch like the entitled little fuck I am.

America is no longer able to conduct basic business. Our national capacity for common sense and rational action is so diminished by now that the simple act of taking out the trash is beyond us.

There are various causes for this but I place the blame squarely on our complete lack of leadership. There are no leaders in this country any more. Oh sure, there are people grabbing for the microphone so they can hog the limelight long enough to fill their pockets, but beyond that, we simply have no leaders left.

We've got ten years, if that. It ends in civil war, dictatorship or mass secession. The only good news is America will serve as historical proof that humanity is too childish and primitive to be trusted with liberty.
