Forget The Horses

You know what the great sign of the Apocalypse is?  Autotune.  People out there are going on about war and pollution but I'm telling you this - you know how we can be sure that the end is nigh?  The fact that just about everyone on radio sounds like a computer with laryngitis.

How did this happen?  When did this happen?  And, how have we not all gone catatonic from the assault on our senses?  This is worse than McDonald's and Pizza Hut trying to pass off their fare as gourmet.  yes, McCafe, I'm looking at you.  Adding an accent grave does not high quality food make.  It just serves to deaden the taste buds, apparently.  

Dead ears.  Dead taste buds.  Oh no... wait... Is this it?  Is there no hope left?

"Lasciate ogni speranza voi che entrate". Written in the gates of hell according to Dante Allighieri.

Really, what is the world coming to? In many ways, I live very much in a bubble here. We try mighty hard to ignore what's going on everywhere else.

Ha! That is true Oscar. So keeping a little hope may keep me out of hell. AND I got a mini Italian lesson.

Sometimes bubbles are good, Carla. Everywhere else can be a hard thing to learn about.

Add to the above the silly music in super markets and shopping centers...

Oh man, Dodo! Doesn't that just drive one mad? It makes me want to run from the store, not stick around and shop.
