What's wrong with the world today?

Re: What's wrong with the world today?

Probably not, but that lack of typing your words out (seriously, are those few extra letters really that hard to reach?) is certainly a small step to getting there.

There's plenty wrong with this world. It won't change until we do. Will it happen in our lifetimes? No, not a chance. However, we still strive for that unreachable, ever-beyond-our-grasp brass ring in the hope that someday, our efforts will have paid off for our descendants. Humanity needs that hope, for without it, we've reached evolutionary death, and might as well toss in the towel and move over for the next dominant species on this planet to give it a shot.

oh, the technological singularity is only about a century off, but there won't be any need for a queen.

Re: What's wrong with the world today?

Yeah, but do we want the possibility of Khan to appear?

Lets just say, weed out the truely stupid with Darwin Awards to each person who can kill themselves. Then get double the prize. Followed by kill off close relatives to insure no contiuing family line.

Or we could go the Borg route, nano probes and a queen. Hmmm, ready for assimilation.

Same thing that's always been wrong with it, idiots.

If we manage to do selective breeding to only have smart children, humanity might finally start to improve some on more than a technological scale.

Ungrateful people. Take some of the people that I work with...without regard to nationality. If you don't like my country, leave. It really is that simple. I don't want you here.

People that don't take responsibility for their actions and choose instead to blame other people for their mistakes.

People who think that they are better than everybody else.

Gold diggers. ...male or female.

Liars, cheats, and swindlers.

Just the basics I suppose.

Re: What's wrong with the world today?

Too many things really...

1. China and their unfair trade practices. Why we (Western Society) haven't boy cotted them by now is beyond me
2. The Middle East. It's not that there aren't good people there (Israel) but it really does look like nothing short of nuking it off the face of the Earth will put an end to this shit.
3. Africa. It's a lost cause.
4. Racism. People think it's mostly gone, but it isn't. It's still (unfortunately) quite prevalent in Western Society. African Americans being racist against Cocasions and throwing fits when it's thrown back at them (you can't have a double standard people...) and well... too many ignorant people in general (mostly white I'm sure -.-) that are biggots. Can we not put an end to this crap?
5. Corporate America. Way, way too much influence on the government and too much god damn money at the top. When are Americans going to wake the fuck up and revolt? No other civilization in history has/would have put up with the BS that's been going on. I say march on the whitehouse and take Bush and Cheyney out by force (and everyone else involved with them). Not sure what to do with them though, even Hanging (the most demeaning form of death, at least in some faiths) is too good for them. The founding fathers must be turning in their graves >

I could go on for a while. Life isn't perfect, but there's a lot of problems that could/should have been dealt with a long time ago (like Oil and diseases... but there's too much money in that.) and sometimes I wonder if if it'll ever get better.


Barack Obama ftw.

The media. Namely South Park. >_>

Oh, also, people who don't know how to use Spoiler boxes for their gargantuan-sized images.

Trust me, I will have MUCH more once I can think without my screen strentched to about twice the regular pagelength.

Oh, and one more thing: of course, we haven't yet seen you (by "you," I mean the OP, TM) eating anything that even bears a slight resemblance to a Time Mage hat.

Re: What's wrong with the world today?

Lightning fast communication- images, thoughts, blogs and gossip.
It's always been Fd up- we just never heard about it in so many ways,
from so many countries, in such unending need to tell every single
detail. Of course, it's the negative and wierd, depraved and lonely,
and mostly useless retoric that takes precedence over the good
and rightousness that exists in all of us.
