The Horror

Listen guys - I am drunk, okay? I am drunk because today I had a bad experience.... I realised that alot of people just dont give a damn anymore.

I watched a couple, obviously in lust with each other (sorry, *in love* with each other) walking down a pavement. An old lady was walking the other way. She had to step off the pavement and into the paths of fast cars because those two lusters (er... sorry *lovers*) couldnt find it in their freaking eyes or brains to realise there was another human being on the same path and move aside to let her pass.

Basic human kindness and basic *POLITENESS* seems to be a thing of the past.

I dont base this RANT on the one incident above - I have noticed over the past 20 years just how much we are deteriorating into a society of selfishness, non-compassion, non-empathetic, aggressive, indifferent and very apathetic society.

Isnt the western world supposed to set an example?

Wasnt 9/11 meant to unite people, but instead we throw accusation, mistrust and hate at each other - we trust no one.

Remind me that you guys actually give a fuck??

Shit, I'm pissed! (alcohol induced rant, as well as angry!!!!) :mad:

Did you ingest alcohol before this incident?

No, it hit me just how *non-thinking* the human race is becoming. Watchng the scene of two people walking down a path and not moving over a foot for someone else just seemed to confirm in my heart just how *non-thinking* and/or discompassionate people are becoming. The path was big enough for 3 people astride; the couple hogged two thirds of the path and the lady had to step down into the road to pass them.

Come on, its basic politeness to move across to allow others to pass, surely?

Maybe its not a big deal to you but that couple didnt give a fuck - period!

But this rant isnt just about that particular incident - the basic *dont give a fuck* is happening EVERYWHERE!

Oh, I know what you're saying, and I see this too.

BUT, there's a way you can do something about this!

Go out there and be nice to people! Be friendly. Help people. Especially, help people less fortunate, if you can.

Show the people out there that there ARE people who care. Be one of those people.

I'm trying to believe that *there is still some good people in this world"... I truly am!

I think that's why its unsettling me this way... being *aware* of just how unkind or uncaring alot of people are these days.

I am one of those kind ones but its tiring witnessing the non-thinking that seems to be escalating of late!

Sorry, guys!! Alcohol induced sadness!! once I'm sober, I will think the same way, just wont vocalise it so *in ya face!! :o
