Cogs Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 This nonsense no longer surprises or even particularly annoys me. The mistake is to think these people have any sense of decency or proportion. They do not. I emphasise that because it is hard for normal people to imagine how this is possible. Its a good thing in a way, what makes you human is the bit of your mind that suspects they secretly might. But this isn't the last reel of Return of the Jedi and Darth Vader doesn't feel a damn thing, he'll just casually chop your head off with his lightsaber and get on with dominating the universe in peace. Brett Easton Ellis wrote a very clever satirical novel on this theme. Just because its satire doesn't mean anyone is joking though. They'll either be stopped eventually or they'll keep doing it (just like the 'psycho' in fact). Probably just keep doing it, so don't let them mess up your blood pressure as well as everything else.
