The State of the World?

This morning on CBC’s Metro Morning they had an interview with a senior climatologist with Environment Canada, Dave Phillips. They spoke about people no longer putting their faith in those who predict the weather. I’m guessing they refer to it as a “prediction” for a reason? But what do I know?

Caveats with moronic logic aside, I know, it’s virtually impossible to see what is so clearly the reason for it all with your head so far up in your ass, but if you’re one of these people — I’m really asking — what the fuck is wrong with you idiots? There’s so much more going on in the world than your shitty “picnic” or your stupid fucking “wedding ceremony.”

Take today’s headlines, from the CBC alone, as a perfect example…

Canadian Stranded in Kenya Angry at Government: Here we have yet another Canadian citizen, Suaad Haji Mohamud, stranded in a foreign country, separated from her child, stripped of her passport, and jailed all because some power-tripping needle-dicks, both in Kenya, and here in Canada, deemed her an impostor simply because they thought “her facial features looked the same, but her lips looked different than those of the person in the four-year-old Canadian passport photo…” But, I hear ya, you cannot plan your  day without a reliable weather forecast…

Personal bankruptcies soar 50%: Capitalism hurts far more people than it helps. But, silly me, you only care care when you’re inconvenienced…

Moose Chased to Exhaustion, Beaten by Boys: Then maybe, rather than do all we can to help what I can only assume are frightened, tired, and beaten individuals, we should put a bullet in your head, hoping to relieve you of the “misery” weather forecasters have forced you to endure…

Is it really any wonder why the world is in the shape it’s in?
