Came across this awhile ago, and I started a post around it but never finished my thoughts. It raises some amusing questions... I have no clue now where I found it.
A: They're very odd people, you know. When they're young, they have their teeth straightened, their tonsils taken out and gallons of vitamins pumped into them. Something happens to their insides! They become immunized, mechanized, air-conditioned and hydromatic. I'm not even sure whether he has a heart.
M: What is he? A creature from outer space?
A: No. He's an American.
Too much consumption of all things trendy, from health to aesthetics to nourishment to opinion. Life inches towards artificiality and shallowness, and no one even realizes it. Let's have more old-fashioned hands-on craftsmanship, and more personal responsibility in all aspects of life, and re-visit respecting others in the face of disagreements- not just when in agreement. Be a true original, not a trendy one.
