We're all such sheep. I mean it's shocking really. "We" being the collective entity - of stupid humans - who will just blindly follow without thought or reason, anything simply suggested to them, no matter how inane or obvious that suggestion may be.
I give you exhibit A:
The mother fucking macarena. What the fuck? Seriously. Why?
And now, we shall proceed to Exhibits B, C & D:
This is a grouping of the sort of shit that really irks me.
It is plastic and synthetic fur people. There is no need to horde or fight life or death battles for the damn things just because the media says they are a necessity. I imagine survival of the fittest did not entail battery operated vibrating dolls (insert snarky sexual inuendo here).
I could post images all night but really I think you get the gist. All it takes is the hint that something is the "it" the "now" the "simply must have, be, know, do, think - if I wear GAP I'll be Carrie Bradshaw and Lenny Kravitz will serenade me (or Joss Stone will serenade Lenny - whomever the chosen one is this week), if I wear that color, carry that purse, own those shoes THEN I will have arrived." But arrived where exactly? Dancing the goddamned macarena with a Kate Spade knock off and Tickle Me Elmo laughing maniacally in his consumer infested corner.
I don't claim not to have fallen prey to consumerism more often than I care to discuss, but I will tell you this, I have never done any kind of synchronized dancing. That shit is just seriously wrong on all sorts of levels. I reject it entirely.
Ah the power of suggestion - what a dying art...the things we could suggest others do if we really took the time to be creative.
