If you can be bothered. I mean there's not much point, is there? With illiteracy rates climbing steadily in the western world it's a wonder anyone can still read it, we'll have to start producing a pictures-only version so that the faceless hordes that fuel the capitalist machine can consume without actually having to learn or understand anything. Eventually we'll all just be mindless slaves to some greater power, living in a state of deluded ignorance like in the Matrix, all the while fuelling some huge, bloated and corrupt elite, although to be honest even that doesn't matter an awful lot since the Earth is due to be swallowed up in a nuclear inferno when the sun goes nova in a few billion years anyway, so I don't really see the point in doing that, I mean we're all just meaningless carbon-oxygen motes anyway, cells in a vast, unthinking, uncaring global organism, bouncing randomly off one another while we wait to be recycled into alternative arrangements of matter. Matter. Hah! There's an ironic word- everything's made of matter, but what does it matter? Sigh. Honestly, I'd shoot myself if it not for A) the fact that I'd have to buy a bullet, and in so doing help support the guns companies which are a key part of the sinister global entertainment-industrial-military complex that overshadows human destiny B) an act of such futile despair that it would only add to the world's misery and so help usher in the bleak future of oppression, poverty, misery and drudgery that now is the ultimately-inconsequential fate of all humankind.
Ah well, at least we still have milkshake.
