I was on Facebook today and one of those things got posted by my friend. You know the things. They have absolutely no point except to waste time and entertain us. We post them on our walls because we got sucked into the swirling vortex of Facebook procrastination and we aren't going to go down without taking someone with us! Today's was the "Design a CD cover using random stuff from around the web" one. I've done that before, and always "cheated" to make my CD cover more interesting and less random. Today I decided to do it again, and to not cheat. I followed the rules to a "t." This time I didn't get some random conglomeration of text and images that left my brain forever the minute I stopped looking at it. And honestly, when I got to finding the picture, I wanted to cheat. I didn't want to go with the picture I got. But the text with the picture truly makes a statement about the state of the world right now.
It seems like every time I turn on the news, I hear another story about getting revenge or getting involved in another country's civil war. Some group of people launches an offensive against another group of people, and the other group of people are obligated to launch a counter-strike back at them.
Where would you put it?
