how come?

i always wonder why people are being a ted selfish each passing day, everyone stairs back when I smile and drive like crazy on the road. Its like people care what means only to them. What is in for them and their destination is what matter.

Perhaps, they are burdened with pressing lifestyle. As life gets tough, they become rude as a way to show their displease towards everything that is going on in their life. this is the thing which worries me most. People forget the principle of being part of a community.

A stand up comedy that i used to watch, presented Chris Rock for 20 minutes. He certainly live up to his name as his stand up was certainly entertaining. One part of his joke that stuck in my head till today was the line where he jokes about the rap music. He said that in his time rap music can be analyse intellectually.

Those lyrics meant something, and its not just cursing words. however today, rap music is getting difficult to defend. The meaning sometime only escalate of sex and nothing worth looking into.

So Chris Rock implies that as long as the tune is right people don't give a damn what the real message is.

He has a point there, its like either people are more open or they are becoming less intellectual. I seldom assume the worst of people, but the prove is right in front of your eyes. The driving are immensely horrible, the starring gets worst. Its like they judge when they look at you. They don't care unless you have something for them.

i wonder what ten years from now will be. what is wrong with replying with a smile?

  1. I think everyone is getting desensitized to it all. I shudder every morning when I look a the LA times sports page. There is always at least one ad for "male enhancement products" or something like that....Kids are looking at the sports page. Also, every disney channel show now has constant fart references in it. I know it's not a major thing, but just another indication that things are slipping...
    It's all going to pieces...

  2. Oh yeah, and there is also the fact that we seem to be "dumbing down" as a society...So I guess I see the worst in people also.
