The world is a strange place

Today I have found out just how strange the world is. You can find absolute and sublime beauty, such as photographs taken by Cheetos Oona, and yet in this same world you can buy unicorn farts lip balm.

Need I say more.

Now I would like to know if the world has always been this strange, or is this a recent thing highlighted by the binary highway that controls our lives, “the internet”?

The internet is a many splendid thing, it does not think or feel or speak and yet it conveys all these things.

It can be incredibly useful or wonderfully inspiring. It can also allow you to lose your job for spending too much time squeeing at cats.

That’s another thing the internet has changed, language. The internet generates its very own language that seeps into everyday usage. It has allowed a global language to develop where words like “squee” are assimilated.

So I propose this, the world is a very strange place, has always been a strange place, but the internet has concentrated it.

It has collected all the information from the many minds that feed it on a daily basis and funnelled all this strangeness into one place.

This has created a world where Billions of people can sit at home, watch a video of a cat jumping into a box and say Squee.

All this and you can still do your shopping.

We love the internet.
