Do I really mean this?
I was thinking how nowadays irony is so pervasive that we can't even recognize it anymore. I wonder if this grand self-delusion is helping us at all?
How many things that we enjoy consuming do we consume because we like them, and how many do we consume because we like disliking them? Or because we like feeling better than the people on TV.
How many movies do we watch and say "well it's totally awful, it's terrible, but it's terrible in such a good way!"
It's totally wrong to have contempt for someone, unless, like, they're totally dumb and uneducated. Then they deserve it.
Anyway, I'll start worrying about it after Blind Date's finished...
