Firstly, I'm not a big fan of this unprecedented level of busyness. I think it's precedented for me actually, I mean it should be, but it still sucks.
But, I've done it before, and I'll do it again. I just need to push it to the limit, walk along the razor's edge. Et al.
And hey, it doesn't mean I don't have time to expound about something or other in the world today.
I touched on allergies yesterday, but today I'd like to bring up a disturbing semi-trend I've encountered: The Allergy Mask.
Never, and I do mean ever, is this acceptable. I don't care if one breath of the air will literally kill you. Tough luck, good riddance.
It's mostly old people I see sporting these, so they are indifferent to other's opinion of them. But I saw some guy my age in one today. Well, after I got over the initial feeling that he was indeed a terrorist dropping toxic gas on us, I noticed he was young.
I don't care if you have sniffling, sneezing, runny nose, cough, hay fever, sleep apnea, AIDS, the plague, herpes, leeches, 90% chance of showers, testosterone deficiency, or whatever the hell else it is. If you wear this in public, you are a loser.
Do what the rest of us do, overdose on allergy medication. Sure you might pass out, but atleast you won't look like a freak.
Here are some more examples of this monstrosity.
General rule of thumb: if Michael Jackson does it, you shouldn't. Except for maybe producing multi-platinum records. You can do that.
