I was watching TV the other day, maybe last week, I'm not sure anymore, but it showed people swimming with dolphins. Just humans swimming with marine mammals. Mammals, together. Animals, all.
Then I thought to myself: hey, that's nice. As one species who likes to get along with other species sometimes, we really should do this more often.
Then: where did we go wrong? When did our existence begin to be all about working our asses off to make someone else richer, when we're the only animal on the planet that gives a fuck about money?
Shouldn't we just... live? Hang around, fuck around, walk around, run around...
Not: be treated like crap by a smart-ass teenager from the phone company telling us we asked for a long-distance plan last month when we haven't even called them in two years.
Not: getting shit on by our bosses for giving a customer what he rightfully deserved instead of what the company wants to give out.
Not pay half our hard-earned cash to the government and see it be wasted on giving it to their friends.
A German friend had an expression (in German) that sounded great, something along the lines of ''verfluchte scheize something something sheize something''... and it sort of meant ''fucking shit these fucking shitty fuckers have fucking shit for brains''.
That's us, as a species.
