I don't make judgements on whether a global phenomenon is "stupid" or not, because frankly I think doing so is stupid itself. If everybody goes in a stupid direction, you can pretend it doesn't matter, but you'll be wrong.
Just because it isn't important and profound to you personally doesn't mean it's stupid. Whatever you mean by that word anyway.

- darkerside 6y agoAs are you
