I have a strange dichotomy in my mind. The world is much too safe, and the world is much too insane.
Safety: As a kid, I would go to a gymnastics gym, and do what ever I wanted. They had Olympic style trampolines and all. It was so much fun. As I grew older, the place got new management, and safety became paramount, and I find it lost it's glow because of this. Kids were being "proper".
Insanity: As I go to work in downtown Vancouver, I watch people smoke meth, and OD on opiods _everyday_. I find the mean(insanityInYear2000) < mean(insanityNow). Does anyone else have this experience?
- jtbayly 3y agoI propose a theory by which insanity increases to the same degree that the nanny state introduces new safety laws, driving down gun and minor insanity. The only outlet is extreme insanity, and only those willing to break the rules will do it. But more people are willing to break the rules because more people are just plain sick of all the rules.
