Road Dog Poop

It's simple really.   We need to reintroduce the word "vulgar" to our language.  

Somewhere along the road we lost the common decency associated with humanity.  We're becoming nasty, and enjoying it less. 

North Korea's Clown With a Crown.   He's vulgar on so many levels, beyond his haircut.   Politics, in general.  Vulgar on so many levels.  You get the drift.   

F-bombs and sexual innuendo are acceptable forms of speech.   We have laws about domestic violence, sexual harassment, and all of those things, but they're always on the news.  

Hmmm.   Maybe there's something there.   Good ol' television is most often cited as the root of all evil in our world, the scapegoat for bad taste, inane behavior, and biased presentations.   But really?    Maybe it is.  

The news (?) shows are ratings driven, not news driven, and thus focus on the outlandish.  Doom 'n gloom.   Slash n' dash.   Rumor trumps fact.  

Beyond the news, I stepped in it when I was stumbled into watching a rerun of "Will and Grace".    That was pretty cutting edge, controversial stuff when it came out.   But now?   It wouldn't even gain a PG rating for most of its episodes.    And that wasn't that long ago. 

I stepped in it when I actually watched Two and a Half Men.   That show (and others) are stupid and vulgar portrayed as funny.  

I step around it by not watching, "The Real ____ of anything".   Those aren't funny, they're stupid and vulgar.   Those two adjectives are anything but funny. 

Vulgar.   You never hear the word anymore.   You just see it... everywhere. 

Signs of the Apocalypse.  

You think I'm kidding?   The physical world may not be warming, but the mental world is well on its way.
