WTF is wrong with the world?

[Good morning blues]

Oh hey big surprise, a christmas eve newscast is talking about a young family getting their presents stolen. All they need is a story about an attractive young person with a serious disease getting lots of love and support from the community and another young family suffering after a house fire and the christmas eve news script template will be full.

Because the fact that three little kids aren't having Christmas isn't bad at all.

Compared to real issues like HIV, child-soldiers, famine and so on and so on?
Not really, no.

I was expecting something more important than "some presents were stolen" with a thread-title like this.

It's always been wrong and it will always be wrong. It's just now that there are people to notice just HOW wrong everything is. (They cause quite a bit of it as well.)

I was too. But you don't always get what you expect...

Just because something else is worse doesn't mean there's nothing wrong with it.

 

[Wadders]

Reality TV is what's wrong. That's when the decline started.

I dunno if you're joking or not, but either way, I have to agree...

But yeah, life can be cruel

It's still bad, sure; I didn't mean there's nothing wrong with it, I just consider it laughable to get so upset about something so small.

There's children on the street using guns and knives
Taking drugs and each other's lives
Killing each other with knives and forks
Calling each other names like 'dork'

Do I even have to ask you guys what that's from?

Flight of the Concordes, right?

Damn, I love that show.

[JoeKickAzz]

Hitler, Satan, Smokers, and Smoking Businesses thats what is wrong with the world

 

[ctrl-alt-postal]

Well, if all we had to worry about was the occasional theft at christmas, the world would be f'ing roses.

 

[Mcface]

Would it be wrong of me to put claymores in my yard?

 

[Littlee300]

Just an excuse not to get kids presents

 

[TheSeventhLoneWolf]

I had everything stolen from me after my 13th christmas. There's nothing wrong with the world. Just some people.

 

[Jammerz]

The Spanish Inquisition with Pirates, that's what is wrong with this world, that and FRANCE!

There's people on the streets getting diseases from monkeys.
YEAH THATS RIGHT I said they're getting diseases from monkeys.
Why's this happening who has been touching these monkeys?

 

[Thaius]

Well many religions actually have pretty good explanations for that, but in our post-modern world they are all rejected in favor of "evil doesn't exist, truth and morality are subjective." Epic fail.

 

[Supreme Unleaded]

Humanity, that's whats wrong.

Yea, that pretty much sums it up. not much else you can really say except maybe
/thread

Thirded, there may be a good bunch of fellows out there but the shere number of douchebags drahs humanity down into a piece of shit.

 

[Lord Monocle Von Banworthy]

This whole "wrong" thing carries with it the assumption that there is a way things are "supposed" to be. The problem is that when anybody starts articulating his or her vision of how safe and fair and empowering the world is supposed to be, it becomes quickly apparent that there never was a time like that.

So there's nothing "wrong" with the world. Your preconceptions have no basis in reality. If you see something you don't like, a more useful thing to do than complaining, "What's wrong with the world?!?!?!" might be to say, "How can I improve this situation?" An answer to the second question is going to be more useful than an answer to the first.
