One (last) Degree to South Park

The Idiocracy has its own 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon - it's the one degree to South Park game.  Every topic of any consequence or gravity boiled down to a crass South Park episode.  All of history reduced to a cartoon and spoon fed to the Idiocracy so they know their exact glib lines when someone inconveniently changes the subject to reality.  Irrefutable proof of the nihilism and cynicism pervasive in this transitory and totally fucked up age.  The Unbearable (and yet all-too-fleeting) Lightness of Being for a generation of spoiled Westerners who desperately assume others in the Third World can die needlessly every day by the thousands for a want of a few dollars of food or medicine, but it can't happen here.

A massive Tsunami looms on the horizon, bearing down relentlessly.  A few lonely discarded voices warn from the high ground - we lonely and pathetic cassandras and pessimists, buzz-kills, really.  

See the beach dwellers -  fully ensconced, like shiny beached whales, sur la plage.  What is that in the distance anyway?  Is that a massive wave?  "...let's surf - I'm not afraid to surf this place - we'll surf this whole fucking place !" 

Occupy Wall Street?  What do those loser bums want anyway?  Fuck all of them.  Don't they know there is a new episode of Dancing with the Lost Star of the Modern American Breaking Bad Family Idol?  

I am sure those doughnut plugged 50-something cops getting-ready-to-retire will take care of those hippies and their PTSD soldier buddies.  What?  Another 50,000 20-somethings coming back from Iraq ?  Time to dial up a new war up in here.
