Will the Party Soon Be Over?
Man doing strange stuff
After rolling my head on the pillow for good, I thought of writing about the crazy stuff that surrounds us. Yeah, the kind of thing that reflects irrational human behavior—a pattern of late that comes in the form of a “breaking news” in the media to further portray the perverse world. For sure, some people deliberately want or have already turned the world upside down. When you think of the “fake news” (Courtesy of our own President Trump), the deceptive pastors, sham preachers, fake Jesus, counterfeit people, false hope, artificial world, false peace, bogus leaders, fake this and fake that. Add to this list: haters and their hate speech, crazy people around the planet who are ready to maim, kill, and commit all sorts of atrocities; it’s a paradigm of a mutually exclusive recipe for a complete disaster. The dastard act committed by these set people presents a scenario of confusion everywhere. You will now agree with me that in this dark world, things have not only gone bad but really crazy.
Funny dancing!
Wago stuff
Political Correctness or Incorrectness
This crazy stuff sometimes, at first sight, is so superficial and cannot be easily perceived for reporting, or worth a written article. To bring such to the public domain, one has to sweat it out or embark on some serious hard work. Another time we just have to be more observant of the happenings around us or simply put, do some brainstorming before getting the real gist for consumption. To be precise, the common denominator does not only end with the fake this, fake that as mentioned above. But it is compounded by the political correctness or incorrectness that has invaded our social space. Except one is totally absent-minded (of course, highly recommended if it was possible to avoid health breakdown). Otherwise, if one has to take everything to heart in this crazy environment, one may end up in the hospital and got to spend a fortune, considering our disarray health system.
The real crazy stuff!
Guys go rough
Artistic work of lunacy
Is the Party really Over?
Or how on earth someone could end up being beaten for not able to distinguish that the person he was addressing wasn’t a woman but a “man”? Want to refer to this as political correctness? Oh, boy! That experience left many people, including me thinking of what type of world we are in today. Is this not the same human race about whom I learned in my youth days that man is born of a woman and made a man and a woman? Humans’ race today is everything unthinkable. Robots will soon be included in the club. They may likely have all human features and mannerisms hard to differentiate them from real humans (new race, about the End Time?!)
And how much more will we have to see with our naked eyes before our maker sounds the final roll call for us to go Home? After all, our time on earth is limited. Like it or not, either the cosmos bell rings on each one’s ear, or a silent voice like COVID-19 will whistle something like, the Party is over. Did I just say our time on earth is limited? That must be a slip of the tongue. If not, why then the gentleman doctor told the whole world that he has discovered the know-how of waking up the dead? Of course, the “Lazarus” method! Or has he forgotten that that was the main reason why God threw Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden so that they will not discover the Tree of Life and live forever? Honestly, my heart beats faster these days than never before. Yes, it does beat more when I remember how our African dictators may want to live forever! I pray against such an experiment’s success because I believe that these dictators’ demise might mean total freedom and the oppressed’s resurrection. And I know that this can only occur if their cohorts in the West would let it be.
Not Even Modern Languages Are Free from What contribute to Our Headache
Languages are not left out of this imbroglio. Thanks to AI (Artificial Intelligence), a translator helps us for fast translation on the one hand—a blessing— on the other—(a curse—! As AI robs humans of their jobs. The usage of words has been problematic long ago, and in some instances, dangerous to interpreters and translators when carrying out the jobs, they love to do. More so, when it crosses the safety boundary and becomes a headache if not managed or handled carefully. Otherwise, why should a word like fatal considered reasonable and commonplace in the Spanish Language but deadly in English, meaning mortal, fatality, death, etc.? No wonder translators and interpreters did not only go to jail in the Bible days but were cruelly executed! Remember the tragic death of William Tyndale, the British Biblical translator, and the French humanist Etienne Dolet?
Again a word like “Molestar,” a commonplace word in the Spanish Language, but in English, it becomes a troublesome word (to molest)! How many great men have not fallen because of the word “molested”? While I am not trying to shield the men because many of us are damned weak and sometimes too callous to meet our urge for sex. But women, you’re our mothers, our sisters, our best friends. Do you know that without you, the world would have been a dull and miserable place to be for men? Some women wait for decades or more before accusing the victim. And just at the nick of time when the man aspires to hold a higher office in the land, bang! He’s charged by their would-be victims. And this mostly happens when they see the man is trying to climb the leather of a better life; that’s when they feel it fit to throw in the long waiting hook of revenge. Bang! They go after such men alleging being “molested” (a term considered a high crime, mostly here in the US). Groping in many countries is never considered a big deal, not here in the US. You, as a man, that can earn you a good embarrassing prison term. An act that is sometimes overlooked in many countries, especially if it’s consented. The list is very long; one can go on and on, crazy stuff indeed!
