Friday Memes

“The Mandela Effect has been an Internet meme for almost a decade. It’s always been called that.” – The X-Files

According to National Geographic™, 80% of Americans can’t find Ukraine on a map.  They’re really ahead of the news!

Got in fairly late tonight, so it’s memes for dinner for everyone.  Back to original content on Monday – these memes are “as caught” in the wild.  I’ll note that on the podcast side, apparently, Neil Young didn’t like us making fun of him, so we had our first podcast pulled down.  I hope Neil Young will remember, this blogger don’t need him around, anyhow.  Since they pulled him from Spotify®, I hope he does okay.  I hear that he’s going to concentrate on MySpace™.

  1. After a good deal of thought, I believe that electronics will be the destruction of our civilization. There are a number of reasons why this will be, but basically we aren’t sufficiently evolved handle this level of distraction/ power concentration. TPTB will use it to our lasting detriment.

    1. HH-

      Recommended reading – “The Invisible Rainbow” by Arthur Firstenberg, MD, Ph.D. The correlations with disease & morbidity outbreak with the introduction of the telegraph, telephone, radar, microwave towers, cell phones, etc. is very well documented in this book.

      1. It’s amazing how much shorter life became after electricity was harnessed.
        There were no diseases, no children ever died, and most people lived to the age of 157 before 1830.

    2. Latrine detriment. FIFY. Maybe Ted Kasinsky was right.

      Can’t wait to read about bolton’s demise and arrival greeted by john mcshitstain.

    3. I was talking to my mom last night and she mentioned a quote attributed to Einstein: “It has become appallingly clear that our technology has surpassed our humanity.”

      How that could happen is addressed in a slim book written 75-odd years ago, The Abolition of Man.

      What may save us is three things: entropy, MPAI, and a merciful God.

    2. Ricky our final destination was described in the book of revelations to the Apostle John while in prison on the island of Patmos before he died. Take heart He has overcome the world.

  4. “How To Talk to Your Dog…”

    John, this is really helpful, as there’s a Maltipoo on its cover. I showed that to both of ours, and Poopette barked loudly that I either order one from Amazon™ or go to the library and check it out today.

    Then I realized that both are smarter than Anthony Blinken and Victoiria Nuland combined, as they both know how to read.

  5. Thanks are in order, JW, for not posting a meme with Neil Young’s fugly mug when you phoned this one in. If bad breath had a face, it would look like old Neil. Probably sing like him, too.

  7. I own and have read “How to teach quantum physics to your dog” and “How to teach relativity to your dog,” by Chad Orzel. They’re both really good introductory texts.
