(if you figure it out, let me know!) now, on to the subject matter! while at this rave, my friends and i rather quickly decided that the volume was unreasonably loud! this was not a surprise, given the environment! unfortunately, the first two of the three acts were just terrible! but the experience led us to realize that humans, as they exist today, are inadequate! in order to take the human body to the next level, it is necessary for humans to develop ear-flaps, such that the human ear can be opened and closed at will, just like eyes! imagine that! shutting someone out would no longer require elaborate, self-developed defense mechanisms such as self-oppression and tuning-out! in the future, it would only require a flap-o-skin with muscles! therefore, maybe my descendents who go to raves a thousand years from now (that is, if the dipshit human race is able to sustain planet earth as a viable ecosystem) can shut both their eyes and ears upon submission to extreme sights and sounds which today's raves are known for! getting more to the point, it is my contention that the insertion of various probing objects into the ear (such as q-tips) has put excess and unnecessary pressure on the particular areas of the human body, out of which, in an ideal evolutionary situation, would sprout up and develop into ear-flaps! so, as much as i love cotton, these little dual-ended cotton balls on a stick must cease to exist! i ask you, dear friends who support human evolution, to please stop inserting q-tips in your ears! over time, as the ear is continually exposed to loud noises such as the subway, the jet airplane, the garbage truck, the heavy machinery, the jack-hammer, the coffee bean grinder, the loud-speaker, the rock concert, the techno-rave, the incessant conversationalist, the tractor-pull, the telephone, the crying baby, the sound of breaking glass, the political protest, the holiday parade, rush-hour traffic, and global thermonuclear war, the human ear will naturally develop an ear-flap to protect itself! animals (such as humans (yes humans are actually animals)) have a natural tendency .. an instinct, if you will! ...to develop these proper defense mechanisms over time, given the correct circumstances! but our rampant consumerism and our demand for products that make our lives easier has resulted in the q-tip, a bona fide evolution-killer! my friends! if you are one of those online-internet-gaga-dot-com investor types, you better sell all your stock in companies that sell ear plugs! nobody makes money from eye-plugs these days, now, do they! well, i'm showing you the future! and smart investors understand the future! by the way, while i'm complaining, who the fuck is the genius that invented the "low-fat latte"! i mean, what the hell is going on there! is this another award-winning corporate contribution from the pathetic metropolitan region of seattle! i am fed up with seattle! i hope you have enjoyed this knowledge-sharing! please do what you can on a regular basis to further the evolution of the human race! that which does not evolve, does not survive! love, clyde [--------------------------------------------------------------------------] [ (c) !LA HOE REVOLUCION PRESS!
