Louis C.K. on Conan O’brien, talking about the spoiled generation of today. He made his point clear, everything is amazing today and nobody is happy. If you don’t know how to read engineer’s mind, here you go. Also he talked about how the guy next to him freaked out when the internet was down on his flight. But later he admitted that it was him only.

Yes, people bitch over trivial things, but those cell phones require titanium, usualy from Bolivia, where the miner’s labor under awful conditions and the mine tailings pollute the ground water, and the mines consume so much water in operations, the water table it dropping fast. Those planes spew greenhouse gasses. The plane seats are crammed into the sapce to increase proftis and aging tall people (like 6’4″ me) are at risk of venous thrombi when legs are jammed into the back seat (I almost never fly now).
So, yes, enjoy the “amazing” thngs we have today, but look at the side-effects. Aren’t cars wonderful? Yet, isn’t the Gulf oil spill another side effect of how companies, in pursuit of the profits for these amazing technologies, deceive themselves that all is OK in the face of the warning signs? And isn’t that we we do too in not demanding climate legislation with real teeth?
Perhaps nobody is happy” because subconciously we really know that we are living beyond our global means, the piper must eventually be paid and it worries us deep down inside.
Scott tall people on average make more money and are more likely to be CEO’s so make something of yourself and become somebody. Maybe then you can change the world to be the person you want to be.
