Found this today on the interwebs and thought it was a pretty chilling image (hopefully not offending anyone or the U rating) just makes you think.

Obviously I'm not trying to scare monger, I'm sure similar images were made for MMO gaming and chat rooms and probably VHS and technology pre-dating that that people can take enjoyment from. Just makes you think.

The new opiate of the masses.

The orwellian thought police of the modern age would have a p*ss easy job in hunting down people they didn't like... just type something anti-establishment and end it with "like and share" #you'renickedsunshine et cetera.


The amazing thing is the seriousness that people endow the social media sites with, a "blocking" on there (because they talk bollox...) seen as a blood insult! Interesting one for some pshrinks to ponder over I suppose!

Scary thing is Orwell was only out by a decade or so on some of the predictions.
YC that one is starting to come true also

I heard some politician type on the radio this morning saying MI5 could have stopped the Woolwich murder if Nick Clegg had not stopped the communications bill AKA the snoopers charter.

Some still want big brother listening.

That's a great cartoon in the satirical old school style. A picture paints a thousand words and all that.

I approve now Shared on Facebook.

"In the process of"? how long does it take? I thought you just deleted it.

Or is it more like withdrawal, where you have to build yourself up to it, then wait for the cravings to subside?

He's in the process of asking his Facebook friends for advice on whether he should do it or not.
The vote is pretty much yes please delete delete delete but he has few more funny Cat pictures to look at first.

they put a hold on your account, if you hit delete but then log back in within 20 days or so, it forgets all about the delete and never speaks of it again. Bit evil in my opinion but I guess it has saved some people losing something important perhaps.

Modern Drugs:

Got an education when I thought I would check out a band that's playing Donnington (Download, you young cant's) this year on the Yow Tube.

Krokodil.

****in hell, you despair.


Sorry for going off at a tangent Mr B but you tend to post up some poignant prose on these type of things, so thread caught my non dilated eye. :)
