The Land of Lip Service

Either a searing indictment of contemporary American society or just a bit of fun! They seem to have forgotten common courtesy, 'Have A Nice Day!' rings so hollow, it's a shame; they're so mired in mediocrity and no one ever, ever takes the blame. Overweight, yet under-nourished, over-sexed and under-intellectual, they preen and pose their way to self-importance, perpetually ineffectual. They clutch desperately on to their perceptions, their DVD's and plasma TV screens; they're rushing blindly to the brink of self-destruction, never caring for a moment what life means. So I'll have a cup of tea and read Jane Austen, self-righteous, showing smug English reserve, and laugh at all their cheesy indiscretions while I cheer their unimaginable nerve!
