Does Not Seem

At last! We can finally pretend it never happened!

WASHINGTON — The government is expected to announce on Wednesday that three-quarters of the oil from the Deepwater Horizon leak has already evaporated, dispersed, been captured or otherwise eliminated — and that much of the rest is so diluted that it does not seem to pose much additional risk of harm.

Does not seem. If that's not just massively reassuring I don't know what is! What could be more exciting than seeming to not seem? Only one step further into the gray - NOT seeming to seem!
I'm such a pushover for subtleties when it comes to persuasion. It's time to party again in the Gulf!

A big relirf, and I thought we we're all doomed. I should really stop thinking for my self, subscribe to the status quo, and stop overthinking the truth of mass media.

Sometimes im just too much with all theses fantasies I have about truth, reality, and other nonsense of the sort. They sell opium at wallmart, thats just fine with me - I just want my discount like everyone else.

All I want is whats coming to me. All I want s my fair share.

They spare us euphemism - maybe because they've studied how fucking dumb we are & don't see any need to bother - so maybe we should be grateful.

I think we should hold a contest for the best trademark name for walmart brand opium when it finally becomes available.
It may be our last recourse towards a fair share.
