    Ah I love Snow Crash.

    We’re already at the point of bizarre self-parody, cringe-irony, ultra-capitalism, but instead of pizza delivering street-samurai and a fascinating metaverse…

    …we got grub/dash/food/rabbit/whatever and…“meta.” Ugh.

    I hate so much that Idiocracy was so on the mark. Knowledge being lost, culture being 100% based on consumption, corporate warmonger leadership. The entertainment is basically there if you look at YouTube’s front page it’s like:

    "OW! MuH bAwLz! (For $48,000,000?!?!?!) - 2 hrs. ago | 3 million views"

    "Slappin buttz n’ moar munee - UpGrAyD (ft. GoonOhioSkebedeezyFR) - 1 day ago | 7.5 million views"
