tell me something I don’t know

My grandad said “It’s really humid today isn’t it?”

I said “Tell me something I don’t know!”

He said “Err… Ok… I can fit my whole fist up yer gran’s arse”

It’s the world we live in. It’s very much intentionally designed to make you complacent.

This is such a strange reality to live in. All of the futuristic, dystopian fiction I have consumed has the same premise that people living in the dystopia know it and know it’s bad. Somehow reality is worse.
