Master Pranks of the Subcontinent, Volume 2

Amazing pic. Cheers to the gumption of the pranksters, for this truly is a master prank - look at all the folks involved, and the timing, and obvious preparation. But jeers to such pranking - I hate pranksters! Think of the graduation ruined, the faculty furious, expulsions and firings and all kinds of cacophony. It's just not right - laughs at other's expense should never be. Respect, people: It's a two way street.

There's probably a formula which expresses the frequency and nature of pranking with the manner of the punishment, ergo, a society which allows pranking yet still metes out fair justice is a balanced, and healthy society. A society where pranking is out of control is chaos and disorder. A society that fears to prank fears for its life. Or is some boring Stepford world.

The Age of Propaganda



We've entered an ironic age - we have all these forms of media, for information, and yet a sizable percentage of the population believes in lies as facts instead of empirical truths. As long as the Other Tribe is for it, their against it, whatever it is.

Tribe over truth. It's very strange, and yet probably pervasive throughout history.

The difference today is the media, now used as sophisticated propaganda and marketing tools, worldwide. Their 24/7 influence can shape the opinions of many to such an extant that they will un/knowingly accept propaganda as fact, and any word otherwise, treason.

Crazy times.
Objectively a very interesting time to be alive - we're all very lucky.
Maybe.

Here he is, ladies. Beware, though, he's got a dagger on him, somewhere...

Also, too, remember this lady?
