Do You Have The Sickness?

February 7th 2008 02:32
AMERICA has the sickness, Europe and the Middle East have always had the sickness, England has succumbed, Australia's showing all the symptoms, the question is, will YOU be next? If you ask a humble idiot like me, I'd say you've already got it.
Yep, you have the sickness, and so does everyone around you.
Click onto www.dailytelegraph.com.au this morning and you'll see the sickness. They've published a photo of dead celeb Keith Ledger acting out a suicide fantasy from a sicko short film he made.
In this black-and-white monstrosity, you can clearly make out the sickness. The sickness is in the act, the sickness is also in publishing this ghoulish pic.

But scroll down and the sickness is there too.
A story about an Australian girl raped and murdered in India... There's a piece about a 15-year-old boy in Yankland who shot his whole family then spent the weekend with friends. The other day I read about a woman who, together with her daughters, is alleged to have murdered her father (their grandad), by clingwrap suffocating him ala Bad Boy Bubby style. Their motive, naturally enough, was said to be for financial gain.
This, people, is the sickness.
Sickness is a 16-year-old kid called Corey, who looks like one of Ronald McDonald's illegitimate offspring, lucking into celebrity and job offers via a well publicised disturbance of the peace. The sickness.
A bunch of psycho Jesus freaks in the US has started a website called Godhatesaustralia.com, all because the aforementioned Keith Ledger played a homosexual in a popular film.
Naturally, we should all die as a result, and these ersatz-Christians will be tub-thumping with glee. Oh, it's all so deserved.
But don't blame them... they, like everyone under the age of 120 has the sickness.

There is, of course, no cure.
