A close analysis of news, current affairs, politics and social trends..... This is the world as you've never known it...Want to wake up with the Critic ?

Karma Karma Karma Karma.... Karma Chameleon?

Boy George was right. Although reports say he is cleaning the streets of New York (citation needed), there seems to be truth in his all-time classic "Karma Chameleon". The first man to dress funky and turn it to profit. A reliable source.

Boy George _ before and after
Written by Boy George, performed by Culture Club (his band), the cross-dressing drug addict sang some telling lines:


"Karma Karma Karma (fast forward a few seconds)

... You come and go-oh-ooohh ! You coome and go "

Absolutely.

Mr. George - do you run Orble? How on earth do you make your Karma stay ? It seems futile - you can post, comment, vote and yarn all you like and still drop from a perfect 10 to a 9. Maybe Culture Club can tell us a bit more.. come on, George...

" When we cling our love is strong // When you go you're gone forever // You string along

// You string along "

What is this ?!?! Did you do this Orble ?! DID YOU DO THIS ?! It's like listening to the audiobook of Orble's Paid Writing Guide - bestowed on, and never read by, young, aspiring bloggers ! Wait.. wait.. WAIT !! I think there's more...

Im a man without conviction
Im a man who doesnt know
How to sell a contradication

Could.. could it... could this be the key to successfull blogging ?! I think he's trying to tell me.. to warn?.. no.. no.... he wants.... DAMMIT ! I lost him... Where the hell is that woman off Medium when you need her ?

Hello Anthony B...

Mr. George - do you run Orble? How on earth do you make your Karma stay ? It seems futile - you can post, comment, vote and yarn all you like and still drop from a perfect 10 to a 9.

Either this is coincidence or I've just been whipped.
I had posted this question, under this title, on the Writer's Forum earlier, out of curiosity...

Im a man without conviction
Im a man who doesnt know
How to sell a contradication

Hmmm...as Alice would say...curiouser and curiouser.
Is this part of your social critique jurisdiction?

Howdy Dusk

I don't know how I came up with this... I was in a massive rush to post something before a mate's BBQ and this song has been stuck in my head for days now.

Sorry, I had no idea you came up with it first. Full credit to you, it was a brilliant idea ! I'll have to check that post out.

Hehe, a lot of my post kind of transcend what my blog is meant to be. i don't even like current affairs, so I don't know why I decided to blog about it. But I suppose Social Critic is all in the interpretation..

Thanks Dusk, and sorry for inadvertently stealing your idea !

Hello Anthony B....

No this wasn't about
inadvertently stealing your idea

Ideas are free.
Like speech.
Supposedly.

Don't like Current Affairs huh?
...not what your words imply on David's MO site. Great tabloid journalism.

Have a social and hopefully non critical day.

Thank you - I do try to keep my life social. I do need to stay less critical though... Hmmm...

I try keep up to date with the news, but it's soo boring. Just like politics. But I can't help feeling passionate about that sort of stuff. It's disgusting, but so alluring !

I'm a riddle wrapped in an engima on a website marked Social Critic.

Thanks for posting Devi !!

- Anthony
