CHAPTER 20
MINI GOLF ANYONE ?
How to Handle earthquakes in your brain
I understand the need forâor I should say the human propensity for entertainment distraction. I mean, who doesnât want a break from all this shit now and again, right?
But, what I find puzzling is the need for distraction while you are being distracted. And of course, there can even be a third layer to this insanity if you involve your phone.
Take for instance The Outer Banks National Seashore. Itâs littered with half a dozen or so tacky, wildly-themed mini golf courses. Iâm talking life-size volcanoes and pirate ships and some of the butt-fucking ugliest Tyrannosaurus Rexes youâll ever lay eyes upon.
We need all this stuff because, well, going to the beach and enjoying the surf and sunset just isnât good enough, is it? Nopeâ we gotta add popping small white balls with long metal sticks into the mouths (or anuses) of fake dinosaurs to the list. And of course while weâre doing this, we can use our phones to order pizza and ice-cream for deliveryâI shit you notâto the fucking mini golf course!
Is it any wonder human beings are so spiritually bereft and unaware? With distraction friends like these, who in the fuck needs enemies?
Of course, there is also the indisputable, undeniable and somewhat uncomfortable truth that the darkly humorous entertaining content of this very paragraph is also a distraction.
But I digress.
