And this is how far we’ve evolved?

dickViagra spam.  We’ve all had it.  (Haven’t we?!?!).  It comes in all shapes and sizes: there’s the text-only, ‘appeal to your sense of masculinity’ kind.  There’s the ‘picture of the yummy pills’ kind.  And now this.  An appealing ‘before and after’ dong picture.

So here we are, 500 years after the coronation of Henry VIII.  In that time, we’ve mastered trans-oceanic navigation, created the industrial revolution, risen into the air, sent men to the moon and invented the digital computer. All for what?

So that our economies can fall apart because we’re all too greedy to stop consuming and too technologically rapt to stop ruining the environment?  And because – if the explosion of spam of all kinds is any kind of mirror – too guided by our dicks to evolve beyond the blood-thirstiness of the 16th century.

Ah well.
