The Story of Stuff
Filed under: Vexed - July 6, 2008 @ 6:00 amOK so here I am getting ready to review sex toys, and am obsessed with sock monkeys and Pez dispensers and all KINDS of useless crap, but I think we should kick off the “It’s Broken” theme week with a 20 minute video on The Story of Stuff. Notice how Annie Leonard acts like she is talking to a bunch of children. It’s like Blue’s Clues for the masses. Hopefully, we get a clue.
Stay tuned in the upcoming week for stories about broken dicks, pussies, hearts, and more. Groove off of other people’s pain. Do you know the fancy word for that, boys and girls? Schadenfreude.

I love that video, so concise and to the point, and pretty much sums up the WHOLE problem………..
You know what else i’d love to see is where all our poop goes. we flush trillions of gallons of poop and pee down the drain, but we don’t have a clue about how imbalanced the disposal methods are. Then we drink it again, Mmmm, yummy….

OMIGOSH I’m going to write about the book “Poop Culture” soon! You can borrow it if you want. I’d love to tour landfills and sewer plants and recycling centers and slaughterhouses, see it all for myself instead of doing what most people do and think it’s all MAGIC!
