Top 100 ways to Continue Fucking the Future
Apologies apologies - New Years got the best of us and no one at the office here had the motivation to lift a finger towards the remote nevermind the computer. Therefor we didn’t blog for two days but the good news is that google analytics tells us that no one really cared!
From now on we promise to continue delivering on a MWF basis - that being said I would like to discuss my newest invention, a book…
I’ve been thinking - everyone and their brother has written a book like the “Top 10 ways to Green your home” or “101 ways to green your business.”
Well its time to write something that will catch readers attention. I am set on a mission to write a book called Top 100 ways to Continue Fucking the Future. It will be an omen of sorts that will easily list everything we currently do on a daily basis and why its bad for the environment or has negative social impacts, etc.
What do you think? I think it might catch on - The title will certainly grad one’s attention.
We could start with things like what my friends roomate used to do - Take an hour long shower
In fact that’s where we will start
1. Take an hour long shower
2. Drive that Hummer to the corner store because its raining
3. Drive to work by yourself
4. Buy that quintessential suburban house
5. Buy factory farmed meat from the WalMart
6. Step foot in WalMart
7. Buy bottled water
8. Continue throwing out those plastic bottles
9. Leave those lights on at the house for safety
10. Leave the water running while you brush your teeth
What do you think - took me about two minutes to compile those. I guess the point would be that its a new year and we have the potential with a new breath of life into this country to really change the way we operate. If you care you will get upset when that roomate takes an hour long shower and you will yell at your girlfriend when she leaves the water running when she brushes her teeth and you will tell your friends to buy a nalgene and actually use it and you will absolutely under no circumstances step foot in WalMart. Try it - it will be cool and the results will astound you.
Happy New Year and best of luck in 2009!

Sounds like my kind of list! The title is funny enough to attract those who love alternative culture but don’t realize yet that it’s bad to leave water running–most definitely a big target audience. Those with nothing but Walmart within a 90 mile radius…should move…and also won’t find this funny. I think it’d be a good slap in the face for this society, which has only been gently nudged so far.

Love it, although the title may not play in prime time. My biggest fear is that some people will read it and never get that there is anything wrong with their behavior.
