I'm back.

i know it seems like a serious hip-hop thing to just up and say i'm peace-ing only to come back to whatever it was i was quitting in the first place. Well i do happen to be an MC (seriously: http://www.myspace.com/rustydarts) so go fuck yourself. Uh! One.

Anyways, while performing moderately back-straining light labour this past evening, i came to a realization. Any time something is invented, that is an improvement of an existing product or idea, the original one should be eradicated immediately.

For instance, i give you the classic dustpan:




Invented in whatever-hundred-and-who-gives-a-fuck, everyone is familiar with the dustpan. Anyone who has swept up after themselves at any point in their life has likely utilized one to the exact and direct purpose for which it was created. Its a very handy everyday item that serves a purpose and serves it moderately well. The problem i have is that somebody decided to invent a re-imagined dustpan of the not-so-distant-future:



They put an elongated handle on the regular dustpan, thus eliminating possible strain on the spine that could eventually lead to serious back problems later on in life (especially if you're one of those weirdo clean-freaks who sweeps their house 800 times a day to keep their mind of their failing marriage and inability to connect with their own children).

The human species is shaping and hindering the evolution of ourselves by not embracing its fundamental rules of natural selection. If we were talking about nature here, the regular dustpan would have came first, and evolved (through a series of mutations, and over a period of time not easily imaginable) an elongated stick handle, that would be CHOSEN over its outdated rival, due to its ease of use and virtually eliminated physical strain. But this is human nature. Human nature's version of "natural selection" or "survival of the fittest" is ass backwards because most households today still use the original style dustpan, even though it is obviously inferior and bad for your health. In fact, i don't believe i can even recall a common household that featured a handled dustpan.

We need to start acting and believing in the laws of the universe and the world (and richard dawkins' snooty and long-winded tirades). If we help the things we create to evolve on a similar, albeit much more expeditious level, pretty soon we'll all have some awesome fucking stuff. But no, people continue to use the shitty dustpan.

In summation...

Old dustpan - back injuries, more work, less ability to sweep, suicide over not being able to support your clean-freak addiction.

New dustpan - more practical, easy on the spine, keeps your weirdo OCD intact.

This is just an example...
