"I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore! I'm mad as hell and I'm simply not going to take it anymore! I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore!" The screaming mantra from the iconic film "Network" was the harbinger for the modern age.
We now routinely utter those words -- not just about television programming, but everything: politics, religion, stupid government officials, stupid religious officials, people in authority anywhere, teachers, ministers, friends, lovers, children, parents, siblings, all stupid people, selfish people, bartenders, waitresses, etc. etc. etc. The list is the list of everything and everybody!
Everything and everybody makes us "mad" -- and we can't do anything about it, which makes us "madder still." Could all this anger possible motivate each of us, as a kind of individual protest, to try to be the outlier, the difference-maker, the odd-guy-out, who could begin the process of changing the entire system? Is that possible? I'll do my part if you will!!!
