Notes from the Decline of Western Civilization
Today as I was walking to the train from the gym I observed a saw a man dig a bottle of Johnnie Walker out of a trash can, attempt to suck out the scant remaining contents, and throw it back in the trash.
I was also stopped by three otherwise-normal looking individuals who were desperately, desperately searching for The Cheesecake Factory.
And to top it all off, I heard the Jessica Simpson cover of "O Holy Night."
None of this bodes especially well for America, I'm afraid.
