Begin Transmission

That's it, let it all out. Let the waterworks flow, get it out of your system. Are you finished? Now we can begin. If I divide by zero does the universe implode? If I drain these walls of years of insane banter what then will make me worse? Is there a whole totality to all of this? Humanity, in its quest to reach its peak, has created several ways to destroy itself and oftentimes congratulates itself for it. First we destroy our houses, then our schools, our jobs and when we have destroyed everything in our path, we destroy our spirits. We destroy each other in so many ways, some like a saccharine tasting wine while some, a brutal yet intense connection. And of course being the theatrical beings that we are, let everything build up while our eyes are closed. We let ourselves get comfortable in our own skin first. And once everything has settled and the guarding eye becomes complacent, we destroy ourselves with one fell swoop. We cut off each others wings and laugh at each others bloody backs, all of us smiling as we do. We spray each others eyes with acid and push ourselves into brick walls. We smash our own faces, whether we do it ourselves or with a little help from others. We destroy that we detest, and become monsters ourselves in the process. Look. An airplane you're flying on's right engine has burst into flames. a quick gust of wind slaps your face, and all you see are bits and pieces of what used to be the airplane's interior flying in front of you. People are being sucked into what seems like a hole in the wall. You see the expressions on their faces and hear their screams as they soar through the air. You notice a relative hanging onto your seat, with his or her weight slowly pulling your seat into the rip in the airplane. All this in under five seconds. What do you do?

Saddam Hussein is a real life Dr. Doom

Just as the emerald clad villain ruled over Latveria, as did Hussein with Iraq. Now, these self-styled "protectors of truth and justice" have executed him, and Iraq is in a state of confusion. If it was a hellhole before, it should be bedlam by now thanks to our mighty heroes.

It should, but isn't.

You're hungry and probably without a roof to stand under, and there are assholes with guns who get rations. Iraq may have lost a heartless dictator, but the world also lost a brilliant tactician and strategist. He has did what every other world leader during his time could only could dream they could do, literally have your own country.

A toast to "Dr. Doom," may he always remind us of how evil each and every one of us could become.
