The One-Quarter Chatter

 One of the odd 'add-on's' that you get with Netflix and the various streaming video platforms now....is 'speed-handling'.  This means if you want to run the video at a slightly faster speed, or much slower speed....you can.

So in the past year, folks have began to notice various 'experts' appearing who view a 3-minute clip at one-quarter speed, and then providing 12-minute presentation where they talk about all the secret things in this 3-minute clip.

As you begin to review these....you come to realize that production teams are putting in tremendous amounts of time to hide things in the clip.....making you the viewer get more intense over the story, or the video.  

Adding to the production time and story?  

Well, you could now have a two-hour Marvel movie where sixty hidden things are in the background....that you'd normally never notice.

It means you have to sit there after watching the two hours.....putting in another four extra hours....grasping these hidden story pieces.  On top of that, you need a $1,200 special giant-screen TV to see the clips at one-quarter speed. 

I recently watched Netflix's Army of the Dead, and there is some moment about halfway through the movie (on zombies') where I suddenly realize that there is a time-loop suggested in the story, and a couple of moments where you realize it's intentional for you to believe that.  The potential that three different additional movies might be made over the one single Army of the Dead?  I'd go and suggest that.

What's the Chief Problem of Society Today?

 Self-righteousness and lack of tolerance.  

It's a skill-set that people had upon coming out of school prior to the 1990s.  

You learned to be marginally tolerant of people and just nod your head.  As stupid or crazy as the person might have been.....you had to work with them or socialize with them in various ways.  

You learned to avoid the holier-than-thou behavior, and quietly hide your moral superiority.  

You learned to be hypocritical of people....but just not say that to their face.

You learned that no one was perfect.  

Where did these skill-sets go?  Unknown.  They literally disappeared overnight, and I would suggest the bulk of the nation are wandering around in a daze....unable to confront reality.
