It's that time of year again, the HORROR. They're back. Like vultures they circle around us, patiently waiting, watching every move until... we make a mistake. Then they STRIKE. Merciless and without pity. Cornering all the poor souls that ends up in their sight. Eyes filled with hunger and greed eying in on you. Screaming in squeaky, nasal voices. They attack in flocks, two or three at a time, sometimes some lonely alpha male/female proving its might over the other groups. All with the same dedication to the group:
"Do you want to buy a Majblomma?"
Oh the horrors, the horror!... What do you mean it's just children? They are animals taking a bite on your leg and don't let go until you fight it of, give up or it loose interest and believe me, they don't! For a god cause? Tell me about it! You pay 10 SEK (ca $1,4=€1) for a thing that cost 16 öre (ca 2 American cent = 1,6 European cent) to make, handmade by children in a Chinese factory were they earn 1000 SEK/MONTH (roughly $143=€100) and only meet their family ONCE a year. What do you mean I'm a hypocrite? I'm cheap? Yeah, probably and I would probably not bought one anyway.
Yes, I know, I'm a really big cynical bastard. And I don't have a reason for being that. Most things float on like normal, I haven't seen human evil up close or something horrible more then what I read, see on TV or experience in video games. Of course that's probably enough as it is, but I personally have never experienced it. It has never effected me and that probably makes me more lucky then most, don't you think?
