Not all gorillas wear plaque
- There is no reason for those who claim that we only value things when we lose them. Given that the seven days of containment by the COVID-19 virus are seven months and the solidarity that society has shown during this long week, I miss the moment when we thought the others were miserable and we could criticize each other.
We have had the same thing as the urbanized peoples: we have lost our identity. So because we don't know what to do to get the clock moving, I'm going to propose a hobby to reclaim our special charm. Let's leave your head empty and think that our behavior wasn't as obsessive as it was at the time. How could we imagine we would play in a one-week quarantine? Of course, it's allowed to think badly. There it is:
First day. The Government has declared a State of Emergency and has announced that it will order forced confinement immediately. People want to leave the house taking advantage of the last few hours of freedom to get drunk and burst. Among the population there are different species: irresponsible, which give in to their desire; cowards, which do not fulfill their desires because of the fear caused by the social pressure generated by moralists; and those moralists... Let them go to the devil!
Second day. It's the time to fill the bunker with products to survive comfortably during confinement, like an ant but at the last minute. Today supermarkets operate according to the law of the jungle and, in this ecosystem, the queen species is the most cowardly, the most devastating of the toilet paper. It should be mentioned that the careless disappeared suddenly, like a cigar.
On this second day we have to bring together as many things as possible and as many as possible. It doesn't matter if your bunker doesn't have the capacity to do it. The most important thing, besides saving yourself, is that if the moralists go from the habitat of the small traditional shops to the supermarket, they don't find anything. In addition, cowards have to be vicious in the coming days in order to enjoy the glotony and drunkenness that they were unable to enjoy yesterday for fear.
Third day. The virus has ended biodiversity. It is true that there are still a few moralists left, but the cowards have become arrogant. However, there are races among them: On the one hand, those who have a complex superiority and those who show the products hunted on the second day as a mouthpiece; on the other, those who, because of their complexity of inferiority, renounce their arrogant nature.
Beyond the risk of contagion, I found it too reactionary to criticize the lust for being a sin. So, I will use my own laziness as a sin, I will skip the lust and leave it for your imagination.
Yes, it’s true, maybe you’ve already realized that glotony and drunkenness, greed, pride… are three of the seven major sins. I confess that I am using an old and simple medium. But you will not tell me that it does not help to choose a sin every day, especially at a time when these seven days, which have been as long as seven months full of exemplary citizenship, have made it completely difficult to think again as before.
In any case, regardless of the risk of contagion, I found it too reactionary to criticize lust for being a sin. That is why I will use my own laziness as a sin, jumping the lust and leaving it for your imagination. So, as in the table game, we've reached the sixth day of goose.
Sixth day. It seems that there is no longer a race in the kind of arrogant, where the association of those who have a complex of laziness and inferiority has given rise to a new degree of evolution: the hypocrite. He has always been envious of the moralist, who has been negligent, cowardly and vain. Now, forced confinement gives him no choice but to act as if he were supportive and believed in his lie.
Seventh day. The hypocrite cannot be moralistic and endure silence, so he needs to do so by barking the four winds. Watching her behavior, more than one person infected by the coronavirus, the Will Smith Kondaira virus naiz (I'm a legend) looks like a being infected by the virus. With solidarity as an excuse, it does not allow the opportunity to rebuke everyone who passes through his window into a false and dangerous attitude. You don't mind asking for the reasons that have led you to go to the street, just think: “Who is now a moralist?”
