                                       Modern Metaphor
                                       by Speed Devil Show


 Think about it, if the Nerd Wide Web was an ordinary public library...


 ... it would be impossible to get inside, as the whole place would be
 filled to the limit with idiots.

 ... people would boast about their library cards, constantly informing
 their friends that they 'have library'.

 ... the cafeteria would be crowded with blind people desperately trying to
 pick each other up, while secretly masturbating.

 ... the coolest profession would not be to actually write books, merely to
 design their covers.

 ... the populace would not take any interest in the available info, just
 wander around aimlessly and glance at the book's covers and references.

 ... the police together with old folks would happily burn books they found
 to be 'indecent' in the 'general interest of the masses'.

 ... 0.1 % of the shelves would be serious literature on science, history
 and fiction; 99.9 % would be dedicated to various forms of sex.

 ... pimpled kids would run around and vandalise certain books, falsely
 believing that they are 'real hackers'.

 ... the librarians would make loads of money, while the caretakers all
 died of heart attacks due to excessive work.

 ... one would have to get down to the basement, go under ground, to find
 anything of interest.
