Entry: Shoe Event Horizon. Jun 7, 2004



Imagine. A city somewhere in the United States. This city, like most cities, is perfectly normal. Compare it to Chicago, though it is not Chicago. There is one little detail, however, that makes this city slightly different than other cities. This detail is the fact that there are a few too many shoe shops. While touring this city, people often sub-conciously register the fact that there are too many shoe shops.

Now, in order to produce more shoes, more shoe shops are required. However, with every shoe shop that is built, the quality of the shoes degrade a little bit. So, more and more shoe shops are built, and the quality of the shoes gets worse and worse, forcing more people to buy more pairs of shoes.

This entire situation finally climaxes in what is dubbed the Shoe Event Horizon, after which it is no longer economically possible to build anything but shoe shops. The result is crime, famine, disease, utter destruction of millions of people.

Don't let this happen to your city.

This is the sort of thing that extremely bored minds come up with. This rant was written with the help of approximately eighty chorus's of "Bananaphone!"

Don't be an extremely bored person.
