The world hasn't gone mad .... it's always been mad. We're just noticing it more these days.

It definitely cycles more mad and less mad.

My theory is that every hundred years or so there is a major war that fucks up everybody's lives. Then people think "hm, let's not do that again". Then it takes a few generations for it to fade from living memory and then the bullshit starts again.

Shut up with your reasonableness; I'm trying to be pithy over here!

I fondly remember the simpler times, with the cold war and threat of nuclear annihilation every day. Oh, Chernobyl was also a blast. The Gulf War made for great entertainment too.

Yes, absolutely.
