I'm really sick of it. Day after day, we're inundated with it: products, shows, movies, music. All of it claiming to be more extreme or adventurous then the product before it.

Well, I’m here to let the world in on a little secret. Your tortilla chips, regardless of the amount of fake cheese added… are not extreme. Nor will they aid you in becoming extreme, unless you mean extremely fat. Your SUV will probably not help you in being extreme because there is a 99% chance you’ll never take it off the asphalt. Your health insurance, never extreme. In fact, by definition, it’s the opposite of extreme. It’s cautious. Your hair gel. Not extreme. The TV show ‘Lost’? Not extreme. Mission Impossible 3? Not extreme.

Simply put, I’m tired of everything and its great aunt Fanny trying to sell me on the idea that their thing will somehow spice up my life and make it EXTREME!!!! Those product will not somehow magically alter my life, or the life of anyone else and make them into a cliff climbing, alpine skiing, skydiver. Sorry to burst your bubble of mediocrity.
