A cosmic, collective, runaway train of narcissism

A friend sent me this video clip. It's my favorite form of comedy: to wit, just a guy telling the truth. Because only the truth is funny.
Comedian Louis CK says -- more succinctly, more clearly, and way funnier -- the chief thing I'm been thinking about and writing about for the last ten years: "Everything is amazing right now ... and nobody is happy."
Enjoy. Laugh. Shake your head. Then tremble. Ours is culture of normalizing and even lauding cosmic, collective, runaway narcissism.

I'd love to know what you think.
