During this reading I found myself getting distracted quite easily, it switched around too much to really get my attention. It went into so much detail about what is real or what is said so be real, but really isn't. It was a hard read to follow, I had to read allowed to try and grasp what the heck this guy was trying to achieve by his writing.
I didn't completely agree with this article, I mean the whole thing about "Happiest Place on Earth" (Disneyland). We as people understand that it's obviously a slogan to get you to come and it's not going to be the happiest place for everyone. Sometimes people like to have fantasies about stuff. Life is real enough for the majority of us and we like to get a way and fantasize about things that aren't reality. Its a part of life, we as humans do.
It was almost like the author was demeaning most of the society for being disconnected from whats real and whats not real. I personally like to think that Disneyland is the happiest place on earth and that sea world and magic mountain are magical places. Not everyone wants to face everyday problems all the time, it's nice to get away from the "moment" and pretend like you have none. Places like disneyland advertise that you can get away even if it's not really real, we as people can believe what we want and make it our own reality.
