Advantages: Miracles happen.

Disadvantages: People die needlessly again and again on a huge scale.

Do you ever have one of those days when you hate something so intensely that it interferes with your daily life and bleeds into your subconscious so virilently that you essentially become a zombie? Me too. But someone turned the volume up to 11. So now even the littlest of things drive me insane. It could be someones hair. Or Peter Mandelson's smirk. And that my fellow Dooyoo'ers is a little unfair.

Realism is sobering. The state is inherently corrupt, we're in the 21st century and on the arse end of a recession. I thought it was a given that politicians were untrustworthy and that the title of 'right honourable' was a sick joke. But at every turn there is another example of us being shafted, whether it be stealth taxes, healthcare or non-existent referendums. Ok so we could scrape by in a fit of apathy and lead an ignorance is bliss distorted existence. But the corruption bleeds out into the civil service, the security service, the judiciary and on and on and on....

Being British we all moan about what an outrage it is that MP's can claim for a light bulb or that judges always seem to light on paedophiles. (Birds of a feather an all that. Allegedly). No-one ever actually stands up to be counted. No-one ever advocates for others before themselves. It's a joke and slowly we are all being swallowed in a tide of disaffected glue.

Revolution? Hell, we could talk a great one if got our collective heads together. Talk definitely. Nothing more because you know that you will be on a trumped up social disorder charge, unable to voice your democratic opinion because it is a 'risk to law and order'. Revolution is the stuff of history books in this day and age. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to take an AK-47 to PM's question time, along with some spare mags, a Gloch and some grenades. It's just not the done thing anymore. Everything is so tight you can't tie your shoelace without being seen from 10 different angles.

Can you put the whole country in Room 101? No, but I would go straight for the entire world. You know when things reach there natural conclusion? It's time to let the next big thing come along. The upper echelons have become so big and knowledgeable they are playing God. Money and power corrupt.

So maybe it's time for us to be eradicated. Hold on stick with me here. We have literally billions in poverty, many starving and we spend trillions on space and defence projects. Sport stars sign £50 million contracts. We ravage the earth of natural resources and do nothing. The human race is wiping itself out slowly but surely. Would it be really such a bad thing to start again?

A killer virus wiping out 98% of the global population would be like a reboot on a pc. Sometimes we just need some time to reflect on what we have done, but it's getting to the stage where we can't see the wood for the trees. If you don't agree then at least have the strength to go out and be nice to people. Or help someone out. Altruistically.

You could be freaking out about this time. But hey, I'm just some guy sat at the dining room table with his netbook and feeling righteously pissed off at the world we live in. Now imagine this scenario: Somewhere there is a guy who probably has, say $100m, has dubious political connections and meglomaniacal aspirations. What a recipe for disaster. And you were worried about me! Get with the program it happens...

Be advised that I see my psychiatrist regularly and take my extensive range of medication without question. I am therefore no more dangerous than a man who wee's in his shoes or paints Picasso style representations with a brush stuck up his arse.

Summary: Revolution needed. Apply in the first instance.
