Useless Pageantry
When people are horribly murdered, candlelight vigils fix everything because. . .
????
Or, to frame the formula better, in the event of terrible crime:
1) candlelight vigil
2) ????????
3) $$ profit!!! $$
I’ll never understand people.
We used to go and horribly murder them back as group therapy. Now we just drip wax everywhere.
I must agree – never quite understood the significance. Growing up and being forced to attend church every time the doors were unlocked, I was always an unlucky participant in Christmas Eve candelight services. I think it was just for atmospheric/aesthetic purposes though. Mary and the baby Jesus look purtier in candelight. When it comes to dead people, I’m at a ???? also. Maybe it takes some fear away from all those college students…I say, screw candle wax and give them a Valium. They’ll feel MUCH better after that.
