Exodus - wrong title?

Post by oleg8888 » Mon Apr 20, 2009 4:55 pm

Shouldn't the trip TO Burning Man be called Exodus?
Exodus is when people were led OUT of slavorish Egypt to freedom.
And if YES, what would be the one word antonym to call the return from BM?

The one word that comes to mind as we are forced to return to the default world is.... "fucked-up"

More like FUCKING HELL ON EARTH.

I know it. You know it. I feel it. You feel it. I'm not a christian, I don't believe in a Hell, but the Default World (tm) is sometimes a fucking HELL. We shouldn't be living like this. Well, it's not all bad, but for the most part I believe we are all yearning for that perfect Utopian Bliss. I had a touch of this bliss this afternoon. **kissssss** :P

Given that vomitoria were the exitways from Roman amphitheaters, maybe "exodus" ain't so bad.
