Social Motivators: The Year in Review (Part Two)

Here’s a serious issue (okay, maybe not that serious). H1N1. I honestly think the hype was way overdone. Besides the fact that you had other people talking about comparing figures, and how much more lethal other more common diseases were, you had those who simply couldn’t care. And then you have this couple.

Quite honestly, this image is utterly bizarre to me. I don’t know if anyone else sees the hilarity in it, but I giggled. H1N1 has definitely been an interesting problem faced by many; sure it was fatal and many did die, but what makes this so compelling is that, while the media blew it way out of proportion, there were no real sacrifices, and no heroes were made as a result. It was just some news story that got blown out of proportion.

On a lighter note, as a result of the H1N1 incident, the following picture has seen itself out on the internets a lot more, as the motivational poster trend continues to grow.

Feel up to a challenge? Then give yourself a shot at making a (de)motivational poster out of it and email it to me at kevin.lt.wang@gmail.com.
