Mad World

Literally inspired by the song "Mad World" by Gary Jules. I love that song..

I think that there are inevitable things....Reasonable thing...Things! That are perhaps the most random things ....

What would you do, if the person you loved just came up to you said "I'm sorry I love you"? Why do we bring flowers to funerals and weddings when flowers die? How did humans, scientifically, get on Earth? When would you eat a pickle, even though you hate pickles? Is this a mad world? WHY YES! THIS! This world that we live in is a bundle of circular chairs sitting at a square table.

When a person gets married and they say their "I do", what are they saying I do to? How did we become humans, when neanderthals were first? Is Bigfoot a neanderthal? I question and I question, I never search for an answer to that or an answer this.

We have...been living in a mad world, knowing that we live in a mad world but we never admitted that we lived in a mad world.

 

THIS IS ONE HELL OF A MAD WORLD!

[Melody]

Lol. Thank you. :)

[Kent Smotherman]

I don't understand, is this in the wrong category? It is listed to me as a screenplay, but that's not what I see...

[Melody]

It is nothing the wrong category then. I wrote it to be a monologue.
Thank you for reading.

[Melody]

I did not mean "nothing". I meant "not" lol. Stupid typos.

[Owlgirl]

I agree! And well spoken!

[Melody]

Thank you, Owlgirl. :)

[Sam Gregory]

You do ponder some great things ya know :) This was intersting, I often think about philosophical things like this too. U had used repetition well here too, keep it up

[Melody]

Thank you thank you kind sir. :)

[Timeless-Chan]

is the world mad or it is us that are mad? most of the things up there are human inventions, human reactions, human thoughts. perhaps it is not the world that has gone mad on us but the minds that we rely so much on. this is the reason why no one notices. slowly our reality is becoming crazy and upside down because of our minds! we create what it tells us to, we think in the way it pleases, and our theories come from the depths of its concousness... to notice this is to be called sane? i think not. we are all a little twisted and our world is starting to reflect this!
ah... i think i just confused myself a bit there:P of course my ramblings often do this! great screenplay tho!:)

[Melody]

Hmm...That's quite the thing to ponder. :) Thank you.

[nigrum homonculus]

ah i actually loved this. made me question just as much as you did. but here's something you should read upon for the "how did humans get on earth". its a bit of a messed up theory but it makes crazy sense. ever heard of the Sumerian? like a race before us. basically its rumoured they came here when the human race was young, taught Neanderthals everything they needed to evolve into the human you see today. even the Egyptian an Aztecan culture speak of it on their hieroglyphics and symbols. i mean how could a civilisation 2000 years ago depict gods that looked like the aliens we see today come from the sky in what looks like alien spaceships? its a weird a*s theory as i said. but it makes disturbing sense. anyway sorry for the ramble.

[Melody]

I have vaguely heard of the Sumerian. From what you just gave me, I think I understand what it is. It's an interesting story, and indeed is an odd theory. Maybe I'll read up on it one day. :)
Glad you enjoyed this.

[xxxrawr_friendxxx]

Quite different, lol. This is a mad world. And I agree with Michael G., the title reminded me of "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" too hehe. Good job.

[Melody]

Thank you! :) Lol.

[Melody]

I think I should probably watch the movie sooner or later. Lol. XD

[Fréyjä Helv..]

This world will always be dumping questions on you, and no matter what scientists, philosophers, mathematicians, geniuses and other people who try so hard to make up answers to these questions, we will always look back at the ONE who created us... That is if you have a heart to accept faith... It is what gives us a clear thought, a sense of peace of mind to go through struggles this MAD WORLD throws at us...

[Melody]

Very true, very true. :) Thanks for reading it.

[Michael G.]

I know you are serious about this premise.
It just brought to my mind a 1963 comedy movie, "It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World." It had almost every comedian in the business in it.
The strange part of it, in reality, the movie came out two weeks after the assassination of President Kennedy. No one was in the mood for a comedy at that time. (A mad world, indeed.)
Keep writing.

[Melody]

Lol, umm...Okay then. Thank you. And I can see why nobody would be in the mood for a comedy then. read moreLol, umm...Okay then. Thank you. And I can see why nobody would be in the mood for a comedy then.
Thank you Michael. :)

Interesting... The concept is intriguing, though vague in some areas. I like it! Good job. Though it did make me want to read more.

[Melody]

Thank you. :) I thought the same thing, I just didn't know what ele to add to it. :/ I'll probably add to it later or something. :)

[ewest1220]

I'm looking forward to it :)

[Melody]

Cool. ^.^
