What will emotional obesity look like?
Once upon a time (Even now in some places) humans starved to death.
Now we have a TV show Called "My 600 LB life."
We as humans have a tendency to really over compensate.
Now, where people once starved to death, they eat themselves to death.
Emotions.
We as humans tend to hate negative emotions. We love to feel good all the time. If humans continue to overcompensate I see a world where no human will ever have to feel an unwanted emotion.
It may be via a electronic device, or drugs. But I see a day where one can control the release of endorphins, dopamine, and serotonin into one's own blood stream.
Over time these chemical release will be stream lined with the help of virtual reality technology I assume.
Want to hit the game winning home run at the World series? Go right ahead.
Want to date a supermodel? Sure just name which one.
Can humans ever accomplish anything grand without pain?
When the vast majority of humans are living in their oculus rift, clicking their happy button constantly, will we collapse into a black hole of self absorption?
Does this explain the Fermi Paradox.
Aliens got so caught up with themselves, they just said "Screw our space program."
