Another great strip by Bill Watterson.
It really is a stupid game! I don't understand the thrill of it, you spend all that time and money and just end up with nothing but a bunch of dead people on the streets. The world doesn't need another war.
You know what I think is most peculiar? The fact that it's because of war that we appreciate peace. Every time a war has just ended the world gathers in a huge crowd and cheer in unison, people cry from happiness and we are so grateful to have found peace. Then time goes on and we are stuck in our stressful jobs yet again and we complain despite the fact that we live in peace because the euphoria is gone. I don't think it's worth the bloodshed though, I would rather we live bleak, monotonous lives where nothing really matters than have people fight for reasons that make no sense and will eventually be forgotten.
