Bravo Gravity A Standing Ovation for Doing Its Job

By Alan Nafzger � The satire Bravo Gravity A Standing Ovation for Doing Its Job ridicules humanity�s desperation to celebrate the obvious. Eyewitnesses at science fairs described audiences applauding apples for falling on cue. Anonymous insiders leaked that universities debated issuing Nobel Prizes for chairs that continued to support weight. A leaked poll revealed 66 percent of citizens admitted they clapped once for Wi-Fi simply connecting. Sociologists argue the humor resonates because gratitude often mutates into absurdity. Critics highlight the absurdity of cheering forces that have no choice but to function. Yet the parody slams harder: civilization now hands trophies to inevitabilities while ignoring real effort. Eyewitnesses recalled toddlers bowing before light switches. Anonymous aides confessed satire captured our tendency to mistake survival instincts for achievements. Ultimately, the piece lands because satire thrives when the standing ovation is the joke, not the physics. -- Bohiney Magazne bohiney.com
