(A short editorial by me)
Cocaine is rampant in the lower income areas of our society... or, as they're more often reffered to as, the ghettos. This effects black people the most it seems, and is quite an epidemic. In a world where there's really no way up or out, cocaine is the only way for some to cope and it causes people to become quite lazy and unproductive.
However, I've been noticing a frightening pattern in Armenian society. A substance so powerful, so debelitating.. people completely loose track of time and days go by with zero productiveness. I call this substance "Armenian Crack"... however, it goes by a different name: Gohtch.
Like cocaine, this highly addictive substance comes in various forms... sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds, shelled postachios... but at the end of the day, it's all the same thing. These salty little morsels are almost impossile not to be tempted by... and once you've cracked one open between your teeth, there is no end. I've seen men, women, elders, youngsters all grow dull eyed and imobile as they sit there, crunching away as the world passes them by.
Fathers, debilitated by it's addictive nature unable to go to work on time. Mothers, crunching away for hours while they're kids are left out in the rain at school, waiting to be picked up. Gohtch has broken up families. Parents pleading with their children to "snap out of it" and go get a job, but it's no use... little Armen sits there, cracking these euphorious little seeds between his teeth while watching the latest music video on B.E.T.
Doctors have yet to understand why this has such a debelating effect on people, specifically Armenians. Why, when we can be out doing productive, creative things do we just sit at home and eat Gohtch? It's not even taboo anymore... whole families sit around in a disgustingly incestuous web of Gohtch eating, all in each others presence while staring off into space and thinking about who knows what.
So, just as Blacks must get over their Cocaine epidemic, we need to get over our Gohtch epidemic... there's a whole world out there folks! Don't waste your time rockin' the gohtch bowl. We need to break free of this thing... this Armenian Crack.
