Something controversial causes "outrage"

A controversial statement, act and/or threat caused outrage yesterday, as shocked onlookers, commentators, politicians and activists engaged in collective teeth gnashing at something so deliberately provocative, the culprit wore a cloak, twirled a thin moustache and cackled manically. One shocked individual claimed that this was the most horrendous thing they’d seen in at least a week. “This obviously deplorable. But more problematic is that it's just something else I have to be outraged by. Honestly it's becoming a full time job trying to keep my outrage keenly honed. I mean there's something new to be outraged by every day and to be blunt, there are only so many things I can be simultaneously outraged by, before I get completely lost. It's so got so bad recently I’ve completely missed things I would have caused me enormous outrage. I've even had to feign my horror because I’ve lost track. It's really embarrassing being outraged when I should have been delighted. In my defence though, it's not my fault. With the cuts, world hunger, threats to burn things, the size of luggage cages, the fate of beached whales, wars, famines, the economy, doctored talent shows, governmental waste, soft prison sentences, identity theft, and the other threats and attacks on life and individual freedoms, its not surprising to find that I’m completely swamped. I can't make informed decisions any more as, every day, there is a stream of things I should be shocked, outraged or worried by. And I don't have the time make the distinctions between the things I should be “really” worried about, and the things I'm told I should be worried about. It's getting so that I can't be sure my apoplexy is directed at the right things. Frankly this is keeping me awake. Or rather it would, if I wasn't lying awake at night, worried shitless about the other outrageous things in the world, I'm already outraged about. That said this recent development, whatever it is, is completely outrageous and should be stopped. Or started. Or banned. Or allowed. Or something."
