Nobody has headaches; they have migraines.
Nobody throws fits; they have nervous breakdowns.
Nobody has ideas; they have revelations.
Nobody’s smart; they’re geniuses.
Soldiers went from shellshock to post traumatic stress disorder
Wars became foreign conflicts
Deaths became collateral damage
Yet every new Apple product is a Gutenberg Moment.
Every long movie is an epic.
Every crime is the worst act in the history of its context.

Funny because it's true. And no one has a bright idea anymore, it's an epiphany or nothing.
