MWGS halts Affleck film

Missing White Girl Syndrome has reached a new low. Ben Affleck's new movie about a fictional missing white girl, Gone Baby Gone, has been postponed indefinitely by its distributer, Buena Vista International, for "similarities to the Madeleine McCann case."

Key quote: Gone Baby Gone was based on a 1998 novel by Dennis Lehane and was filmed last year, before Madeleine's disappearance, the film companies said.

Apparently, there are no other missing children right now, and any fictional portrayal of one is, in fact, this particular missing white girl.

MWGS is a condition that causes the brain to only care when a white girl goes missing. It effectively shuts down peripheral vision, which causes all focus to center on the white girl in peril.

Other symptoms of MWGS include:
  • Victimizing the parents if they are white and attractive.
  • Handwringing.
  • Unfounded speculation that the child will be found unharmed (because they're little princesses that the dragons merely guard).
If you, a friend or a family member are suffering from MWGS, please visit your nearest low-income housing district to see some real pain.
