I too was young like you
Once
Now I’m only good for barbecue
I was
Weathered by the winds of time
World weary
The glow of youth has gone
But
A pepper is a pepper is a pepper
Now
Skin leathery or crisp
I
Bring flavour with equal satisfaction
See
When we’re all in the same pot
Life itself.
Tired of 2 dimensional films?
Bored with 3 dimensions?
You’ve even tried making the images move by adding time and you can’t seem to break the banality of it all?
Well lament no more… Coming to a cinema near you* –
Critics are calling it: “Unreal”.
“I couldn’t believe what I was seeing.”
“That extra dimension really pulled me in.”
“I’d ride the penteract again.”
*actual proximity to cinema will vary depending on your position in space and time. Depending on your adopted theory of a fifth dimension, your state on this plane could be mathematically valid but will have no bearing on your ability to locate the virtual rollercoaster.
This morning I was pouring sugar from its bag into a bowl that we store it in and I was struck by the sensation of it all. That movement, the granular rush, the flow, I couldn’t help but be reminded of an hourglass. The slip of moments, seconds, minutes, time, passing away, drawing me forwards, ever closer to that inevitability – type 2 diabetes.
What is with this ad?
An Australian actor who plays an American psychologist on a TV show, posing with a horse. …sorry, what?
I understand the company likes horses – but how does this make people want to buy a watch? You can barely see it!
Which is fine, I guess, since “elegance is an attitude”.
Would that be like a fast food company stating that “hunger is a state of mind”?
Or a cosmetics company saying “beauty is subjective”?
If I were selling watches I’d come up with a relevant catch phrase, like: “Do you know what time it is? No? Time to get a watch!”
Though I could only sell cheap watches. Not everyone can afford elegance.
