In the Time it Took…

“I thought you said you were going to clean up the garage?”, “you need to wash the car too, it’s filthy!”, “what will the neighbors think?”, nag, nag, nag…

In the Time it Took…

It seems living beyond one’s means is an aspiration nowadays, rather than a fault. The advent of the disposable lifestyle is leading (if we’re not there already) to disposable educations, societies, relationships, and people. Respectively, university students cite higher wages as the primary reason they matriculate, yet still end up in more debt than in any other time in history. Divorce rates are likewise at an all time high. Wars continue to rage. So take a page out of this innovative man’s book, when faced with the pursuit of artificiality; cheat with impunity. Because being artificial about artificiality cancels itself out.
