"People are taking the piss out of you everyday. They butt into your life, take a cheap shot at you..."

Wed, 25 Nov 2009 15:24:22 +0100

“

People are taking the piss out of you everyday. They butt into your life, take a cheap shot at you and then disappear. They leer at you from tall buildings and make you feel small. They make flippant comments from buses that imply you’re not sexy enough and that all the fun is happening somewhere else. They are on TV making your girlfriend feel inadequate. They have access to the most sophisticated technology the world has ever seen and they bully you with it. They are “The Advertisers” and they are laughing at you.

You, however, are forbidden to touch them. Trademarks, intellectual property rights and copyright law mean advertisers can say what they like wherever they like with total impunity.

Fuck that. Any advert in a public space that gives you no choice whether you see it or not is yours. It’s yours to take, re-arrange and re-use. You can do whatever you like with it. Asking for permission is like asking to keep a rock someone just threw at your head.

You owe the companies nothing. Less than nothing, you especially don’t owe them any courtesy. They owe you. They have re-arranged the world to put themselves in front of you. They never asked for your permission, don’t even start asking for theirs.

Le mot du jour - 16 - mocheness

Tue, 17 Nov 2009 19:03:00 +0100

n.f., anglico-néologisme formé à partir de l’adjectif ‘moche’ (… qui signifie moche) auquel on (et on reviendra sur ce on) a ajouté le suffixe anglais -ness, qui substantive (oui, oui) un adjectif dans la langue du Barde (qui, paraît-il, n’aurait jamais existé ; mais je m’égare (tchou-tchou!)). Apparament utilisé aussi bien (bien que très peu) en français qu’en anglais, ce terme aurait été utilisé pour la première fois par Winy Maas, ou du moins l’un des membres du cabinet d’architectes MVRDV (pour Maas, Van Rijs et De Vries, si, si, ya le compte) pour désigner la grisaille des grands ensembles de la région parisienne et, par extension, celle des banlieues des grandes capitales occidentales.

NB: Je sais, le dernier mot du jour était le numéro 17 (… vous aviez remarqué, bien sûr ? ^^), mais j’avais oublié le 16 ; erreur rectifiée.

“Si vous avez déjà joué aux jeux vidéos, vous avez sûrement fait un millier de conneries, juste pour voir, et vous avez épuisé vos sept vies, et vous avez perdu la partie. L’architecte, lui, a une infinité de vies, du moins, autant qu’il a de feuilles de papier.”

Do you know what you're worth?

Sun, 15 Nov 2009 19:20:00 +0100

§richiemillennium:

There’s a world full of people who don’t know what they’re worth. Sometimes people who do know forget. Sometimes I forget. Sometimes I doubt. This is for all of us.

Do you know what you’re worth?

You’re worth the tears
The blood
The harm
The pain
The sacrifice
The misery
The anguish
The toil
The prayer

You’re worth the effort
The agony
The risk
The battle
The flaws
The mess
The regret
The investment
The wait

You’re worth being heard
Being seen
Being told
Being corrected
Being comforted
Being accepted
Being felt
Being forgiven
Being adored
Being recognized
Being embraced

You’re worth knowing
Finding
Keepng
Honoring
Enjoying
Consoling
Inspiring
Defending
Treasuring
Saving
Remembering
Loving

Lily: So what'd you guys do last night?
Robin: I wanted to go to a concert; he wanted to go to a party. Obviously we couldn't do what just one of us wanted, so, we just stayed in; watched a movie on cable.
Barney: It was Legen ... wait for it ... ds of the Fall. Legends of the Fall! It was okay.

“It was him not fighting for me. I gave him the ultimatum & he let me walk away. I didn’t want a life separate from him, & that’s all he could give me. It’s like he’s driving a car & I just want to be in the passenger seat. He’s locked the door & I have to hold onto the bumper. I am not even asking him to open the door for me, just leave it unlocked & say come in, but he didn’t do that. So I am hanging on to the bumper & life goes on. And the car goes on. & I get really badly bruised & I’m, hitting potholes. And it hurts. It really hurts. So yesterday I had to let go of the bumper because it hurts too much.”
