Moving on!
Interesting article in Vanity Fair today - apparently V.F. and 60 minutes took a poll of approximately 580 Americans. This poll lead to the conclusion that "Americans are like straightlaced, upright citizens who turn out to have a surprising quirky streak - the accountant with an entire room dedicated to his collection of Pez dispensers. Alphabetized by character"
I must say, I wish I could agree a little more strongly. Surely we could do with more of the quirk and less of the accountant!
I should note that they based this "quirkiness" trait on the fact that 9% of Americans, if given the chance to change the map of the United States, would choose to combine the Dakotas.
Riiiiiiiiiight.
I like my individuality to be related to the amount of Pez dispensers in my possession at any given time.
ReplyDeleteIt makes me feel patriotic.
...wait, what?
Well one can never have too many Pez dispensers I suppose.
ReplyDeleteThis became far too jingoistic.

WOOO ELITIST VOCABULARY
ReplyDeleteI love how the dictionary entry for "Jingoistic" is the completely unintelligible "bellicose chauvinism."
Multiple word look-up FTL.
