Consumer

“We’re consumers. We are bi-products of a lifestyle obsession. Murder, crime, poverty, these things don’t concern me. What concerns me are celebrity magazines, television with 500 channels, some guy’s name on my underwear.”

Know what I'm referring to?

Jbear got a new sound system so his entertainment system is finally complete.
 

What a guy. 

Mismatched couches, probably picked up from the side of the road, and two bowls, one chipped.

But I can see every flaw MAC is trying to camouflage on each reality star's face.

And the intro to COD feels like I just paid to experience a bit of Hollywood.

On to the next room?

I enjoying perusing the pages of Dwell but I think I could live with mismatched couches.

I like that about him. Some things just aren't so urgent and important.

Majority of the world lives on much less.

Back to the question.

Yup. Fight Club.

I got him his favorite movie to test out the system.

How fitting. 

A film raging on consumerism in celebration of his new purchase.

“The things you own end up owning you.”

Hyperphaghia

I didn't need it. But when you see those words you suddenly grow another stomach.
Bacon.
Gelato. Correction: vanilla gelato.
Chocolate chip crumbles.

Hungry all over again.

Pasta pomodoro you amaze me.
I should stop watching Garfield. Maybe the lasagna cravings will go away.

Logorrhoea/Logorrhea

Excuse my verbal diarrhea. It's technically Logorrhoea.

{excessive flow of words; wordiness; prolixity; excessive and often incoherent talkativeness}

Talking is overrated anyway.

Hope you had a Happy St. Patricks Day!

Lunch is evil

Half the day is home and I have yet to completely check off anything on my growing to-do list. Maybe I should put in more things that are pure givens as motivation for the important items.

Maybe I didn't get a flu shot or send out my project or get quotes BUT I DID eat a cookie, check email, finish my project (where is that flash drive?), wrestle with the urge to go to starbucks, and get a big hug. One of those let's just forget about that silly to-do list right now kind of hug. Too bad lunch doesn't last all day. It's like the teaser samples at costco before you realize the delicious morsel belongs to a cheesecake with 198463289052 calories per serving and costs more than you can afford. Sometimes you wish you hadn't tasted it because now it's all you're craving.
