“Globalization - what a pain in the ass!
When the history of the world is written, what do you think it will celebrate, our diversity or our ability to sell the same product to 6 Billion people? When the last polonesean island opens it brunch of Starbucks i for one will vomit under my globally available IKEA coffee table. There are people who won’t rest until there’s a Pizza-Hut inside macio pico [?] and a branch of the carphone warehouse on the moon.”
“So what are your frustrations and issues in a nutshell?”
“Death, earphones, pointless cobbled together leaflets, a sense that love is the answer coupled with this searing hatred of so many things, and people.
Disposable razors, world over population, fear of briefcases, fantasies, often violent, dark places, over-lit places, trains with windows you can’t open, people who call me reggo,
the urge to scream
and a nostalgia for unwanted erections.”
