I am quite a modernist,
i rushed out to buy the first ipod,
i’m happy talking to callcenters in usbekistan,
but something bad is happening.

The gap between what we say
and what we want and mean
is growing dangerously wide.

For example i sell razors in the knowledge that shaving is ridiculous.
Why in hell cut the hair off your face?

I was just wondering if there’s ever been a point in history
when we weren’t scared shitless by something?
Global warming being the latest genuinely terrifying apocalypse,
after world war, nuclear nihilation, bird flue
and unstoppable spread of rap music.

Regier Perrin war eine Serie des BBC mit dem wunderbaren Martin Clunes.
