And literally true. One of the reasons you see so many chinese tattoos is because it is a symbolic language. (like emojis). Many reasons for this - some good; symbols are a powerful means of communication. Some not so good - people's diminished attentions spans and the continued memeification of the world and the weirdness of trying to fit things into a 280 character tweet.

Even the Bible. Preachers have shifted from preaching from the Epistles of Paul to the words of Jesus in the gospel. Paul was a master of rhetoric and exposition - Jesus was a master of story and symbol - it is much easier to move to story than to unpack rhetoric; particularly with a largly biblically illiterate population.

I’m not content with this content.

I object to that object.

I need to read what I read again.

Excuse me but there’s no excuse for this.

Someone should wind this post up and throw it to the wind.

The bartender asks, “What’s with the big pause?”

The bear shrugs. “I was born with them.”
