When ephemera isn’t
2008-03-08 | Filed under Uncategorized |
Earlier this week, a friend wore this T-shirt. It’s a cute shirt, an obvious reference to Portal (which I still have not gotten around to playing), even if it implicates the cake itself. In short, ephemera threads.
And I realized that my internal editor doesn’t necessarily screen for relevance. I suspect “the cake is a lie” will remain part of my vocabulary, just as I will occasionally comment that “Kenya’s got lions.” It’s a curious way of dating yourself. It doesn’t necessarily imply anything about when you started, just where you were at a certain point. The mind doesn’t stagnate.
Pop culture doesn’t cycle. It accretes.
