"encase" you missed it.


i was chatting about encasing something ironic in plastic with david down by his microwave earlier today. (in this office we have "quads" where we all sit. each "quad" has a kitchen of sorts. equipped with sinks and fridges and microwave ovens. it's all quite lovely.) another coworker came up to us. she is great. she has been reading our blogs for some time now. she commented that she was not sure if encasing something ironic in plastic meant putting something in a box, or actually putting something into liquid that hardens and then becomes an actual cultural artifact.

well, it is the latter.

the artifact one.

which is why i assume david is freaking out.

to be honest, david has what it takes to put something ironic in plastic for the ages.

i just wonder if he can find something that will endure the test of time.

and remain ironic forever.

because thats how long these pieces will be judged.

caveat: is this post a monkey wrench meant to send davids mind awhirling again?

cue the laughing that dog did.
