friday november 24

today i saw an advertisement on a bus shelter that read: "forget about 'em... lose your life" and had a picture of some candles in the background. i guess the implied message here is: "(if you) forget about 'em (the candles, that is)... (there's a chance that they could fall over and burn out of control and if you've fallen asleep or whatever you'll probably) lose your life." at first though, i read it as: "forget about 'em(, those other people in the bus shelter or on the bus with you. you don't need them. they don't even care about you)... lose your life (here, use these candles to do it)" and it seemed like a pretty sinister advertisement by some sort of coalition against overpopulation.
