Five things I'm really fed up of:
1. Businesses insisting on massaging (messaging?) the humanity out of their best efforts to communicate with humans. There's a kind of insanity in that which is beyond grotesque.
2. The desparation for certainty. The world has always been adhoc, hard to measure and unwilling to yield to your command and control simplicity. Learn to love the opportunity within the cloud of 'vague'.
3. The allure 'mass' still has despite our niche know-how and why. Twitter trends; 'ooh I'm on the tele', 'I've got more friends/followers than you' - you know it doesn't make sense. Just let go.
4. Those who think they can 'use' us (that's me and you, kid) as a channel.
5. Anyone who thinks the conversation is trivial. They belittle what it is to be human and the value we place on relationships. Their loss.

Oh go on then, tell me what you're fed up of.
Here's one of mine:
ReplyDeleteLife coaches spewing random motivational affirmations to the world at large.
"May all your hopes and dreams come to fruition"
Be careful what you wish for, I have some pretty dark dreams and I hope for a world without fucking life coaches.
