A bunch of mindless jerks who'll be the first against the wall when the revolution comes.

I just had the worst breakfast at Bermuda airport (eggs and pancakes. could not tell for sure what was on which side of my plate, and I think applied hot sauce to pancakes and maple syrup to eggs), and that reminded me something I saw at Heathrow that almost made me lose this breakfast.




The text says "the real adventure is my life with you".

The picture above is Tiffany’s store display window at Heathrow terminal 3. As it is customary for me at any airport, I was looking for some breakfast and walked by Tiffany.

And seeing such display of affection, man immediately thinks how incredibly romantic this is, giving love such a random chance. Will the aim of love will see such display of affection same way or will she consider such gesture completely impersonal and detached? Will it make her as happy as it makes you doing this for her? And what terminal is her flight departing? She is flying back via British Airways, that’s terminal 5. But Aeroflot uses different terminal -is it terminal 2, or terminal 4, or maybe, just maybe, terminal 3, where I am right now? Have you seen any Russians in this terminal? No Russian.

And as man’s thoughts soar as high as his heartbeat, with a corner of his eye, he notices a second window display on the other side of the store’s entrance. It’s a small airport store, after all. The second display has a different ring in it. It has different note in it. This note is written in same cursive as the note in the first window. Those displays are a marketing ploy.




C’mon Tiffany’s marketing department! Isn’t it enough that recipients of these rings mess with men’s heads?

(Update)

On other hand, men do all kind of crazy stuff out of sheer free will, like this guy on postsecret.com -



bringing bunches of asparagus, fully blossoming artichokes or flowering bok choy.
