Putting on Text
When I put on text, I most definitely expect to have readers. Text is a very powerful thing, and human beings are very egotistical people. Together, they use the text to promote themselves and their beliefs. For example, I love Led Zeppelin. When I wear a Led Zeppelin tee shirt, I expect to have someone know who they are and maybe strike up a conversation. I use the power of text to have people read it and strike up a conversation.

Thanks for this delightful, insightful post! I also wear text with consideration to my audience. Have you considered that different environments might affect the text you want to wear, though? It might be weird to wear a band shirt around your grandparents, for example. Does this affect the text you decide to wear?
ReplyDeleteThank you for your strongly voiced post! When I wear text I also know to expect readers, and I also agree with you that human beings are very egotistical people. However, have you thought about how stubborn human beings are as well? I'm asking you this because I think that human beings can also be stubborn and selfish which could result in them wearing text just because they want to. Do you think there are people that wear text and don't anticipate readers at all?
