Working where I do, you see a lot of dirty lorries and vans. Why do people always write "Clean me" and the like on them? One time I saw "All I want for Christmas is a clean", which is really tugging on the heartstrings to an unnecessary degree.
The thing is, nobody writes "Clean your van", or "This lorry is really dirty". It's always first-person, written from the point of view of the vehicle. I suspect that the lorries exert a hypnotic influence over passers-by, and compel them to write these messages.
Note - I saw David Cameron and Nick Clegg today, and the above is the most important thing I can think to write about.
I am sure the coalition leaders have better things to do with their time than write things on vans. However, can we pass it off as coincidence?
ReplyDeleteI once saw "if only my wife was as dirty as this" which I thought was quite good.
