I concur with the above statement.

Having some kind of taste is better than having no taste at all.
It's kind of like how I would rather see someone's house decorated in a way that I might consider "tacky," but done with enthusiasm and consideration, rather than a totally utilitarian and/or mish-mash of bland whatnot picked up for the sheer purpose of "having something to sit on."

Edit:
Horrible grammar and communication, but you get my meaning I'm sure.
Apologies.

don't come to my house then, i couldn't care less about interior design

Maybe so, but I wouldn't say you "don't care" about aesthetics in general.
I was just using interior design as an example.

no definitely not, i am neither a cartoon nor a lawyer, but ha! i do seem to have several overlapping occupations.

you should come to america & see for yourself. everybody but everybody asks you upon first meeting you "what do you do?" "i eat, i shit, i fuck, i sleep" is never a satisfactory answer for nosy people.



in the simpsons he's a hack lawyer who crops up every now and again trying to encourage people to turn whatever situation in to a legal case so he can make a quick buck. what you said about every time you meet someone it means potential business made me think of that.

The carpet where i live looks like someone has taken acid and decided to design the pattern.The family who lived here before even left all the handwritten muslim prayers they sticked on every room's internal door.I left them there because i hope they bring me bad luck.

yes ha ha. since people invariable ask me "what do you do," i might as well turn it into a commercial. well, ha ha, not like that. it's subtle and disinterested but i do slip them a business card. unbelievable as it might be, eventually people call.

555-1212 used to be my cell phone number and it was really irritating getting all these wrong numbers every time i picked up.
it actually might have been 550-1212. close enough.
