Greave, Prey, Hope or Shop

What to do when something bad happens?



"Our enormously productive economy… demands that we make consumption our way of life, that we convert the buying and use of goods into rituals, that we seek our spiritual satisfaction, our ego satisfaction, in consumption… We need things consumed, burned up, worn out, replaced, and discarded at an ever increasing rate."

- Victor Lebow, 1955

ANSWER: SHOP

Louise Bourgeois

Australia Impressions 6: Fake Competitions

This is totally insulting and robbery. I don't know who does this but this is really bad.

  • For $5 you can will $10,000 by telling them by SMS which ocean is next to WA, A or B.
  • A personal fortune cookie for only $9
  • Sign up for X for $5 sign up plus $4 per day.....

This is totally immoral and should somehow be illegal.
