The metacars that ate Cannington

Decorating you car with a picture of itself is a bit like getting a tattoo of yourself on your backside. Not cool.I tried to find out what Derrida and Lacan had to say on meta texts, but although extensively commenting, they were both a little opaque. Rather less obtuse, Matt says, “Use, don’t use, I don’t give a shit.” Good. A great example to others. Nice to see a long ago worst still existing to the right.

    hmm, perhaps some of this kind of thinking was behind it. Still inexcusable. This, is still cool though.

    Car aside, there been a worsting of the curtain shop facade in the background? Do I remember it or is it just so shitty that I subconsciously think it would have already been done?
