everytime i check the time on a non-digital watch or clock, if i happen to already know what hour it is i feel as if i'm cheating and i wonder if i would have been able to decode the bizarre hyroglyphs and decipher the abstract way in which this device works.


also, i really love the technical definitions of some words. grotesque is a good example. the 1st def is odd in shape, fantastically ugly or absurd, etc, the 2nd, more technical definition is 'fantastic in the shaping and combination of forms, as in decorative work combining incongruous human and animal figures with scrolls, foliage, etc.' so i would love to go into a museum and comment about how things are so _GROTESQUE_!!!
