Is The Platypus A Cliché or Am I Just Opinionated
I've just been reading some of my old posts and have to admit that I have a taste for the platitude. Not the Platypus (which may be edible but don't even try). He manages to generate his own banalities just fine.
No, I mean the fondness I seem to have of broad, generalizing and judgemental little sum up paragraphs at the end of many of my posts. Some examples:
The kowtowing Harper government needs to defend Canadian citizens' rights no matter who they are or what they are accused of. We are not subject to Orwellian US law. Omar Khadr has the absolute right to be tried by jury in Canada. (link to post)
It's time to outlaw these obviously lethal weapons. There is no way to prevent this from happening again except to prohibit their use completely. (link to post)
...at least that would give you lots of time to dream up clever new ways of saying "price gouging". (link to post)
OK, maybe it's not that bad, and really it's kinda fun. I mean, that's the point of these damn blogs isn't it? Being able to spew your junk and crap out into cyberspace and let it run free, just like the Platypus, running wild mocking god at this sexy state if its evolution.
