Breaking Open Creative Thought
Recently, I attended a seminar where the instructor invited everyone to “introduce” themselves. I anticipated having to share what I do and where I’m from and then, either answer some ridiculous icebreaker question or participate in some crazy icebreaker exercise. As predicted, the question arrived but what I hadn’t expected was that the question would illicit responses, such as spork and the clapper, as well as reasons for those responses that would cause eruptions of laughter.
Now, I’d like to ask you. What do you wish you could “un-invent”? What is the one thing you wish had never been invented?
For me, it’s pantyhose. Putting on a pair of pantyhose is what I imagine it might be like to partake in professional wrestling.
For me it would be the swallowing of pills.
I have to drink a gallon of water and it still doesnt go down. I have to remember to bring apple sauce to work
so I dont have to call 911 in case I choke on them.
Come on how about liquid for all PILLS.
Give us small throat people a break. Guess I wouldnt
do good in the adult entertainment business. Yikes.
video games, I think. Such a waste of time. Obviously, I’m not a fan, but just think of all the things those video game addicts could be doing while they are pretending to be guitar heroes. Maybe they could actually learn to play.
While I’m at it, lets get rid of the paparazzi.
Blackberries……..I mean crackberries. Both my Father in Law and my husband are addicts.
Lisa I just want you to know I literally laughed out loud when I read your post. Our minds must roam around in the gutter together because as I read I had the same thought. Then I read that line and just lost it!
I’m a ‘video game’ on a rainy day gal…whenever I couldn’t swim or be outside that’s what I did BUT in moderation. I get what you are saying…makes sense and I 110% agree with you about the paparazzi!
Seriously they are crackberries….I do not have one but EVERYONE I see with one acts the same….obssessed!
