While traversing the municipal transit system this evening, I observed a juvenile male subject affixing a textile insignia to his outer garment. The patch bore the inscription "FOREVER" in capital letters, flanked by previously noted patches reading "NO RULES" and "ANARCHY." :rolleyes:

This is precisely the kind of unregulated semantic drift that leads to the collapse of civilized discourse. One does not simply declare "FOREVER" without establishing the temporal boundaries of said foreverness. Is it forever until 11:59 PM? Forever until the next fiscal quarter? Forever until the server migration? Without a defined §3 Sunset Clause, the term "FOREVER" is legally void for vagueness. :banghead:

I attempted to draft a corrective memo regarding the proper use of indefinite tenses in personal heraldry, but was prevented from doing so because the bus driver refused to stop at my house. :confused:

It is my position that any declaration of permanence exceeding forty-eight hours must be accompanied by a written addendum detailing the conditions under which the declaration may be revoked. Otherwise, we are just sewing lies onto denim. And as we all know from §1.0 Visual Truth, lies sewn onto denim are still lies, regardless of the thread count.

Gabriel would have required a form 27B-6 for such a permanent alteration. Instead, we get teenagers with needles and bad legal theory. :frown:
