When a bus or tube terminates here in the big smoke, the driver comes on the PA and says “All Change”, everybody, except those asleep, does so.
Interestingly, when a driver keeps the doors open at a station and explains over the PA that “we’ll just be held here for a few moments, due to signal problems”, he is not disbelieved either.
Question: What would happen if both messages we’re broadcast at the same time.
Answer: Something like the record industry we as we currently know it.

Here is a sentence I wrote in the draft manifesto of the whole swishism quest, when I first began
I guess I am trying to write swishisms that shame.whoever.is.still.hawking lies, that stretch.whatever’s.inelastic.starting.here, today; realising that it will either snap back with a force that propels us to another place or break the status quo entirely.
I think I was onto something, what I didn’t count on was my inconsistency posting these posts. Since starting this blog, though, some things have changed. Long story short: I’m in shape of my life, I exercise a few times week, eat a reasonable diet, get enough sleep, but…
some very good physiotherapists have assured me I need to do a series of stretches everyday for the rest of my life to stay at a physical peak without pain. Everyday. Nothing to panic about; I’m thankful that it’s just a preventive measure that will help to avoid any real pain, and offer huge flexibility gain. More than that I’ve snapped out of agreeing that inconsistency, in any respect, is OK, that it has no effect (although it didn’t cause the condition, inconsitency won’t help it). No more hawking lies to self or refusing to stretch for me. Lets hope we see that commitment online, too. I’ll be posting 3 swishisms a week from now on.

No really… it does
Find anybody talking smack about anything, me included, and chances are lack of insight is the problem. Do you see?

discernment, distinction, illusion
