Okay, so I overheard a brief exchange last night that I wanted to pass on. Two guys on the sidewalk, talking vigorously. From the bits and pieces I picked up, they were fashion designers - and they mainly did stuff with denim. I heard the word "denim" sprinkled throughout the exchange. They spoke a technical language that was like Swahili, I did not understand a WORD. They also were speaking about someone who obviously was in competition with them ...
And here's what I heard.
Guy # 1: They're techno-cad and we're American traditionalists.
Guy # 2: Yeah, man, we got the moral high ground.
Let me note: this was said with absolutely no irony. They were discussing DENIM and they used the words "moral high ground".
Life is beautiful.
Posted by sheilaI would have walked up, raised a fist in solidarity, and cried "carpe denim!"
But that's just the kind of mood I'm in today...
