a friend sent me this. I guess it's funny. Problem is, in the Too Much Information society, you get forwarded like forty jokes a day. I'm down on the average as I'm not working right now. But even so, who knows what's funny anymore? Who knows if their friends are left of centre/right of centre/mother-in-law-gag-enjoyers. Too much information/choice.

Yesterday I tried to buy new washing machine consumables, and was overcome with choice inertia. Couldn't make a fucking decision. Do I want biological or non-biological? Do i want whiter washes? Enzyme free? Organic? I had no fucking idea, so I did what I usually find helpful in these situations: nothing.
