Tonight I’ve been opposing all my bad habits. This means that after finishing supper (while browsing apartment rental listings on my computer), I got off the computer and did stuff. I’m currently getting NIME video footage on my computer, cleaning up my place, listening to Led Zepplin and getting an area prepped for painting. OK so I am on Waffles right now but that was just because I saw something very amusing.
I read the label of a can of Golden Gel Medium:

WARNING: This product contains a chemical(s) known to the State of California to cause cancer.

So I know this just means that I should avoid eating or inhaling the stuff… …but it’s just weird to see. We spend so much time fearing things that = possible death and we build up these ideas and fears around things like flying and bungee jumping and venomous spiders and water + lightning when we don’t think of all the little things (well most of us don’t, some do).
I love warning labels. My favorite still being the one telling people not to put babies in rubbermaid containers (those large ones you know).
