I've watched a BBC documentary on shopping, more precisely on why is shopping such an addiction. I consider myself not that addicted, with the exception of the mentioned stationary or design books. Anyway, the comparison of shopping with drugs is there, and is not that pointless. The part of the documentary where they said that people act on subconscious level while on a supermarkt made me think. Yes, people rarely bump into each other while on a supermarket, compared to other situations, because, yes, people become drones. Scary, eh? Then, they showed an experiment, on which people first saw a poster saying "Canned soup — 79c.", and then saw a poster saying "Canned soup — 79c. — max. 12 cans per person". Not surprisingly, people did ignore the first one, but would avidly pick up the 12 cans upon being presented with the second. Mind blowing evidence that we are really drones.¶
Stationary. Office supplies. I don't know why I have such a fetish on them. Notepads, porfolios, scratch books. Things related to paper, I love it, and I'm addicted to buying these things.¶
The lunatic of the year. In comparison, the Flat Earth Society is pure science.¶
