I have been meaning to post about this for a while now. This is the effect of being easily distracted.
There is a billboard along I-35 just over into Kansas. It advertises a local university hospital.
It reads:
In Relentless Pursuit of Curing Cancer
The damned thing bunches my panties into knots every time I pass by it.
What exactly does that mean? I know what they think they are saying, but I don’t think they actually say it. Working Towards the Cure is equally vague, but much stronger. They offer nothing of the specifics of their treatments; no facts, no helpful information. Just vague fucking stupidity.
The image with it doesn’t help: this mousy nondescript man in a scrub top. He could be a doctor, he could be an intern, he could be an orderly. He looks numbingly off into the distance, perhaps future. You know, the future that has the cure, where they no longer need to pursue it.
