FLUXLIST: Brazilian Proverb is full of shit, needs adjustment

2005-01-22 Thread Cecil Touchon
 When shit is worth money, the poor will be born without assholes -
 Brazilian Proverb

That would not quite be right because then those without assholes would be
full of shit.

Perhaps it would actually be more like...
When shit is worth money, those born without assholes will be the poor
(unless they are savvy middle men).
and the saying His shit don´t stink would become an insult.
and the saying¨What an asshole. would become a compliment.

So why would it be a compliment when people say, He´s the shit. in these
times when shit is still worth nothing?
Are they assholes? I´m confused...

yeah

bomb culture is a great book

really nails home the fear of the bomb status of kids growing after ww2 and how 
that led into dissenting youth and the likes

Work it Cecil, work it!
OK, really the truth is...
The Brazilian Proverb part is an adaptation of
a Henry Miller quote which is:
When shit becomes valuable, the poor will be born without assholes.
So, he's the one to blame, I suppose, but quotes can be manipulated
anyway, you choose. Like I said, there is more than one answer.
