Foralaji

Types of cars say a lot about the owners. Walked by a carefully detailed BMW SUV this morning. Shiny black finish glowing impressively. White plop of bird poop on the rear panel. A moment of fiscal justice.

Ivy looks wonderful on buildings. Green against the red brick. People new to a large city buy these buildings. Old home owners know better. The roots of the ivy feeds on brick mortar. Costs thousands to fix every two decades. Looks nice.

Don't buy a building with painted brick. After two decades the brick crumbles. It needs to breathe.

All these have hidden subtexts. But today I don't want to figure those out.
