Cliches and Stereotypes are a Good Thing - Seth's Blog

Some weeks ago the wooden house crew posted about annoying cliches and stereotypes. Unbeknownst to us, the two words are synonymous for more reasons than one; they actually have a common root, as Seth posted today here .
Creative gaon and soothsayer for whatever generation we are in now that he is, Seth was able to identify something positive from cliches, something we'd never done here.
The turning things on their heads bit I like a lot (e.g. Richard Branson is hardly what you'd call a steretypical CEO; I wonder how an ESL teacher wearing an expensive Italian suit would go down? Probably quite well in this part of the world).
Anyway he trumps us once again and manages to be both thought provoking and entertaining at the same time - how about that for a cliche!




Couldn't be arsed to find the e grave symbol on new keyboard for the word 'cliche' - ed
