Blank minds
Iâve just picked up on this discussion on Textism concerning what you think about when youâre not thinking of anything else. There are some great answers: my favourite was, âWhat would happen if I started a Slinky going down the up esclator?â, and the scariest was, âSex and viral vector purification via HPLCâ.
On the bus coming home yesterday, my thinking about nothing ran thusly. âWhy has that guy got dark hair and a grey moustache? Does he dye his hair? I donât see any grey roots, and why wouldnât he dye his âtache too? Is it possible for just your facial hair to go grey? Thatâs weird. Surely your facial hair is younger than your head hair. Idiotâthey both get replaced every few days. Maybe he leaves it so that women will stare at him and wonder why his hair is dark and his âtache is grey. Must stop staring at him.â
