Mr. Lecter...did you drop this?


The designers were working on a presentation recently. Often they have to go shopping for materials to dress up the design with some actual items that the client can handle and discuss with the team.

One of the designers asked me to throw out her shopping list...

Red Betta Fish in a Jar
Shaving Items
Blood Oranges
A Small Mirror
Sewing Kit
Plug Converter
Flip Flops
Energy Bars
Something Soft
Thick Knit Socks
iPhone Case
Loofah
Eyemask
Apocatecary Jars
Hairbrush

And then I thought that if the list had been found in the street by a random passerby, they would probably think that they were holding a shopping list for a strange freaky sex weekend…or perhaps the kit a serial killer might assemble.

It's all about context, isn't it?
