  1. among your fun there is an honest message here...we do live in a world of sameness...no matter how much people try to break it...all the hair color and piercing and tats, still its all superficial difference in the end...

  2. Whoa! Very clever, and as Brian says - a strong message in the midst of the mockery - great images and a lot of fun. Thanks. K.

  4. Duality and sameness is the privilege of twins but not to others. It's not just physical but so also emotional. Nice accompanying pics, Cressida!

    1. Freedom of speech and thought is being stifled by political correctness.Our society is pushing for mass conformity.

  8. Time for a Doddle's rant.

    Mass conformity to a sham 'diversity' where 'sameness' means an absence of values and where hedonistic nothingness is becoming the modern creed.

    1. Sameness is conforming to the prevailing thought and opinions of the time.Not to do so makes one a religious bigot or a fundamentalist.

    2. Just watched a program on TV where the tv presenter apologised for making a politically incorrect statement for referring to a' white' audience!LOL
