Slow Food started in Paris in 1989, and people have been living off the convivial air for eons, eating, drinking, laughing, lazing, getting obese, etc. Someone cut me some slack.
Slow Food arose in protection of mankind's right to taste. (And right to enjoy life, of which i have none) It champions the firm defence of quiet material pleasure as the only way to oppose the universal folly of the Fast Life. (Which i lead)
From the site:
"We are enslaved by speed and have all succumbed to the same insidious virus: Fast Life, which disrupts our habits, pervades the privacy of out homes and forces us to eat Fast Food. May suitable doses of guaranteed sensual pleasure and slow, long-lasting enjoyment preserve us from the contagion of the multitude who mistake frenzy for efficiency.
Excerpt: Slow Food Manifesto, 1989."
All those in favour of good food and lazy living, post me an 'aye'.
