Un(somethings)

The Mad Hatter was right!

Remember 'unbirthdays' as in 'a very happy unbirthday to you, to you'?

Well it turns out that the Mad Hatter was onto something, as un(somethings) are everywhere these days:

EU loans to Ukraine that will never be paid back - Unloans!

The BREXIT referendum result that everyone wants to overturn - Undecision!

Grabbing billions of Russian assets held in the EU - Unstealing!

Watching porn instead of real lovemaking - Unsex!

Having AI generate books for you - Unwriting!

Recently FNN got an email from a PHD student who is studying movie 'unproductions' i.e. unfilmable screenplays.

It's everywhere. George Orwell would be proud of this new lexicon - Unspeak!

You can bet your life that these days every 'something' can have an 'unsomething'.

What a topsy-turvy world we live in.
