The peculiarities of tradition
John Gruber:
Repetition blinds us to just how odd certain rituals of tradition are. Like how it seems perfectly normal that every December we chop down millions of small trees, decorate them with electric lights and glass balls, and display them prominently in our homes.
Gruber is actually talking about Steve Jobs and Macworld here, but I think the point is universal enough.
Have you noticed the Apple ads – the logo seems familiar…
