a snow of butterflies : texticity

At the gas station I noticed there were instructions printed on the self-service pump. They were:

"Pump Operation Instructions

1. Follow instructions on screen below."


No kidding, that was it. First mankind put instructions on boxes of toothpicks (no kidding, go check), now this.

I beleive in evolution; obviously, mankind was the second-to-last step, with cheesecake being the higher being -- it does not need instructions on how to pick its teeth.
