Either Or - Negativland

Either, or

Black, white

I and you, we and you

We get into a loop

Either, or—It's really hard to make decisions about everything

Black, white—so I want to take those things that I do every single day

I and you—and I want to put them in a part of my brain that doesn’t work as hard

This is the correct way (To be fooled)

We and you—We essentially store patterns

We, the crowd—we tend to believe almost all patterns we encounter,

even the false ones

Good and bad—You brain actually stops working so hard when you’re in the middle

of a habit

And we’re not very good at discriminating between true and false patterns

And already you are separated into two camps.

And you are on the point of

fighting over absolutely non-existent differences

And then I tried to figure out what the reward was.

And I thought it was the

cookie…

It doesn’t feel like we’re thinking
