#6840 : surrealists does it take to change a light bulb
How many surrealists does it take to change a light bulb?
I think the fundamental issue here is not the physical act (We,re SURREALISTS for God's {or Somebody's} sake! What would we be doing associated with physical acts?) but rather the perception of the lessened light-presence associated with the dimming of the bulb. How would we respond under such conditions? This depends rather heavily on the mood of the light-presence remaining, doen't it? We can't simply go running out for another GE Miser, we must experience the essence of the recent death. Isn't it comforting to know that when your light dims, your friends will be there to experience it with you?
We acknowledge, of course, that the ultimate experience can only be had once. After that, you,re jaded, and experience as a fundamental concept has less meaning. But after that, we still have consolation: reading the Lapp translations of the Aristotlean commentaries of the lesser Portugese philosophers, Knitting three-fingered gloves, and snubbing Dali who has forsaken all that he might have stood for and gone sooooooooooo commercial. Filthy luchre is a terrible thing. It gets in the way of what is right.
And so my answer: how many to change a light bulb?
