A lot of my friends have told me that they have loved my blog, however I rarely get comments on the blog unless I write something that's not flattering. Take the Celebrity Smell Off, for instance. I referred to Britney's perfume as being perfect for teenage slut. That got some comments. I also wrote an unfavorable post about the Vertu phone. Again, several comments. People only want to engage you if your talkin' smack, I swear. I've got the data to prove it.
So, I've decided to at least first jazz up the title to be fun. So, this title went from “Multileg Cabinet by Jaime Hayon†to “Frankentable: A Multileg Cabinet by Jaime Hayonâ€. Not bad, huh? Now, shall I rip the most talented and popular designer currently anywhere in the world, Jaime Hayon? I really love this piece, but let me take a stab at mean: It appears as if Mr. Hayon has raided a children's toybox and put a $5,000 price tag on it. Not bad? Let's try again: If the swapable leg table were a living being it would be a cross between Heather Mills and a Smurf. Hey. This is getting better. Expect some changes on Design Crack.
