Flugennock's Latest'n'Greatest: "Choose Joy."

"Choose Joy"
http://sinkers.org/stage/?p=4004

So, I'm out doing my laps earlier this week, and I spot this lawn sign 
in front of a house about 2 blocks around the corner from us — and all 
I can think is that somebody in the DNC's ad agencies isn't quite 
clear on the concept of "joy". Not just as an intelligent human, but 
as a designer and art director with 30+ years in the biz, I gotta say 
that this choice of color and typography does NOT bespeak "joy".

The sign glowers at me, dark and mean, telling me to "choose joy" as 
if issuing an order, as if implying "...or ELSE" — coming off like the 
latest in a long line of fascistic, authoritarian slogans: War Is 
Peace, Freedom Is Slavery, Ignorance Is Strength; Arbeit Macht Frei; 
Country Over Party. Choose Joy, or else.
