Have you ever gone to a party and gotten a drink in a bottle and realized that your drink looks like everyone else’s? So, you start getting paranoid, thinking you can’t set it down or you may never find it again. And you think to yourself, “I’ll just tear the label of the bottle, so I’ll be able to recognize it.” So you tear the label and then set it down next to a dozen other bottles just like yours. And as you stand there smiling at your work, you realize that someone else has torn their label exactly the same way that you did. You rip off piece after piece from the label, and no matter how you tear it, someone else has done the same thing. Panic sets in, and before you know it your bottle is completely naked. And you suddenly realize that someone else has thought of that too!
Me, personally, I wouldn’t just tear my label. I would tear it into shapes and patterns. You’ll see me over in the corner doing origami with the label, making an elephant or a tulip. Because the chances that someone else can make an elephant or a tulip out of a soda bottle label has got to be small! So, I figure I’d be safe.
