I was talking to my nieces about their shopping preferences and one of them mentioned Anthropologie, which is a clothes store. I was amused but then it began to make sense. Anthropologists study various cultures, and what is more cultural than clothes/fashion. So, of course, I had to ponder the notion of a Political Science store.
What would it sell? Not clothes as our breed has pretty lame taste as a general rule. I was thinking tables, heaps of them. Mostly squares, as in 2 by 2s. What else? Arrows? Policy advice? No, that would be silly. Who would buy policy advice from political scientists?! I mean, we make terrible National Security Advisers. Perhaps suggestions on how to combat zombies?
I am very open to suggestions. What do my readers think?

"PoliSci" sells guns (obvious). Except for its Quebec branches, "Sciences Po", which sells balaclavas.

ReplyDeleteWhy does "Guns & Furniture" sound like a good combo?
Guns, tents, and self-help guides for creating insurgent rebel organizations.
ReplyDeleteA series of survival guides and for dummies books perhaps.
