We Were Startled To Discover 10 Ways In Which We All Got Commonly Conned By Common Sense

We were on our way to common sense when we realized that it’s a trap. Common sense, essentially, means a sense that is common and in trying to be commonly sensible, are we losing our individual sensibility?

We see examples of un-commonality rarely pass by as we stop for a moment. We asked a bunch of children to draw… and we saw how their lines on paper are all unique…. before they’re taught to aspire for straight lines. From there on, at every stage we kept stumbling upon examples of common cons. ‘Uncommon Sense’ is an attempt to break away from this straight commonality and go back to being uncommonly sensible.

Why be Common when you can be Sense-ible?

    I must be pretty dense because I missed the point through all this. Even the beginning paragraph took a few tries and I'm still not 100% sure I got it.

    Love all of these. Deep and still put in one sentence how much we lost, or are risking to lose. Pictures to remember.
