Wondering if @georgelakoff has seen this amazing interactive metaphor map? mappingmetaphor.arts.gla.ac.uk
Sarven Capadisli@csarven ha ha, that really triggered my metaphor extrapolation addiction — I immediately thought “so PDFs go bad quickly, but… help to ripen other formats left nearby?”
Reading Lakoff+Johnson on time metaphors, wondering if the way we use the two main inconsistent metaphors (time as objects passing by a stationary observer vs time as a landscape through which an observer passes) has personality side effects, as one is a metaphor where the observer is helpless, whereas in the other the observer is in control.
