the secret life of us

All great subversive underground movements have a code. It might be a dialect they invented themselves, it might be street slang or it might be secret symbols hidden or not noteworthy unless you know what you are looking for. To take a tame example .. to the initiated, warchalking symbols show you where you can hitch a free ride on someone else's wireless network.

Cool stuff, but too niche for my tastes. It's time for a great useful overground movement.

The sandwich shops around where I work are rubbish. And if they're not rubbish, they're overpriced. I guess it's par for the course in a big city full of the also-lunchings; supply < demand and all that. Thing is, some places are not rubbish. But we don't all know where they are. Sure, word of mouth might eventually reach you but why wait? Enter Warlunching. Get out your chalk and draw..
