Bling

has been seen as negative as Wikipedia helpfully points out here.
But in my research I have found out that it has many good qualities.

First it is sparkly and shiny.
That cannot be bad.

Second, you can do it cheaply with Gold Spray.
Think about it.
Thirdly, it would be WONDERFUL in a glass cabinet and that is exactly why we like museums ...


as they are full of bling, especially the crown jewels.


Also, it can go with you when you travel and can instantiate your identity in amazingly positive ways.
I rest my case.

marvellous. I love bling. We must celebrate that word and bring it back into good repute.

My Mm had a special word for bling. It is 'common'. Actially lots of things are 'common' and bling is just one of them.
I may do a post on this.
