Vernaculars for Knowledge:
I have a whole epistemological vernacular. It is my own argot, but many of the key terms I use are highly loaded and have became a sort of theoretical shorthand. Even as I write this, which was to be an explanation for a new category in my blog “epistemological vernaculars”, I’ve realised that each of my key terms could easily become a brief essay in their own right! Anyway, one facet (that’s one of my shorthand theoretical terms, so stay tuned) of the writing and thinking I’ve been doing around material thought is that in material thinking we each develop our own vernaculars.

SIRC – Passport to the Pub:
Passport to the Pub: A guide to British pub etiquette
“By all means visit Stonehenge and Buckingham Palace, but if you want to see what real life in Britain is all about, you have to go to the pub. Pub-going is by far the most popular native pastime. The 61,000 pubs in Britain have over 25 million loyal customers. Over three-quarters of the adult population go to pubs, and over a third are ‘regulars’, visiting the pub at least once a week. The pub is a central part of British life and culture. If you haven’t been to a pub, you haven’t seen Britain.”
