I guess I liked the original "Carry On" message, but, when I started seeing it followed by "and Eat Cake" and "You're Only 80!", I got a bit tired of it, but this is a cool use of the meme.
Hi RC --
I agree that a lot of the "Carry On" (or, rather "Keep Calm" -- because that's more what I've seen here in Hong Kong) messages emblazoned on t-shirts and such have been lame but that the "love Hong Kong" one is cool.
I didn't actually research the messages' historical origins until seeing you comments -- thanks for bringing that to my attention! Re the poster: notice the umbrellas too? :)
It's an awesome use of the meme, definitely. It's an intriguing thing as well, in terms of its origins. I mean, it's totally transformed in tons of ways, some trivial and some rather more potent. I do quite like the umbrella design here, very smart!
Hi again RC --
One of the interesting things about the Hong Kong protests: the amount of artistic creativity that's appeared to be shared! :)
