I'm getting so very bored of all the 'Keep Calm and Carry On' posters, mugs, aprons, bed quilts, pillows and practically anything that can be given the 'Keep Calm..' make-over. Ok, so maybe it's not about the original poster, because in some ways it has become a design classic of morale boosting posters. It's more about all the variants that have sprouted from the phrase. Keep Calm and Eat Cake, Keep Calm and Make Tea, and even Keep Calm and Fuck Off. It feels like there's no creativity, and I doubt that most of the people who are creating this rubbish have a clue about the history of the poster.
Keep Calm and Move onto the Next Fad.
