The Tell Tale Signs of a Collage Addict

a collage addict has been here

Collage artistry is a serious addiction for which there is no known cure.  You will know the collage artist when you meet him or her because of the strange behavior.  When walking on the street, they may suddenly stop to pick up bits of paper garbage which they may later wash and iron.  Some of them are particularly interested in rusty things they find on the ground.  They are no longer interested in the contents of their mail but focus on the envelopes and stamps.  They hoard magazines and all sorts of printed materials which they store in strange filing systems.  These files often have bizarre labels such as "greeny-blue", "rough", "shiny" or simply  "things".    When they start collaging they loose all sense of time and space and their habitats become littered with debris.  If you know someone who has been affected by collage, it's best not to confront them with their problem since it is incurable.  Simply smile and nod and give them bits of garbage, like candy wrappers or electrical tape and they will be happy and scurry off to continue their collaging.
