Pistis reclaims The Cliché (1) Comfort Zone (weekending September 7th 2019)



‽istis collapsed from a challenging yoga pose and demanded to stay in the comfort zone whilst:



‽ perhaps Oti Mabuse executed the week’s most elegant sidestep on ‘Celebrity Masterchef’ – claiming not to be in her ‘element’



 possibly the Prime Minister realised that living the cliché might work as a candidate but not so well in the top job and blundered away from the possibly intimidatory and pretentious easement of a Latin epithet to the altogether less impressive: ‘big girl’s blouse’. Late news: both PM (awkwardly) and trainee police officer (unfortunately) embraced the cliché – one nearly over, the other nearly out?   



‽ maybe, The Lord President of the Council and Leader of the House of Commons found the green bench a zone of just too great a comfort  



‽ perhaps, possibly, maybe 15 (or is it 14 now?) ‘Strictly Stars’ sashaying out of the comfort zone of the day job began to realise that after a journey on a roller coaster which they didn’t yet want to end, the forthcoming show of reality might not necessarily be a dream come true



But then, if we thought too hard about why ‘nothing’ rather than ‘something’ was generally either ventured or gained then just what domains of succour might we have stepped out from and what opportunities may have been missed, or indeed avoided.
