Can we eat before the content?
Fictional launch letter
Dear Duck,
My friend makes everyone wait while she photographs every dish. How can I ask her to stop without ruining dinner?
— Cold Risotto
Dear Hostage of the Overhead Angle,
Say, “One quick photo, then we eat.” Begin eating when the agreed moment passes.
Your dinner does not owe anybody a campaign rollout. If she requires seventeen variations, she may order a private potato and negotiate directly with it. You have come to share a meal, not to appear as supporting cutlery in somebody’s personal brand.
