15 brutally honest illustrations that show how sick today’s society is…

Art does not exist just to delight our eyes; art too fulfills the function of transferring ideas and provoking thoughts.” Austrian cartoonist Gerhard Haderer has been producing satirical illustrations for

These are some of his best work.

A origem da expressão “carapau de corrida”

O peixe é vendido pelos pescadores nas lotas, em leilões «invertidos», ou seja, com os preços a serem rapidamente anunciados por ordem decrescente, até que o comprador interessado o arremate com o tradicional «chiu!». Isto implica que o melhor peixe, e o mais caro, é o que é vendido primeiro, ficando para o fim o de menor qualidade. Em tempos anteriores ao transporte automóvel, as peixeiras menos escrupulosas compravam esse peixe no fim da lota, por um preço baixo, e corriam literalmente até à vila ou cidade, tentando chegar ao mesmo tempo que as que tinham comprado peixe melhor e mais caro na lota (e tentando vendê-lo, evidentemente, ao mesmo preço que o de melhor qualidade). Nem sempre os fregueses se deixavam enganar, e percebiam que aquele carapau era «carapau de corrida», comprado barato no fim da lota e transportado a correr até à vila. Hoje ainda, o que se arma em carapau de corrida, julga-se mais esperto que os outros, mas raramente os consegue enganar.
