What is it to be a fruit?Strictly speaking, it’s the part of the plant which carries the seed of the plant.
When was the last time you had a seeded watermelon, grape, lemon, banana, tomato, orange?
Oh what modern irony, that in this heartless generation we should also produce fruit which bear no seed. Objects which have lost their very purpose.
We act as though gods, creating the world in our own image.

watermelon without seeds are no fun. grapes with seeds are annoying as hell, and apparently that's all they sell in korea, haha. i don't know if i've ever had a seedless tomato...
i do agree that it is a good metaphor for our culture/generation though (assuming that's what it was, yes? haha)
actually most tomatoes we see in stores are seedless
