I have my own pair and I'll take yours,too. You're an idiot, so I won't be displaying them with pride in my nad collection -- just keeping them where they can't disturb the world with creepy jerk gamete shenanigans.

So, I'm curious: in your less than panoramic view, what is the point of political dialogue and protest? To show others how smart, tough, & funny we are, or to persuade others to join us in accomplishing something? I was solidly on the side of "funny" re this performance until it became apparent that any good they would do is overwhelmed by the fact that they gave in to an impulse to bully someone on their own side. That is incredibly stupid - and unforgivably short-sighted and mean. I suspect you and the author would have tantrums if given bad directions or otherwise belittled or purposely misled by others.

Situationism: you can do better at it than this.

@blrg: Oh, shut up and grow a pair. Her little feelings were hurt? Oh no!! Give me a break: She should be embarrassed for not understanding what everyone around her knew was a joke. People on this site can be prone to worshipping pussies, but not in that context.

I don't get the point of being mean to the woman who didn't get the point of your satire. Was your purpose, which I perhaps erronously assume is to entertain while you point out that the Rpublican party and candidates are bought & bossed by big money, served by making her feel bad and inviting others to ridicule her?

Maybe her point was to provide your group with an opportunity to explain and persuade explicitly and kindly rather than assume that everyone who votes has the same cognitive flexibility and sense of humor with which you credit yourselves.

Many of the anti-war protesters (according to my family members there) didn't even see/hear the violence caused by the anarchists who unfortunately marched with them before splintering off to cause trouble. There have been weekly peace demonstrations at other locations in The Cities for years, which stay, you know, peaceful.

Lobbyists for McCain is a brilliant idea.

If the State Fair sucked, you did it wrong, but don't worry, just get a Minnesotan to take you next time. I'll do it, if I'm home. Did you miss the seed art or something?
