Pissin' for Peace

Posted by

Like yourself, I was in shock and awe when I heard that some folks had organized a 'vomit in' in our fair city of San Francisco. Did anybody bother to think about the feelings of all of those anorexic people out there? They've got nothing to contribute to the cause! Normally, I wouldn't bring up such points, but I watched last night (in horror and disgust) as two skinnie-minnies gorged themselves at an expensive restaurant. I overheard one of 'em saying to the other: “Fifteen years of starving myself for no apparent reason… and those damn protesters made me think differently.” What has this world come to when we have people with eating disorders changing their lives because of street barfers? The homeless aren't taking this lying down, either. They've decided to organize a “pissing protest” – wherein they (the homeless) will be allowed to pee on toilets until this war ends. Notice I didn't use the word 'in'? Even they couldn't expect their aim to be perfect, having avoided polished porcelain for the better part of two years. But maybe that will change now that people are marching on Market? Maybe. Just maybe.
