So there I am sitting in the movies watching "J. Edgar", the new DiCaprio flik re: sick paranoid creep Hoover and a pre film commercial comes on. Something being advertised with protesters and signs and marching and chanting. Some dumbass product which I either can't or won't remember. But my point is, the audience in Greenwich is filled with trust fund babies, banksters, lawyer types and the "dockers crowd", as I like to call them. And they're havin' a pleasant night at the movies while you guys are out freezing your asses off for "The Cause". They're not suffering. They're not even thinking about you. And trust me, they ain't losing sleep over your cold runny noses. So, what say you all go home, start showering, get some hot soup and sleep in your nice warm beds again? You made your point. At least Madison Avenue heard you, eh?
We're just getting started. In the end, believe me, they'll take notice.
Ugh! You gave money to the Hollywood elites, and to Leonardo DeCRAPio??

Points and bumps for everybody! Cheers!
Seriously.
It's 35 degrees where I live. It's a short ride to NYC from here so I don't know, probably about the same temp there? And I just came from a showing of J. Edgar as well. (Spent the first fifteen minutes trying not to see that it's just DiCaprio in liver spot makeup but that's beside the point.)
35 degrees here but in my house in my big, corporation-made recliner in front of my large TV with a delicious craft beer in hand and thrilled that there's no alarm clock set for tomorrow so I can lounge in my big space foam mattress under a thick comforter probably made by some textile giant, I wonder how comfy those blue tarps must be tonight. Bang those drums faster, might generate some heat. Hahaha!
The makeup on Armie Hammer was awful! He looked like Dustin Hoffman as a 100 yr old man in "Little Big Man"!
I'm surrounded by Corporatism too. Cozy and comfy. DOW up 260, life is good
