if i get a job i lose my unemployment benefits.

i'd rather just sit around for the next couple years and collect a check

Troll.

nope, friend of mine has been collecting unemployment for 2 years now.

i was ineligible for those benefits, so i took the first job i could get, which was about a month to two months of filling out applications and interviewing.

Oh, it's sarcasm.

I got it. It's not only funny in and of itself, it's true and I've noticed it plenty in the week I've been posting here.

Sarcasm and irony don't carry well on comment blogs. People take you literally.

[-] 1 points by Goatsy (28) 13 years ago

i realized that, so i posted a new one with a better title.

Yes I clicked it. What I mean is anyone who reads your title will take it literally as a critiicism of the protesters. I think you were really criticising the people in the photo instead.

cool username btw

[-] 1 points by Goatsy (28) 13 years ago

yes, i definitely was! :) how do you change the title or delete? :( is that possible?

[-] 1 points by DirtyHippie (200) 13 years ago

Once it's posted thats it. I don't see any way to change or delete the threads that I posted. Not a big deal when you compare with some of the garbage that people are throwing up here
