Pauperies antiquem face!



In the corner I have added the Yellow Wristband of the internet. I would encourage you to do the same, as I was encouraged by others.

I'm too busy to justify writing anything of substance.

Except that's me as a South Park character. If you want me to do one of you, leave a note in the comments and I'll post them here. I will give 5 points to anyone who has me make a character out of them.

Although, I will say that as someone who reads news to procrastinate, I read a lot of amusing, heartbreaking, uplifting, shocking and just generally interesting stories. But this is by far the most badass thing I have ever read in my entire fucking life.

Today's Question:
What is the French name for the plant that Alexander the Great is credited for introducing to Europe? (10 Points)

I hate wrist bands. In fact, you have inspired me to write a full post on how much I hate wristbands. But here is the gist of it: if you (and by you I mean anyone who wears those stupid wristbands) want to end poverty so much, sell everything you own and give the money to the needy. Then spend the rest of your life committed to giving away everything you own to the poor. Otherwises, stop pretending to care so that you can sleep well at night.

I care. Just not enough to do anything other than 'raise awareness'. Plus, the little banner totally matches the colours on my blog.

What did you write on mine that needed to be deleted?

Let the battle ensue.

Uh...I just want to be a South Park Character. As for the wristbands- I find it similarly disgusting that people wear them as a fashion fad, but if they generate profits to be used for alleviating poverty, I'm all for it. A hypocrite's dollar buys just as much as the next guy's, and a whole lot more than no dollar.

You know you can all go create your own damn South Park characters:

Or you could go to the much more superior
South Park Character generator


Regardless, that's not the point of this little exercise. It's to see someone else's version of you. To see what clothes they would pick you to wear, what your hair looks like and just how different someone imagines you from how you would look and how distinct you can be as a character.

It is a concept some refer to as 'fun'.

It doesn't.

And Sam: of course it's fair. It makes Tyler and Mike work that much harder.

no, i really don't get it. Are you talking about real wristbands? (like one's a person would wear on their wrist?)

I think I missed something...

Chrissy,
I want to be a South Park character too. But I think when you're a south park character you should look more like an Anne Geddes Baby.
