I was writing this little bridge paper for a class about some kind of exposure to a different set of ideals and blah blah blah, the context doesn't even matter that much.
So I went full bore and went to this little right wing rally/meet and motherfucking greet at a local park near the university.
Despite the heavy handed-ness of a lot of people, it went alright.
Everyone was talkative and friendly and curious about what I had to say and I was curious about what they had to say, so there was some serious curious back and forth kind of thing going on.
Met this local business owner named *Formally Greg Now Mud*. *Formally Greg Now Mud* was a nice enough dude. Ran a shop downtown and I tried to get deeply interested in the nuances of the effects of local economic politics, but my frame isn't that steady. I felt pretty good walking out of there actually.
There was a rally a few days later for the dumb dems, protesting a mildly prominent repubbie figure coming in to speak. So what whatever, alright. I think demonstrating is the height of lovely.
So I'm standing next to a friend of mine and she's wearing this bawdy gaudy pseudo-uniform and holding a silly sign and we're talking and *Formally Greg Now Mud* walks by with a little posse of pubs, many of those of which I met and delightedly conversed with a few days prior.
I wave, hey. They wave hey, kind of half assedly.
*Formally Greg Now Mud*: Hey Boognish, what are you doing here?
Boognish: Oh, you know (easy going laugh)
*Formally Greg Now Mud: No, really. What are you doing here?
Boognish:Standing. And holding my friend's sign.
*Formally Greg Now Mud: Didn't anything I talked to you about a few days ago stick? (this guy is like thirty also) Get the fuck out of here. *Walks to police officer, points at my friend, myself and the group behind me* These people have no right to stand here on this street corner. *Officer doesn't do shit* Mud and his buddies walk away and leave a parting middle finger or eight for good measure.
I thought it was funny though.
I think party politics is funny though.
I think being an asshole is funny though.
I don't think this scene is my scene though.
I don't give enough damns and I take even less.
I thought that you should have stripped naked in order to manifest your frustrations over party politics. You know, to show the naked truth, or something, you know?
I don't really care about politics and what I'm about to say doesn't really pertain to anything here, but I really liked that cascading effect on your last 5 sentences.

This made me laugh.
Everything's intentional.
Aesthetics are aesthetically pleasing.
I was actually kinda hoping it was
