Volunteer (interrupting two talking teens): Hi, would you like to sign this petition?
Girl: What is it about?
Volunteer: It's basically making the pamphlet about all the different voting issues shorter and easier to understand.
Girl: I like to read.Why would you want to do that?
Volunteer: To make it easier to understand, and help more people learn about the issues.
Girl: So there would be less information?
Volunteer: Yes! It would be just the basic information, to get more people to vote who didn't before because it was so hard.
Girl(Loudly): So basically, you're telling me you want to dumb down the voting help guide, so that people who were too stupid to understand it before, will be more likely to vote? No, I won't sign. If they give up because it's too hard to read, good. Like hell I want them to vote.
Volunteer (shocked) :...Don't you want everyone to vote?
Girl: Hell, no. I want smart people to vote. I'm not signing some petition to help stupid people take part in making major decisions.Why do you think we're at war?
Volunteer (backing away): Well, uh...Ok. Have a nice day..(
Girl to friend: I love fucking with those guys. I hope that keeps her up tonight.
Friend: You are so going to hell.
Girl: That's nothing. I thought the polar bear dude earlier was going to cry by the time I was done with him.

I think I'm in love. I screw with those guys all the time too.
I was going to say what blog said. I think I love that girl a little.
Yeah, this was excellent.
Ok, so she was just fucking with someone trying to do something decent. I hate that. (Also, stupid people are going to vote anyhow, so might as well try to bring them up to speed a bit.) People under 30 seem to think that everyone else exists for their entertainment. Snot.
That's frakking hilarious. You made me spit out dribbles of my morning tea dammit.
I had one of the "impartial voter registration" people running away by telling him he could discuss Obama with me if I could discuss Ron Paul with him. Works every time.
