You guys, on the street corners, fundraising for a well known charity that empowers frauleins to change the world.
Good on ya!
I appreciate your cheerfulness when you tell me to have a nice day, as I rush past you. I realize you have a job to do that only lasts for a few weeks at a time. But I wish that organization would find a better way to fundraise. It is hard enough to jostle past the panhandlers on Spring Garden Road.
Please go away! —Babette

  1. Uh-oh.. a Dal-esque lynch mob is forming OB. Go. Now. Run to the airport and get on any plane, departing now. We will distract them with balls of yarn thanks to their natural instincts but that only works for a short time. Armed with cigar cutters… AHHHHHH! RUN!

  2. I just like how THEY are in HER way, there’s no way she could be fucking up their mojo by walking right in front of the fucking presentation they are trying to put on, just fucking rude if you ask me!

  3. Their on the fucking sidewalk, Hazardous, how can you not walk in front of a presentation….fly?

  4. BABETTE RUSHES PAST

    “Good on ya. I appreciate your cheerfulness when you tell me to have a good day, as I rush past you.” Babette

    But why, if Babette is in favour of the “frauleins” changing the world, does she rush past those the “panhandlers” working to do just that without contributing to their cause? Is she an agent for the “other side” or is she just a hypocrite?

    A pleasure as always,

    Cheerio!

  5. I assume OB is talking about the binder people. I believe they work for a third party company that is hired by charities to raise funds. They’ve been using the same approach for years so it must work. I’ve never stopped to see just what it is they show people in the binders. I have always just said “Sorry.” and kept walking when they ask,”Do you have a moment to talk about *insert charity name*. I don’t doubt the charities are worthwhile but I already support several of my own choosing. And, while I am kind of enured to it, I can understand why the OB finds Spring Garden a bit of a gauntlet of requests for money.

  6. Earbuds. Plug ’em into your electronic device and away you go. Discourages anyone from talking to you while you are out.

  7. froggy man, as a feminist of decades I find your balls of yarn antic VERY demeaning and insulting to me

    oh look! a puppy!

  8. Hey Mod. Some captain you are! Falling asleep at the wheel again allowing these marketing ploys to grace this great board.

  9. Most people with XX chromosones are annoying and blame “da patriarchy” for everything, even for them being unattractive and unable to get dates for dis Friday.
