How to lose my vote

How to lose my vote

I just looked out on my front yard, and was surprised to see a sign promoting someone's candidacy for State Representative. Now, it being my yard, I'd expect that any signs that are placed there need to be placed by me. Apparently, I'm wrong. So I figured - seeing as it's his sign - perhaps the fella running for State Representative owns my house. However, after taking a couple looks around, I realized this house is filled with my stuff, and therefore, is my house.

So, I can only assume he's a vandal. And, not being supportive of a pro-vandalism platform, I guess I'll just have to make it a point to NOT vote for this jackass.

Well, I understand where you're coming from, but I imagine it wasn't the senatorial candidate himself who placed said sign in your front yard. More likely it was an over-zealous citizen who took it upon him- or herself to spread the good news of his candidacy to your household. Though I'm pretty sure that if you knew who did it, you could nail their ass for (if nothing less) trespassing.

Dude, quit yer belly achin'. You're a graphic designer, get out there and alter it.

Then take that piece around the neighborhood at night - bang - it's over for Gray thanks to the above mentioned over-zealous twit.

Leave it to Mike to show you the silver-lining.

i'm sorry to have to tell you this, but that wasn't a campaign sign. it was a crudely made grave marker. now you'll have to deal with the grumpy spectre of a politico as long as you live in that house. good move, you sacrilegious plank.

Just blow up a picture of the Kennedy assassination and stick it in your yard. You can use that Misfits album cover...

Quick and easy way to let people know that you are not easily swayed by political markers? Rainbow flag or windsock. By proudly displaying your allegiance to the rainbow, you are telling candidates and neighbors alike, mess with me and you'll be the recipient of some fabulous form of catty revenge. That and you will avoid those pesky army recruiters. Fun for all!

Kevin. I've never given you a word of advice, and I've had my reasons, but I'm making an exception today. I don't care what the problem is, I don't care what anyone tells you, windsocks are not the answer.

I don't know... Rachael was on to something - ever since I put up that rainbow windsock I've met a bunch of new neighbors - Lance, Chester, Conrad... that guy with the terrier who's name I forget...
