    @dissentingopinion: Maybe they'll be up until then, like Christmas decorations that go up right after Thanksgiving?

    Don't forget that they shut down Twitter. It's evil genius.


    HOW CAN THE PEOPLE RISE UP WITHOUT THE APPROPRIATE HASHTAG?!

    When they try the Umbrellas Of Mystery one in London, it seems to make a lot more sense.


    Try Massive Fuckoff Visors, China. The 80's-retro vibe is sooo appropriate for this occasion!

    Two words, nuclear fucking weapons, ok? Russia, Germany, Romania, they can have all the democracy they want. They can have a big democracy cake walk right through the middle of Tienamen Square and it won't make a lick of difference because we've got the bombs, ok?
