Why Can't We Be Friends?

In a previous post I mentioned how people protest across the street from where I work. I have learned protesters are selective as to who can join their cause.

One of the customers at work sounds just like ray ramano. Whenever he talks I try not to giggle. Anywhoo, he was waiting for his receipt when he started laughing. He points out one protester standing by himself away from the group. This protester showed up to every single protest no matter what the cause. During the election he was all for clinton, then obama and then clinton, and then obama. The one cause he has stuck to is that the earth has been visited by aliens from 12 different planets. I have named him Clinbama.

I watched Clinbama for a few mintues. He looked like a man (that was a good MAD tv skit), a short dark haired male, middle aged, glasses, green tweed suit, a little on the heavy side.

The other protesters would move away every time he took a step towards them. Finally they formed a circle away from him as if to say, "You can't play with us Clinbama. Go away". Clinbama, holding his lone sign, looked to the ground and shuffled his feet.

Kinda sad when even the outcasts don't want you.
