2. Go outside
3. Write 'Revolution 5th November'
4. Repeat

[Widerstand]

but why?

[hatzel]

but why?

Because 5th November is only four days until the anniversary of the declaration of the republic in the November revolution, isn't that obvious? :rolleyes:

[RGacky3]

pee your name in the snow ... you'd be doing more good.

[Viet Minh]

but why?

Because it will be amusing to watch another Revolution in America. :thumbup1:

November the 5th is incidental, its Guy Fawkes day which is an anniversary of a failed revolution in the UK, and also used in that piece of shit film 'V for Vendetta'.

[hatzel]

Remember remember, the 5th of November! And I totally forgot...:lol:

[RGacky3]

Yup, because what people most definately think when they pass sharpie stuff on a wall is "I should probably make major life and death decisions based on whats written here."

People are gonna pass "5th of November revolution" and think "Damn it he/she is right, I'm not going to work today, I'm gonna join the revolution that consists of a dude and a sharpie."

Its not a srs attempt to start a revolution (although it would be cool if it did) it just a troll, hopefully if enough people wrote it others would copy (as is human nature) and create a media scare, especially if seen all over the country. Why so negative Gacky? :(

Isn't that sorta what the graffitis in May 68 did though? I mean obviously not really, but, you know?

Cool, I never even heard of the 1968 thing. But yeah graffiti can be a powerful tool, available to all and with the potential to communicate ideas to a wide audience.

You know that Guy Fawkes wanted to overthrow the English Protestant monarchy to establish a Catholic theocracy, right?

[TheCultofAbeLincoln]

This is fucking stupid.


You're fucking stupid.

Now go away.

Yes I used to post on /b/ far too much, I stopped when they introduced the captcha, I'm too lazy for that shit. I posted operation sharpie a few times but not much came of it.. :(

Yes

[#FF0000]

4chan is the worst

[thesadmafioso]

Oh yes, who could forget the havoc that the Bolshevik Red Guards brought to Petrograd once they seized the sharpie supplies of the city. We shall yet spread the revolution by the point of a a sharpie comrades! To arms! Or permanent markers, I suppose.

[hatzel]

I bet it would hurt to be sharpied in the eye...

[thesadmafioso]

Indeed. I can just imagine the Provisional Government fleeing the Winter Palace from a mob armed with the immense power of sharpies. A terrifying sight that would certainly prove to be.

...unless you'd already been sharpied...

[MapOfYourHead]

Should I scribble out all the swatiskas and profanity before doing it, as to not confuse the populace over revolutionary intention?

Do not mock, comrade, for the pen is mightier than the sword!

nah we'd probably need the nutcase right-wing militias to help us overthrow the Government, then we can kill them later. Bush is first against the wall though!

Perhaps when it is actually being put to good use. I am not sure if graffiti qualifies as such though.

Sounds like a new tendency... sharpyists.

[hatzel]

Forkliftism-sharpyism, you say?

[Tablo]

Forkliftism-sharpyism, you say?
Ooh, new tendency. I'm excited!

[Dimentio]

Write "I did not write this", or "I didn't take it" instead
