    I just remembered, I also have one of those little Maoist caps with the red star that my dad brought me back from his youth group's trip to China. Does it add ridiculousness points if I just keep it around as a sort-of-ironic ornament rather than wearing it?

    Wow...I feel like some apolitical non-leftist loser after looking at this thread! The only remotely leftist stuff I have are two books: Mother by Maxim Gorky and The Communist Manifesto, both of which my parents gave me for Christmas.
    You shouldn't feel any less of a leftist for not having stuff just as no one should be made to feel like they are a lifestylist for having a few things. It's a personal choice at the end of the day I don't think any of us should be looking down on anyone for wearing or not wearing something as well as having or not having something.

    Exactly. Some people like to collect nicknacks, some don't. To me, this is like collecting stamps, coins, or comic books, only the difference is that everybody here is a leftist of some stripe or another and quite passionate about being one... Hence, the natural predilection for paraphernalia with hammers, sickles, circle As, and sabcats on it.
    O, why should wrath be mute, and fury dumb?
    I am no baby, I, that with base prayers
    I should repent the evils I have done:
    Ten thousand worse than ever yet I did
    Would I perform, if I might have my will;
    If one good deed in all my life I did,
    I do repent it from my very soul.

    To the OP: lots of people think I am ridiculous for a variety of reasons: the music I listen to, the way I look, my ideas of a better world, my shoes, my chaotic mind, my cardigan, my vast knowledge on several subjects, my drinking habits, my bi sexuality, my dog and many many more. Do not let them get to you. Be your own person.

    all I have... lulz. I don't have the spanish one, these 2 were free because they were deemed "misprints" so I'll have to buy the Spanish version. omgz personal info you can see my 2% of my glasses




    I just moved, hence the naked walls.
    I saw millions of people working.
    Not for themselves but for someone else.
    I saw millions of people doing.
    Not what they themselves want to do.
    But what someone else wants them to do.

    The only leftist thing I have is a shirt my cousin made for me. It has a red and black flag, various quotes like "Property is theft", and RATM and SOAD because we both like those bands. I guess he got bored one day, had a few plain white t's, two markers, and decided to do that. Sounds like what Agent Ducky does a lot too lol.

    We claim to live and die equal, the way we were born: we want this real equality or death; that’s what we need.
    And we’ll have this real equality, at whatever price. Unhappy will be those who stand between it and us! Unhappy will be those who resist a wish so firmly expressed.
    The French Revolution was nothing but a precursor of another revolution, one that will be bigger, more solemn, and which will be the last.

    I haven't made a shirt yet, but I really want to. I have a shirt that I wanna spraypaint, I just don't know what to spraypaint yet.

    Word to the wise: Until you get your can control down, you're best off using a stencil. This will help you get a feel for things in the beginning and, if you want, do your design in negative space... which to me is pretty dope on a T.

    Someone should always pm immediately when Maine Coons are brought up. I love Maine Coon cats and we used to know an orange maine coon with white paws, but he passed away.
    I once saw a classified ad in my local paper that read:

    Wanted: Maine Coon Cat, I ran over my last one with my brush hog and miss him very much
    also FYI a brush hog is a type of heavy duty mower used on fields with lots of, you guessed it brush.

    I'm definitely gonna use stencils, lol. I know I would fail majorly otherwise. Ok, and negative space as in the design is what's not spraypainted and everything else is?

    Yup. Personally, I think going that route looks more "street," for lack of a better word.
