RAoK/SAoB: the Random Acts of Kindness and Senseless Acts of Beauty Task 1 by star5, Oliver X

May 14th, 2006 3:38 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: Purchase a dozen roses (or daisies, or other flower of your choice). Distribute to strangers in a public place, who look deserving or in need of a flower. Offer no explanation.

Don't forget to document.

Oliver purchased two bouquets of tulips.. white for Oliver, red for Star5.. which also happen to be the U of A colors. Included with some of the flowers we handed out were a little slip of paper which said "we must defeat pirate monkey". We encountered a variety of reactions. Most people were happy and excited by the flowers, some were skeptical and some just turned us down. Reactions to the message on the paper were mostly of confusion. One person asked who pirate monkey was. Oliver responded, "A bad bad person".

It was a successful mission which lifted the moods of many people, Star5 included. One woman said we made her day.. she proceeded to get into her VW bug and find her flower holder.. and informed us that she'd never had a real flower in it before. The police officer politely declined our offer.

Star5 left her two extra pirate monkey slips in random bouqets in the store..

who says we aren't getting along?

though i do think it was you who declared war. though i realize it was directed at oliver.

sorry about the name, i let oliver tell me it was pirate monkey. that's what i get for listening to oliver. in all future force gathering it will be spelled properly.

you war mongers, you!

i declared no war! all i did was pick up the bloody gauntlet after it had been thrown. (see Oliver's "ransom")
i'm all about peace and love and getting more points than you...

I still think this is all an elaborate Aesthematic plot

The escalating war facade and debate surrounding it is only to distract us from the fact that it's driving Aesthematics to stockpile more Score, expanding the lead they had over any other team.

Equivalenistas, Humanitarian Crisisters, BART PAtricians, Biometas, tend to me with your eyes and minds! We must pick up the pace to prevent an Aesthematic majority in the tabulation of Score! Produce! Produce well! And procure votes where they count!

ha!
