First time to go to Obama headquarters for me today!
I found it quite easily!

But unfortunately I've decided to withdraw my support of Obama and just stay home on election day. Here's why: I had this great idea to use body paint and make myself a walking Obama advertisement and first of all, they all looked at me weird, then when I repeated my awesome idea, they tried to be all polite about "uh, no thanks" and "that probably wouldn't be good" except for that one weirdo guy who said he'd do the paint and his apartment was just around the corner! Perv! An Obama Perv!

Well, I'm relentless if nothing else, so I started repeating my idea, only more loudly and I'm really worried about Obama winning because they not only rejected it, but the head dude started talking about if I don't calm down, they're gonna have to call the police.

What the fuck ever! Apparently the Obama campaign doesn't want good ideas! It would look good! I mean, do they want people to vote for them or not? I can't help it if I come up with such awesome ideas. I even have all the blue body paint and everything.

Whatevs. Now what am I going to do with all the body paint?

3. Do you have any idea how much all that body paint cost?
I had to buy gallons because they said you need two or three coats for it to really look right.

:rofl: Wha? :rofl:


You can do like my wife "Arctic Jodie" did. She had the lady at the nail salon paint the Obama logo on her big toenail. She calls them her "toe-bamas". I will take a picture of them later and post them.

4. ROFLMAO!
Seriously though, I've led numerous door-to-door canvasses and I've had to (gently) tell people that I couldn't allow them to knock on doors because of what they were wearing. I'm not a nitpicker or a fashionista but canvassers are representing your candidate and face piercings, visible tats, tube tops, and hippie attire are just not going to cut it in the Phoenix suburbs.

11. Hmm...
I don't see what the Celtic warrior tradition has to do with this, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt because your name is Erin.

14. Blue for Obama!
Edited on Sat Sep-13-08 08:28 PM by Erin Elizabeth
The actual names "Obama/Biden" was going to be on my ass and I think that's the part where I lost them on the idea.

You could always turn your boobs into headlights with the paint.

10. I went to my local Obama headquarters with my favorite dildo...
...and they kept looking at that instead of at my highly-intelligent face. They didn't even ask for my phone number or name, but the cop they called did.
