Ok, still not quite off the political horse... but this post is kinda fun. While I know the protests over the passage of California's Prop 8 (and the other anti-gay measures that passed on election day) are a serious matter, can I still be at least amused by some of the protest signs? I always say don't piss off the gays... as wit/humor is often our biggest weapon!
Here are some of my favorites lines from the protest signs, many from the NYC protest pictures that I saw on various websites this morning. In some cases, I am sure my very smart readers can figure out whether a man or woman was holding up a particular sign.
Chickens 1, Gays 0
Britney Spears, 55 Hours! Me, Never?
My gay friends deserve to be unhappy too!
So... when can I vote on your marriage?
Keep your magic undies off my civil rights!
God created the rainbow so I could catwalk to heaven
Gay is the new black
You have 2 wives, I want 1 husband
Oh well, I wasn't using my civil rights anyways
My rights are not granted by your God
Protect Marriage: Ban the Electric Slide
My mom is a little bit country, my other mom is a little bit rock 'n roll
I love my gay Mormon husband
I'm too old for this shit! Equal rights now!
Focus on your own family
I didn't ask her to "civil union" me
Did you cast a ballot or a stone?
Would you rather I married your daughter?

I hadn't seen the "ballot or stone" one before. Snap!

My favorites were:
(Outside the Mormon Temple in Westwood) "Give me the head of Donny Osmond", and "My two moms can best up your 14 wives!"

I saw one at the Philly rally that I loved
"Cause straight people *clearly* got it right."

You missed (in SF) "Jesus had two daddies."

A woman in SF had a sign: "Think outside my box."
