I read the title and all I wanted to do was to fake-knee-jerk-didn't-read-the-article-tirade about how the liberal media is killing this country and how they already have February.
It would have been hilarious, let me tell you.
But, since I'm here, I might as well try to be serious and address the actual article.
Um, yeah, good luck with that, Anonymous.
I mean, I realize that you're, ideally, a blob of people with no real power structure, and that structure lends itself to hit-or-miss ideas as much as any other, but come on...
Shutting down child pornography rings, that's a great and fantastic use of your time and energies.
Trying to convince people to stop buying pomegranate? For a month?
Wow, that's so hilariously optimistic that I just peed myself a bit from laughing.
That's not even to mention the fact that their list of things to boycott is hardly exhaustive.
Off of the top of my head, I don't see anything about canceling Netflix or Hulu subscriptions.
Not like it matters.
Even were this boycott to gather enough support, a month is hardly enough time to make a real impact.
If someone doesn't buy the newest album in March, they'll most likely just buy it in April.
I want these bills to die too, but one month isn't going to kill an ingrained system of corruption.
