How do you steal the thunder from a couple of hate merchants on campus?

Why, with a banana costume and Rick Astley music, of course.

(A little something to brighten everyone's evening if the elections don't shake out as they should)

I saw 1 of BabyGirl 1SBM's best friends walk into the scene at the 5:27 mark. I had to look at it a couple times; but, Yep ... it was him.

back in the 1980s it was always in spring. Students made the most of it. The frat rats and dorm guys brought lawn chairs and coolers full of beer and sandwiches to make a day of heckling them nonstop; I swear they rotated in shifts. The hippies from the Co-op housing would dress in drag and heckle them. I would stop inbetween classes and heckle them. EVERYONE relentlessly heckled them. A splendid time was had by all the students.

Brother Jed was there, screaming at people, and a guy in a gorilla suit came up and handed out slices of fruit candy to the crowd.
