HAHA easy there cartman!!

Ok well since nobody is responding maybe ill try and get this thread rolling.

One of my favorite comfest moments was when I got into a discussion about communism at the communist tent. I was just wondering around and stubled upon these guys handing out this wierd newspaper with all kinds of propaganda and "news". And me being drunk and a history major thought it would be fun to mess with them a little bit.

So I started arguing with them that there has never been a communist society and that its impossible to have one. And to my surprise some of them were very well informed and not as crazy as I thought. They were basically just saying that there are still some good principles and we need to apply them to our society. It goes to show you can't judge a book by its cover because they were actually relatively normal and decent people and I hope to meet them again this weekend.

In general I think its just fun to talk to people who have a different outlook on life nomatter whether you agree or not. And comfest is a great oppurtunity to meet people from different walks of life. I look forward to tonight/tomorrow because I never know who I might meet.
