My protest name is Princess (real name withheld).

I am a 29 year-old unemployed single mom with 3 skool age children. I am stuck in government housing and living on welfare. I have not worked since 2008.

I have Masters degree in Women’s Studies from a prestigious university but can’t find work in my field. I have applied for numerous jobs since 2008 but have been unable to find one. I find it reprehensible that so many employers won’t give me a second look because I have a nose ring and blue hair. That’s discrimination, pure and simple.

I have $99,000 in student loans which I will probably never be able to pay back. I am now disgusted with Obama even though I supported him enthusiastically in 2008. However, if Obama were to cancel all student loans, I would probably vote for him again. Presently, I prefer Dennis Kucinnich. (He is sooooo sexy.)

Speaking of men, none of my children’s fathers will pay child support. I am so disgusted with them. The ChairWomyn of my Women’s Studies Department said that men secretly love assertive, feminist women. If that’s true, why can’t I find a man that will stick around after the sex is over?

Me and my children have sacrificed so much in the past 3 years. I cannot afford the copay for my medical marijuana to treat my fidgety leg syndrome. My parents bought me a Prius for the birthday, but I can’t afford to buy gas for it. My children have gone from drinking Sunny Delight to imitation fruit juice. Where will it all end?

I think corporations are the root of all of society’s evils. They take so much and give so little in return.

I’d like to right more, but I have to get to Walmart before it closes.

Peace out.

I am the 99%.

Yeah my name is Ernie. I’m twenty something and was having a hard time finding a good party till this crowd came along. I gotta tell you they have the good **** too!

Anyway I think they’re protesting something. Feels good making a difference and being a part of change. Stinking evil banks and their war! We’re going to beat the crap out of one of these Eikman’s tonight after he comes out. That’ll show him the power of the peace movement.

Forgot to mention the funnier part, the ar-15.com forum member who made the parody troll on the tumblr website was picked up by some other dude mad at the OWS people, and he went on a “when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor” rant against the guy...

I am a decent person. My children had HBO and Showtime and Disney, but the cable company found the splice and I now owe $5,000 in back charges. I was going to write a lengthy email to them, but my neighbor changed his wireless password and now my kids don't have internet anymore.

I am the 99%.

"I am tired of needing all this money and having to go out and get it."

"I heard this woman who supported Barack Obama say she wasn't going to have to pay for her mortgage or gas if he was elected."

She's a 99%er, why not me?

I have evolved beyond having an age, although I was born in 27 years ago.

I have $165,949.95 in student loans to get my Doctorate in Extra-terrestrial communications. But with the budget cuts for NASA they aren’t hiring.

My medical insurance won’t cover the illnesses I contracted when I was abducted by aliens from the planet Stonepout. They are the fourth planet of the 6th star of the Pleiades group.

We need to provide amnesty to them so they can land an teach how life evolved without violence on their planet.

In wise preparation for their public landings I am making myself look like them. I have tattooed a third eye on my nose, split my tongue down the center, shaved my head, and implanted antennae on my scalp.

I have discovered that LSD helps me to tune in to their wave-length and understand the messages they beam to me.

It is a shame that someone with my qualifications continues to be rejected for any kind of employment. I live in a cardboard box under a bridge, waiting for them to arrive.

I am the 99%.

Peacy and Love and Tranquility and Good Vibes to all.

P.S. I just got a call from the 60s. They want me to send back my tie-dyed rainbow T-shirt, but I have to wash it first.

Hi, my name is Kim. I have 2 children and live in a very nice apartment, it costs too much but I’m not about to live where they don’t have a pool, work-out room and spa.

I left my hardworking husband because I just needed to enjoy my life. I’ve found the boyz in da hood and they know how to show a woman a good time but life has been hard for them and none of them have jobs.

I have gone bankrupt once but I still have those student loans to pay back so now I’m back in school to get my master’s and if they keep asking for payment I’ll have to go on to get my Phd.

Even with my degree I haven’t been able to get ahead and have had to work 4 hours a day, 4 days a week as a waitress for 10 years. I did have a full time job once but I tried to sue them when I tripped on the stairs and they fired me!

I only get $300 a month in food stamps and can hardly afford to feed my kids dinner every night, thank goodness they eat breakfast and lunch at school.

I’m getting my degree in education so I can work in the schools, I like the schedule and the pay and benefits are pretty good, the only real problem I see is that I HATE children, I don’t even like my own. My daughter is always whining that she only sees me a couple hours a week and I say good, you are learning to be independent. A lot of kids your age don’t know how to cook and clean and do laundry.

I am the 99%

Sing to the tune of "A Wand'ring Minstrel I" from Gilbert & Sullivan's "MIKADO"

An aging hippie I,
A thing of jeans and sandals
Of incense, musk and candles,
And posters from '69.
I play my 33's on a vintage turntable,
I smoke it when I'm able
I have an accomplished whine--
I have an accomplished whine.

Have you a protest march for me?
I'll march with you!
(Poooooowwwweerrr to the People!)
Give me a sign and I'll carry
a sign for you!
(pooooower to the peeeeeople!)
I'll take off all my clothes if it will make a point.
I'll do it for a joint to share with you----
(Pooooowwweeer to the peeeeople!)

But if a wall street protest is desired
I have communist slogans cut and dried
I haven't worked a day since I was fired
And sure could use some money on the side!
I have a bunch of signs already printed
By a local chapter of SEIU
And if you'll make a willing contribution
I'll be so glad to share my pinko signs with you!

(CHORUS) We wouldn't be surprised if he is getting paid By either Hoffa or the SEIU!

Or if you call for a local parade
That celebrates gay pride
I'll dress up like a raging queen
A leather boy with a smile serene
(Although I'm not one inside!)

(CHORUS)Yo Ho--He's a Ho--
(Although he's not one inside.)


To shout all day in the blistering sun
Might not be everyone's taste
But if you want some caterwauling done
And if you have the prerequisite sum
I'll ROLL in nuclear waste! Yo Ho!
And I'll even pretend it's fun!

(CHORUS) So jump up on the barricades,
we've got a ripe one here
Though his dome is chrome and his hair is grey
Still has his ponytail (in a way)
With a yo heave ho
With a yo heave ho,
and a Yo, Bro, Ho de Do fo dis Po Ho down on de Flo!


(Reprise) An aging hippie I
A thing of jeans and sandals
Of incense musk and candles
And posters from '69....
And posters from 69!

c 2005, 2011, ML/LTOS, from the opera "The Twenty First Century So Far"

After many job interviews, with no luck, I decided it must be because my blue hair made me look elderly.

So, I went back to my natural color.

The nose ring is a big plus - because I can change it with every holiday!

Now that I have figured it out, I may get hired as Dean of Celebrations at the college!

I am among the 99% that failed with blue hair.

I, like, thought, like going to college for , like, forever would, like, do some good so I could, like, have the cash and the time to, like, enjoy life because, like, you know, we are all just like the polar bears, you know, going to be , like, swimming around and gonna be eaten by, like, an orca or whatever or maybe a big jellyfish like I saw on TV once sting a guy and, man, it looked like is was really super painful and all that gets me so depressed that, like, I have a hard time getting up at 10 or 11 every morning to go to my job at White Castle where, like, they say I’m not a candidate for like a manager’s position and - shit I need a bigger piece of cardboard for my sign! Man, I am the 99% but I’ve like never been good at decimals so I don’t like know if that puts me in the big group.
