#OWSPickupLines: What time do you get off not working? 1 Comment

Posted 08:03 AM ET

OK, who said you can't have fun at the expense of annoying protestors from another era exercising their legitimate rights of free speech by exercising your own?

Perhaps only with the spontaneity and immediacy of Twitter and its home-made hashtag labels — as in #OWS for Occupy Wall Street — could the reaction be so instant, funny and political.

The latest craze exploding on Twitter through the night is #OWSPickupLines, which makes fun from the right of the perceived hippie-critical protestors as a major source of laughter for those not participating in the anti-establishment fervor sweeping assorted spots across the country the last few weeks.

Here's a selection of some overnight #OWSPickupLines with a link down below to many others:

@jpodhoretz What time do you get off from not working?

@mdrache Can I have my mom's debit card buy you a drink?

@adamsbaldwin So, do you not work here?

@derekahunter I don't know why I'm here either. We have so much in common!
