Some college friends of my single-handedly changed my school's mailbox access policy when they stuffed people's boxes with a flier that contained a survey asking questions about the reader's clown-fucking habits.

eth, the clown joke is even better. I spent an hour-long car ride telling it to some friends once, and they almost didn't talk to me for the rest of the night.

PinkStainlessTail, that's something to be proud of.
