Is anyone else participating in this? How are you doing it.
I have this pink band around my wrist, but I can still write and text.
I've never done this before. I feel like I should ask if there'd be any other way to do this. I'm open to suggestions.
Feels odd. I have all of my thoughts bottled up until the afternoon.
[i]Hello, thank you for taking the time to read this.
I cannot speak today for I am participating in the Day of Silence. It is a day to recognize those who took or lost their lives due to the violence against the LGBTQ community. We are silent today to represent the voices that weren't heard; the voices that were silenced.[/i]
In case anyone was wondering.

^Relevant^ OT: Sounds quite good! I've been silent all day, because nobody is home, and I'm not talking to my cat...

What the hell is the Q?

Bearbeitet von Pfhortnite: 4/21/2013 2:27:03 PMNah. It's a sunday and all I'm doing is meeting up with a friend, so that would be pretty pointless to not talk.

This sounds so pointless. I can't see what doing this accomplishes.
-
-blam!-ing lul at the people who did this.
-
At my school, the participants wore purple tape around their mouths. I laughed at all of them.
-
This is one of the most pointless things I've heard. It's basically an exercise in self-gratification - you feel good doing something which is in fact, nothing.
-
Quite frankly, I couldn't care less about those people. And nobody who is doing something productive participates in it.

POOP BUTT TITTIES TITTIES TITTIES

first time i've heard of this, care to tell me more?
-
yeah ... nope. I never do day of silence things. I'd rather live normal than look silly.

Already broke it.

What a stupid day.
-
Bearbeitet von BerzerkCommando: 4/19/2013 2:14:41 PMI support the community, but this is just dumb. Not talking for a day is not going to do anything at all. This is just pointless.
-
The hell is this? This won't do shit. How is someone supposed to relate silence to LGTB? Stupid.
-
A day of silence accomplishes nothing. You're just wasting your time.
-
This is the first I've heard of it. So, no, I'm not participating.
-
Nope, not talking won't accomplish anything for me and I have work anyway. *hums same love*
-
I have a job to do, silence will not be acceptable.
-
Anyone know what the Q stands for in LGBTQ?
-
No thanks. It's too inconvenient for me not to talk. I have school and work today. I don't necessarily have to talk during class, as it's mostly lecture-based but my job revolves around coworkers communicating. I'd probably get fired if I took a vow of silence. No thanks. I'll honor the LGBT community by being open-minded to them whenever I come across them.

Bearbeitet von TheBrandingIron: 4/19/2013 1:20:57 PMNever heard about it. Also, this gets in the way of productivity. And, I think it is a bit stupid because more can be done for their community that would require talking. But to each his own.
