1. Great idea; but it makes the protesters look like nutcases:

"Weed not greed"? "Hallo surfer"? "Pokemon for peace"?

With all the great, REAL protest signs out there, could the makers not figure out anything more substantive yet still funny?

On edit: Ok, that's harder than I thought. Just looked through a few threads and found the slogans below; but they perhaps seem too serious; although maybe not, if carried by the same batch of characters:

"99% Chance You Are One of Us"

"Look, Mom, No Future"

"The Show Must Go OFF"

"Help Bring Democracy to the US"

"In the US, the Bank Robs YOU"

What do you think?

4. Not all who do family history are "old fogies" -

- and many are quite tech savvy. I doubt they'd take the time to "eat their lunch" but it sure won't make any Occupy friends or bring any understanding or sympathy to the occupy cause. I would think it would have pretty much the OPPOSITE effect.

And, yes, it looks just plain silly and middle-school juvenile.

3. Note:

The protesters change when you re-load.

Also, the post at http://fffff.at/occupy-the-internet says, if you'd like to contribute animated GIF occupiers, you can leave URLs in the comment thread of the post, and they'll be called up for duty. Note: images should have transparent backgrounds.
