Nothing says badass quite like wearing makeup with your bros, exposing yourselves and your friends to unnecessary danger with no upside, inconveniencing the public, and shoplifting!

Sounds pretty cool to me.

>exposing yourselves and your friends to unnecessary danger with no upside

Moderate risk taking has been considered badass/cool/rock and roll/whatever for quite a while. Also how big really, is the risk of riding in a giant group of mostly cyclists, doing a few wheelies or whatever?

>inconveniencing the public

oh no they blocked a road or two for a bit on a Saturday afternoon

>shoplifting

yeah that part isn't cool at all

The boston tea party was far more civil and orderly. They only targeted the destruction of the tea owned by the east india company. People who tried to loot anything were told off. They made sure to clean up after themselves and replaced the lock they broke.

Wtf? How was the tea party more civil? They were revolting against Tea Act of passed by British parliament which was the government in control! These people are literally doing the exact same thing! Do you hate the founding of America then???

and these kids destroyed no property. They only stole from a corporation (which is fine by me because corporations are terrible) and biked down a road while looking baller af.

Does 7-11 stock it's franchise, or do they just require the mom-and-pop franchisee to purchase their stocks from corporate? One of those means it's not actually the corporation eating the losses.
