From the file marked, "Things that should exist but don't yet, as far as I know"
Friday, May 09, 2008 @ 5:24 PM
I discovered passiveaggressivenotes.com, and many similar sites, and then I had an idea. The idea was inspired by Anna, who is in fifth grade and graduating soon from the DARE program.
I don't know about you, but I continued to wear my DARE shirt through high school. So did a lot of the kids who took advantage of U-High's open campus policy to visit a picnic table across the street and smoke. Over the years, I've pondered the irony of kids wearing DARE shirts while smoking, drinking, and otherwise experimenting with substances. I don't think I've actually done so, but I've definitely thought about taking pictures of this situation, for the irony. (That and smoking pot in front of one of those "DRUG FREE ZONE" signs.)
Someone needs to start a photo blog made up entirely of pictures of people wearing DARE t-shirts (or DARE t-shirt parodies, of which there are many) and partaking in non-DARE-sanctioned activities. Obviously, there's the issue of illegality - you wouldn't want to publish people's faces or identifying characteristics. Unless of course you're 21, wearing a DARE shirt, and drinking wine from a paper bag. Then you should show your face.
So... somebody get on that.

Well, there's the problem that taking pictures of people doing drugs while wearing anti-drug gear is ironic. There's another name it goes by: Evidence. ;)

I believe I covered the illegality issue. You would have to blur or cover people's faces if they were engaging in illegal activity.

I guess you did. I knew there was a reason I didn't say that the first time I read the post. ;)
