The latest, coolest (but not trendy of course), uber-alternative, in-your-face activism to get involved in? Why that would be freegans. Nothing guarantees you more attention (not that that's what your after, of course) than this newest craze. If you hike the Appalachians in your barefeet like Nature intended, don't shave your legs because it objectifies women, and will only bathe in natural bodies of water, then this might be the podium you've been looking for.

Your political statement: that we waste too much in this country. You're right, we do. So what better way to change the world than to quit your job, squat in an abandoned house, and eat everybody else's garbage? That's right. All you have to do is dig through the trash bins, find discarded food, and eat it. Don't be confused by the "egan" sound of the word, you don't have to be a vegan. Oh no. You can eat old, half-eaten jelly donuts, and Applebee's Riblets if you're lucky! Anything goes, as long as you don't pay for it, and there are no hobo fights over trash rights. Be careful of those dudes, they take their turf pretty seriously. But hey, you're ready. You've got your social commentary all prepared, and you just can't wait to shove it down somebody's throat!

You rock.

Oh and hey, shoplifting, employee theft, and returning items you didn't actually buy at stores are all a-ok for freegans. So is peeing on stuff that makes you mad, too!

Cool, huh?
