Cool assignment for class, looking for ideas.

So I'm taking this class called Deviance & Identity which explores
"abnormal" behavior like drug use and prostitution and peoples' reasons
for choosing these alternative lifestyles. We started learning about
social norms last class so our first assignment is to do something
deviant, but not illegal, in or around Burlington VT and write about
what happens. She suggested shit for people who are socially anxious,
like wearing two different shoes. I, on the other hand, think this is
the sweetest assignment I've gotten in... God knows how long, so I want
to do something outrageous. Who knows when I'll be asked to do this
again?
I was thinking of wearing a shirt that says something ridiculous like
"Against Abortion. For Killing Babies" and claiming I belong to a
religion that disagrees with abortion solely to acquire babies because
baby sacrifice is the only true way to happiness. It could be pretty
funny, but I feel like some crazy Feminazi will shank me, besides the
fact that it's not really as clever or obnoxious as I'm looking to be. I have
no boundaries for what I'm willing to do, and after the deed is done I
will update this thread (possibly with video). Thanks!

Haha, this is a great idea. I'll have to find some shitty skis because it's not worth ruining my PEs or Thrusters.
I'm so excited, I think I'm just gonna make like an edit of me being a huge douchebag in Burlington. One day where I'm dressed like a thug being an asshole, one day where I'm all geared up in my ski shit being a retard, one day for acting homeless in some nice clothes... this has some potential.

Alright, so I didn't get to do everything I wanted to because I got stopped by a police officer, and some of the stuff I did do either didn't get filmed or wasn't funny without audio, but I managed to put together a pretty solid little edit of some highlights. Includes a rather legendary dance battle in the middle of Church Street, and some footage of me walking around fucking with people. It's about 75% uploaded now, I'll post it when it's done.
