They don't wait for passers-by; they approach you when you're waiting for a bus and can't walk away. And even worse, they don't have that unflappable Jonestowny cheeriness -- if you say no, sometimes they flip out and get verbally abusive. So ... MassPirg could be worse, is what I'm saying.</p> http://bostonist.com/2006/07/19/interview_andy_lin_creator_of_antimasspirg_tshirts.php#comment-274418 http://bostonist.com/2006/07/19/interview_andy_lin_creator_of_antimasspirg_tshirts.php#comment-274418 Comments Wed, 19 Jul 2006 14:00:48 -0500 <p>While at college in Minnesota in the mid/late 90s, I remember that MPIRG there was similarly aggressive to the Boston-are brethren. They bombarded our wee student-run campus newspaper with pre-fab articles on a routine basis, and were pretty argumentative when we would decline to run them.</p>
