'Overheard' @ SXSW: What does green mean to you?

by JC Fletcher { Mar 8th 2008 at 8:30PM }

I didn't actually need to hear anything to get the story here. The interview crew were wearing shirts featuring the title question (which I really thought would show up in the picture, but just trust me), and they cornered this Spartan from the 405th Infantry Division. What does green mean to you, guy dressed like the Master Chief?

I felt very lucky to witness this convergence. Such a perfect meeting is like a lol-ar eclipse.

What does this post mean to anyone? Anybody? Am I missing something here?

Loosen up, it's a blog.

What does "post worthy" mean for you?

On a free blog I'm not paying for? They could post about their poop and it'd still be post-worthy.

I was also confused at first so let me see if I can explain. There were people at South by Southwest interviewing people asking them "What does Green mean to you?" as in a clean environment. They just happened to run into a person wearing a Master Chief costume and probably interviewed him.

Must be one of those "you had to be there" moments.

@Booxatron and GUS:

What are you guys' deals? Is it just that you don't get it? I think it's brilliant!

Hey, hey, it's cool. I wasn't really trying to say that this wasn't postworthy (Ya, I don't pay for this site and ya, I don't decide what goes on the page or not), I was just genuinely confused about what was going on here. I didn't mean to be condescending in my first post, I just wanted to see if anyone else got any meaning from it. The article was just written really vaguely.

Sorry, I didn't realize how sharp that came out. I'm wasn't trying to sound snappy.

Green is green.

Lmao

That's like going to Disneyland and saying "Can my son get a picture with you, dude in that Mickey Mouse suit?"

I always miss lolar eclipses btw, I miss every eclipse.
