For our latest mission, over 50 redheads rode the subway together and protested a Manhattan Wendy’s for their “racist logo.” Enjoy the videos first and then go behind the scenes with our mission report, photos, and more videos below.

Mission Inspired By: Agent McCarthy
Agent Fountain organizes the group photo
Agent McCarthy stopped me on the street a couple of months ago with an awesome suggestion. He proposed, “What would it be like if you got onto a subway car and slowly realized that everyone on the car but you had red hair?” Redheads only make up 1% of the world’s population, and with the racial diversity of the New York subway system, it’s probably an even smaller percentage. We had no idea how many redheads we could actually find. I sent an email to our New York agents list and was amazed at the response. We had tons of redheads in our ranks, and everyone else seemed to have a friend to forward it on to.
Agent Kula briefs the crowd
One of the most fun parts of the mission for me was walking to the meeting point in Central Park and trying to figure out who was a part of the group. Everyone was curiously checking out everyone else’s hair as they approached, trying to make sure they were in the right spot. About 50 redheads showed up, and Agent Kula (Improv Everywhere’s most senior redhead) briefed the crowd on the day’s activities.
The subway ride was first on our agenda. Of course, we’d be taking the 1 train, as it’s on the red line.
The redheads acted as if they didn’t know each other and went about their normal subway routine.
The youngest redheaded agent
The 1 train goes above ground for a few stops in upper Manhattan, which could have been dangerous for our redheads had a very enterprising salesmen not have arrived to hawk $1 squirts of sunscreen.
Agent Rodgers makes a sale
The vendor was played by Agent Rodgers, reprising his “subway entrepreneur” role from No Pants 2k6 when he sold dozens of pants to half-naked riders. That kid always seems to have what’s in demand.

Agent Rodgers ‘06
The 30, 45, and 50 SPF squirts of sunscreen sold very well.
Folks on the train giggled and whispered to each other as riders began applying sunscreen.
At 168th street, the redheads got out and rode the train back downtown. It was fun to see the mass of red hair on the platform.
We even manged to have one Asian redhead
After the ride we met back up in the park and regrouped for our Wendy’s protest. We would be protesting Wendy’s racist mascot that was an unfair, stereotypical representation of redheaded people. It was time for the National Association for the Advancement of Redhaired People to take a stand against this offensive logo.
Several agents brought some awesome signs, and a few more brought supplies to create some on the spot.
“You want lies with that?”
We walked a few blocks to the Wendy’s on 8th and 55th and set up our peaceful protest along the sidewalk, careful not to block foot traffic.
Agent Kula led the first few chants, pumping the crowd of angry (perhaps fiery, even) redheads. Throughout the day there were some really hilarious chants. Some of my favorites:
-”Biggie Size Bigotry!”
-”Value Menu Us!”
-”Fiery Burgers Not Fiery Redheads!”
-”Give Wendy Some Pigment!”
-”Where’s Our Beef? In Your Logo!”
-”We Want Frosties, But At What Costies?!?”
We were right in front of a bus stop, which worked out well. Every few minutes a new bus would arrive and the driver would gawk at us.
We got great reactions from folks walking by. Crowds gathered on either side of us and across the street. Most folks laughed and snapped a camera phone photo; a few even called friends to tell them what was going on. Some tried to get to the bottom of it, but our agents played it straight and insisted they were legitimately upset with Wendy’s.
Some younger onlookers…
…and some older ones
Our favorite crowder member was a bald man who after exiting the Wendy’s looked confused for a few minutes trying to figure out what was going on. When he put it together, he immediately started dancing, jumping, and screaming, “Wendy’s logo has got to go” with us and shouting, “I ain’t go no hair!” He was awesome.
Our second favorite person was an older woman with red hair who emerged from the Wendy’s. She smiled and gave the crowd a fist pump, which elicited enormous cheers of solidarity.
One of our own agents got a much nastier greeting when he emerged a bit later with a Wendy’s cup in his hand. We had planned ahead that he’d be booed and called a “scab” for eating Wendy’s food.
“Scab!!!!”
The Wendy’s staff never came outside to address us. I went inside to capture some footage early in the mission (which you can see in the main video at the top of this page.) Most of the employees I encountered were laughing and trying to figure it all out.
An employee and two customers look out from the 2nd floor window
We got plenty of funny looks from customers as they ate as well.
The manager came to the window at one point and stared for awhile, but he opted not to come out and give Wendy’s official stance on their racist mascot.
After about a half hour we packed it up and headed out. As we got back to the meeting point we realized a guy had followed us the whole way. He had two giant bags of cheeseburgers for us. He claimed he didn’t work at Wendy’s and that he just thought we looked hungry. I guess it was just a nice guy? Anyway, once the mission was over the redheads very much enjoyed the free food.
Mission Accomplished

Mission Accomplished = no one got sunburned
Genius. I love it. But you didn’t ride the subway afterwards?
man, as a redhead in seattle, i wish i coulda been there!
YAY REDHEADS!
I love the picture of me and Miri with our “Bottle Redheads Get Offended Too” poster. (She’s the one in the sunglasses, I’m the one in the shorts)
This was such a fun mission. I had a great time trying to figure out where exactly we were meeting. So many redheads, though. I adored the guy who brought us the burgers, especially since I didn’t have money to have food and also get back home to LI.
All in all, it was quite an enjoyable mission. *^_^*
My greatest sorrow in life is that my vivid redhair slowly turned to - what I hopefully call - strawberry blonde when I was seven. Redheads rock…I love this mission!
this is pretty lame… i know that you want to make light of certain things in life, which is a good thing; but this seems to make light of protests, which is uncool.
Get a grip man. This is ridiculous.
Michael — Another redhead in Seattle here. Maybe we should try to set one up here?
Wish I’d been there. I don’t have red hair but I’d have carried a sign with “P.O.R. United–Parents of Redheads. Don’t discriminate against our kids!”
Rev on the REDline.
Good one gang :)
“We love Frosties but at what costies?”
Nice one, Kula!
I’m loving the chants. Great job, guys.
Awesome. As always.
One funny thing that happened during the subway ride: when I bought my $1 squirt of sunblock (”hypoallergenic, please”), the lady next to me grew very concerned that Agent Rodgers had ripped me off. “You paid him a whole dollar for that? He hardly gave you anything!”
I really don’t get it. Do they really think the logo is racist or is this just a big farce. I can’t imagine any reason why they would think the log is racist. I suppose KFC is racist against white haired people, where are the senior citizens protesting KFC.
Very dumb post, had my jaw open the whole time i was reading.
You could have been a bottle redhead? Man, when I saw the call for redheads, I thought it was naturals only. I would have loved to have participated.
I totally lol’ed at that bald guy in the first video. Great stuff, keep up the awesome work!
Buttergingers! You got ‘em!
This is beautiful. I laughed wicked hard. If I were in the city, I’d have joined you. Red hair rocks! ^^
As another poster pointed out, it’s a cute idea. But at the same time, could you have picked a different medium than the protest? Considering the current political climate I think the last thing we need to do is debase what remains one of the few forms of free expression in this country.
To me, this is the same as those obnoxious Diesel ads that came out a couple of years ago with gaunt fashion models holding signs that say “no more green lights” or something equally inane..
When did this protest take place?
What an amazing day!!!
also, I might be mistaken, but:
“One of our own agents got a much nastier greeting when he emerged a bit later with a Wendy’s cup in his hand. We had planned ahead that he’d be booed and called a “scab” for eating Wendy’s food.”
Originally, I was going to be the scab but didn’t get the chance- I’m pretty sure that guy was an actual customer!!
RIGHT ON, RED!
i love redheads (married to one). you guys are so hilarious!!!
Well played Redheads!
I love it! I’m not a redhead myself, but I support the NAARP. More power to them I say.
And I was so inspired by their efforts, I decided to shed a little light on the topic on my blog as well…
http://diamondkt.blogspot.com/2007/07/raciest-wendys-girl-logo-has-gotta-go.html
Would’ve been funnier if you didn’t invoke racism.
I loved this. Wish it had been done when I was coincidentally in NYC right around that time.
I’m surprised at the people who are obviously completely in the dark about what Improv Everywhere is. The suggestions to protest something “more worthy” are quite amusing.
You can see my own red hair on my site, if you want. I was there with you in spirit! :-)
I missed it and was so bummed. I had the best signs ever like….”don’t tREaD on me” and “Wendy’s will AUBURN in Hell”…well they are funny to me.
Welcome back! Loved the hamburger philanthropist at the end.
Some interesting facts about redheads.
1. Bozo the clown was NOT a natural redhead.
2. The little red haired girl in the Peanuts comic strip was actually a woman who jilted Charles Schulz back before he became successful.
3. Pippi Longstockings, one of the world’s most famous redheads, lived in a wacky old house called….drum roll…..Villa VilleKula.
They don’t actually think the logo is racist ‘Kay?
Great chants, guys! And kudos to the mysterious hamburger giver and the guy who sympathized. Hehe.
Mission accomplished!
Looked like a lot of fun!
Woohoo, redhead power! I got a good laugh reading about this :-)
I would have loved to be in that large a group of fellow redheads - I would have sold squirts of sunscreen for only 75¢ each, lol.
This is the first mission that I can remember that was negative in nature. It struck me as very out of character.
Ya see what’s happening with these gingers. it starts with the secret meetings then the rallies begin. Pretty soon they’ll be wanting to go to our schools, play on our golf courses, who knows, one of them might be dating your sister one day. Wake Up People!!!
Did you know that all the energy you waste on these pathetic “stunts” could be used to help people in genuine need of help, you know like citizens of war torn countries in Africa? You arty idiots are so conceited in your pathetic actions it’s actually sickening. Instead of trying to create an issue, even in jest, why don’t you actually try and improve the world rather than improv?
Where do I sign up!? As a natural born red head with a general dislike of most others who tan. Hell I’m surprised I didn’t start this club! Then again I feel the pain more than they do for sure, as I used to work at wendy’s and every one called me wendy! Did I wear pig tails, do I even have freckles on my face, NO! Shit happens though, I’m pretty full of hate for the tan community but I do agree it’s a little silly to protest wendy. It’s easy to not understand why they’re being so upset and calling them silly, because if you’re not a “ginger” you’ve never had to deal with all of the comments.
“why don’t you go to the tanning bed?” answer: because I BURN!
“why don’t you use fake tanning stuff?” answer: it turns me freaking orange
I am so sick of being called pale by people as I’ve heard it my entire life!
So you can laugh at them, but I actually understand how they feel. There is bigotry toward red heads more than we vocally let known.
Johnson-
Grow a brain. The fallacy you use would require world peace, an end to poverty and triumph over death before anyone would be allowed to ‘waste’ a second smiling.
I had planned to attend, and I had told a number of red headed friends to attend as well, but at the last minute I got stuck in a rehearsal for a play for the entire day.
There are so many redheads in NYC that I’m sure the number of reds in this mission could easily be eclipsed.
I hope that in the future us reds band together more often.
Think Million Man March or Critical Mass…
cREDical Mass?
C’mon people now, smile on your brother!
I really don’t understand the racisim in the logo.
I shall adress all racisim stated in the video about logo.
“How many of us today actually wear our hair in pigtails? None.”
I think the Wendy’s Girl is a little girl. Little girls sometimes do wear their hair in pigtails. Also, the problem is “TODAY” because who says the Wendy’s Girl is a modern day girl? Tell me.
“Our faces are not straight white chalky.”
1. Scroll up until you go to the Wendy’s logo shown on the page. Her face is not white in the picture you have shown.
2. The reason as to why her face is white, I have no idea. But I doubt it was meant to show how redhead’s faces are.
“We don’t all have freckles, and those of us who do don’t have them the size of quarters.”
Cartoony girl.
All points, SHOT DOWN.
I see no racism.
However, if you believe it is racist, I’m not stopping you from believing that. I’m just stating why I see no racism.
And about the “All points, SHOT DOWN” I just really wanted to say “SHOT DOWN”
Oh yeah, I forgot.
Who’s next?
Ronald Mcdonald, or the Burger King?
I think it’s safe to say that Wendy’s Inc. learned a very valuable lesson that day: NO TURN ON RED IN NYC.
Yes, my name is Wendy…and I’m a redhead! Wendy’s made my life a living hell back in fourth grade during the “Where’s the beef” campaign. I would have loved to be there for the protest.
Kudos to all that participated……I hate that logo and that commercial they have on tv is just plain degrading……..wish I could have been there thanks for Sharing………GREAT Idea
Wow! Redheads are a race? How stupid. By calling this racism you cheapen the word racism and help to destroy it’s meaning. So is the moral of this story that you can’t have redheads on your logo? Morons. I’m gonna go by some Wendy’s burgers and watch Pippi Longstocking, then watch the ginger episode of South Park and laugh at your stupidity.
I think it’s foolish to make fun of your own. Wendy is a real person.
From Wikipedia:
“Wendy’s was founded by Dave Thomas in 1969 and was named after Dave’s second daughter, Melinda Lou Thomas, then 8 years old, whom her older siblings nicknamed “Wendy” (originally “Winda”, stemming from the child’s initial difficulty saying her own name), as Thomas stated in his A&E Biography show.”
And, yes. Wendy has red hair and freckles. She is pictured on the Wendy’s International Web site in a flash presentation about Dav’s legacy.

Well… if you were hoping to change some stereotypes, I’m sure you’ve succeeded. Instead of assuming that all redheads have cartoony freckles, chalk white faces, and pigtails… many of those that have witnessed this event will know the truth. Those redheads that stand up for themselves against pointless odds, for a cause that takes great courage and little self respect to fight for.
Seriously though… having had a Father that experienced racism on a daily basis for most of his childhood, this is a farce. If the worst thing that happens to you is being loosely compared to a cartoon mascot, you are very lucky indeed.
The word “racism” would leave the possibility that some actual race is being slighted… are bottle reds an actual separate race? If so, I’m sure the FDA might be worried about a DNA-altering hair dye on the market.
Is ya’lls pubic hair red too?
Congratulations for another successful mission!
I can’t believe all these haters posting such negative comments. It’s COMEDY, people!!! Grow a sense of humor!
Big ups to my fellow red heads…living in Miami I would have definetly appreciated the sunscreen too! Awesome…wish I could have been there!
I think what you all have done is great. Everyone needs representation (positive that is) I have a friend who is red headed and she says she is cute. I happen to think she is adoreably cute and beautiful. She is unique and boy is she smart. Red has also become part of the new norm so guys keep up what you do and strut your stuff. You all are awesome.
Simple and brilliant, as always!
I love the sunscreen sale - gotta protect those fair-skinned folks!
This is just great….
You guys are ridiculous im a red head and i think you ppl need to get a life and fight for something better then something that has been around for decades. Maybe something like our corrupt government or the war in iraq or what really caused 9/11 get over it.
Oh My Dear God! I cannot believe that you pulled this off Agent McCarthy. I remember you talking about the subway ride back in April, but I did not think you were actually gonna do it. As for those of you who left comments about protests and racism being a serious matter that should not be made light of, GET OVER YOURSELVES!!!!! IT WAS A FRIGGIN JOKE PEOPLE!!!!!! The people who “protested” in these clips are not the problem with society. It’s people like you and all the other politically correct morons who are so focused on dividing and sectioning us all off into little groups that can never ever be made fun of in the name of progress that are actually causing greater problems.
Learn to laugh once in a while. Otherwise get off your high horse, get on your hands and knees and let the horse show you “where the beef” should go.
I was sitting next to a couple of non-reds on the subway, couple of gals. When they heard the agent coming through announcing he had sunblock for a buck, one of them commented to the other, “That’s a really good idea!” The other one said, “It’s only a buck, too. We should stock up.”
They were digging in their purses when they saw that it wasn’t bottles of sunscreen he was selling, but simply blorts of goo into the buyers’ bare hands.
Quietly, without comment, they closed their purses.
I’m almost as amused by the idiots who think this was a serious protest as by the mission itself. Love your style of humor… hope you guys get on TV soon.
WOW!!! People really need to read the explaination of what IE is all about before they start ranting about it. It was COMEDY!!! I mean, its called Improv!!!
life would be really BORING if we took EVERYTHING so seriously. Yes, even racism. I’m black, if I took every pocketbook grab on the subway to heart I’d be walking around depressed all the time. A little light on the subject now and then really doesn’t hurt.
Being a redhead myself, I thought this was crazy. Its totally cool in a weird twisted sort of way. If this had been a serious rally I would have been kind of offended. I give props to Dave Thomas. Everybody needs a little redhead in their life, and Dave ensured that. As redheads we need to pull together. Maybe next time there should be a rally to support Wendy’s, for their continual support. Everybody knows that redheads do it better,Go Melanocortin 1!
Gotta say guys, this was not up to your usual clever and amusing standards.
One of the best missions you have done. I was laughing through the whole video. Some people need to lighten up.
This is the stupidest thing i’ve ever seen!! Surely there’s something more worthwhile to protest?
Enjoy it while it lasts because eventually you’re all going to be bred out.
Besides… gingers are gross, creepy and have no souls!
Love it - what a great idea :)
And thanks to the idiots like Blackula, too, who prove exactly why stunts like this are needed… (as well as being funny!)
This is hilarious! Good job guys! :D
I lol’d hard at the pictures of Agent Kula chanting and the bald guy who joined you!
The sunscreen bit was pure genius as well.
Looks like fun was had by all, which is what this is all about :)

Actually, apart from being really funny, it reads (intentionally or not) as a criticism of overplaying of the race card. I heartily agree.
I think this is great! We have often been the butt of many red-headed-step-child jokes and ridiculed for centuries. We are in fact more original and beautiful than any other hair color. We all posess the red head FIRE that burns with in us, makes us misterious and dangerous to you all. We ARE one of the seven great wonders of this world, and should be treated as such. I don’t get anything free from Wendy, or her company, its high time she paid us our dues! Keep the good fight going, best wishes to all the red heads that came out to protest, you’re an inspiration to us all. Lota of love!
Redheaded Lisa in Portsmouth, New Hampshire
What the heck is up with you guys. I’m a Red head, I’m proud to be one but Wendys has NEVER offended me. If you guys can pull bigotry from a sign, they have even more “racists” in therapy to help you with this “problem”. The first step to stopping racism is getting over ourselves. The whole idea is just silly, are you sure that we aren’t just doing this for attention? Hate crimes exist, they will exist, but to take it out on a corporation are we any better as instigators?
Why aren’t they protesting McDonald’s? I believe they also use a red-headed mascot with a very light complexion!
seriously…. whatever !
What a fucking aste of time.
Use your freetime on something sensible, like raising money for the poor or something like that.
Haha, always a good laugh from you guys, and if only it had been during march of 2006, when I was stayin at the Da Vinci Hotel. I recognized the mcdonalds in the background where I would have breakfast every morning. haha.
very clever. and to the people that gave negative feedback,
please lighten up and try to relax that incredibly tight sphincter muscle you sit on.
Wow. What an overwhelming response from the masses. I was there and had no idea this would be seen as controversial. Wuhduhfuh?
First off: This was friggin hilarious and tons of fun, so for you naysayers, bite me.
Secondly, if you have enough time on your hands to search youtube for redhead protests and comment on the videos, maybe you shouldn’t be judging the fact we haven’t changed the world in our free time, no? Maybe YOUR time could be better spent solving the worlds problems or possibly surgically removing the giant stick up your ass that prevents you from understanding that this was A JOKE. Or possibly playing Scrabble. It’s a good game.
I think it’s really important to find the fun in life, and I feel so bad for anyone that doesn’t understand that.
This is so frickin out of control funny. As a daywalker, I solute you!
Don’t you people realize Dave Thomas created the Wendy’s logo to celebrate his red-headed daughters? Do your research before you complain.
This isn’t fun, it’s simply stupid. I’m asian, specifically Japanese, if you couldn’t guess from the name, but I don’t flip out every time those hotpockets commercials come on. Get over yourself. This isn’t changing the world, it’s being whiny. Boo frickity hoo, you have red hair. People are like “Oh, he has red hair.” Try having to deal with “Do you know kung fu?”, and “Do you speak chinese?” every waking moment. I got over it, and so should you. But it’s hard to get over something that does not exist. Stop drawing attention to yourself by making up problems.
hey hey im a fellow natural red head n i am well proud of wot u all did.
lots of love and suporrt
amber
xxxxxxxx
Very well done!! The first video really captured the chants and everything well, I’m sure lots of passers-by got a good chuckle out of it.
For all the weird negative comments above…I don’t understand how any of these people could: 1 - see the video, 2 - read the mission description above, and 3 - notice that the site is called ‘IMPROV EVERYWHERE’ and not get that it was a joke.
Keep makin’ the masses laugh!
What’s the point of a protest if you aren’t actually mad at something?
I guess the entire point must be to get people to look at you, so you succeeded admirably it seems. Hmm.
Wow…. if you’re going to do something like this in a satirical kind of way, make sure you are actually funny first. The idea itself was a good one, the actual joke = NO.
wow theas redheads ars stupied you do realize the logo is baced of a real person his chiled so you are saying he is racist becaus he loves his child you guys are fucking iditos go jump off a bilding that will make a dif. in the world you wont be in it.
Jaysus!!!
To the people who commented about “racism”. A few questions. Did you notice it is a comedy group? Where once did it mention racism? It’s pointing out a stereotype, not a racist you jackasses.
If it’s pointing anything out, it’s pointing out the liberals who protest at the drop of a hat because they are “offended” by something. Y’all need to get over yourselves and have fun every now and again. You never know, you may actually smile if you try.
You guys do some messed up stuff. You guys make picketing seem like a joke and disturb peace for your stupid laugh. Not to mention annoy your fellow person as the shop. I.E. When you entered a Best Buy with Kakis and Blue Polos. How many people came to you asking where the PS2 games are, or where you can find stereo systems or what have you. Just making life harder on everyones lives, not the corporation, cause frankly they don’t care one bit of what you think.
Hope you all burn.
I had an odd urge to wish I had been there with a microphone, and say, “Listen up people. No body cares, quit bitching about. complaining won’t change anything. there is nothing wrong with it, the problem is in your mind.”
What an awesome event. This is just the kind of thing I would love members of redhedd.com to organize and participate in. Thanks for sharing!!
I’m for standing up for things, but this is stupid.
Lets all join hands and fight a stereotype of redheads, why don’t you go after South Park for there ginger episode. Who cares about all the animals that had to suffer and die for that fucking restaurant how your represented is much more important. At home with family, not taken away or given surgeries without anesthetics treated as mere objects horrific living conditions and then killed many times while they are very much alive.
The color of your hair is much more important.
When I read about the idea, I instantly thought of the Sherlock Holmes story: The Red-Headed League ( see http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/1661 ), it’s a story about a socity supositly set up for the dvancment of redheads, but realy a front for much more…
I’m sorry guys (and gals)…I think you have overstepped the line with this one. There are so many things that need to change however this one has got to be one of the most idiotic complaints ever to be thought up. Get a life and stop wasting the American public’s time with non sense like this, especially when we as a community have loved ones dying in the mid-east and all you can think about is Wendy has pigtails and overly white skin. By insulting the looks of this logo, you are insulting the person it represents which happens to be a pale skinned red head who had pigtails. This does not represent what you look like as we are all different. It is unsettling that boredom can result in such immature and insulting acts. FIND A HOBBY! My IQ has dropped just listening to your protest. Feel free to waste my time (please come up with a legit complaint if you do). Email: sportinthehemi@gmail.com
Wow! And I thought I was a member of a silent minority. Red heads unite!
Now, if only I could find me a hot, red-head boyfriend.
COME ON! Grow up already. So you got red hair, so does my sister and she’s not crying about it. Accept it, even if you feel it’s your only fault. There are redheads out there that look similar to that Wendy’s logo, in fact there were a couple in your pack of dummies. THAT IS WENDY, not Kula the foola. Wake up people. You’re worried about a stupid fast food logo. What about REAL issues? Hello…. guess no one’s home.
i really don’t understand why anyone feels offended by a commercial that is using the image of their logo since not a single person offended happens to be wendy. if wendy was known for having large boobs like the hooters gals, then your numbers would be made of angry large-breasted women of various shades of hair. is it a natural human compulsion to find things to argue about? i could see spending the time and resources on protesting something that affected life in some way, but protesting things like art and music does not make sense to me. maybe that is somehow illogical of me, but who is qualified to decide that anyway?
comparatively, one could choose to protest the fine makers of enzyte for being unable to achieve an erection, and thusly identifying with individuals in enzyte commercials, who are most notably remembered for having sad faces and drooping postures.
i don’t know, maybe i missed something. maybe it is the sort of thing that i would have to be red headed or impotent to understand, not that i am implying that being red headed makes one impotent because i wouldn’t know that either.
anyhow, if you want to contact me to discuss this or any other trivial or whimsical idea or thought, then please use the email address below.
dyzmljoe@gmail.com
Okay, to all of the idiots who keep looking at this site and thinking this was a serious protest… read carefully, and stick with me… the name of the site is IMPROV EVERYWHERE, not IMPROVE EVERYWHERE. It’s not an activist organization for redheads, it’s an improvisational comedy troupe!
See, taking more than three seconds to pass judgement and talking out of the correct orfice really do both help!
Love the site, love the missions, keep on doing what you’re doing!
This is for all you silly critics.
First of all, who takes the time to research the origins of the Wendy’s mascot and post a reply about something they saw on the internet but doesn’t research the event that offended them. That’s just nonsense. Read what Improv Everywhere is about before you get all worked up and post silly comments about wasting time, real issues, the middle east, racism or making it harder for the people.
Then please grow up guys. Do what you want with your life, spend all your free time trying to achieve world peace and rid the world of racisim (that’s cool and good luck if you’re actually doing it, although I doubt you are for some reason), but don’t nag on a bunch of people that have other goals.
In the end, I’m sure the crew of Improv Everywhere will have done more good then most, including you. Making people laught and breaking the routine might not feed the people of Africa, end all racism, stop wars or make you personnaly happy, but it does good, and that’s all that matters.
since when was being a redhead a racial issue? redheads are a race set apart from someone who has brown hair? everyone’s “rights” are always so violated. boofuckinghoo. yeah, dave thomas’s daughter, who happened to have redfucking hair, who the chain was named after… i bet she felt her right were violated…. idiots. do something productive instead trying to get everything for free.
