"Give Peas a Chance"
Now, I'm as fond of puns as the next person, don't get me wrong, but apparently a group in New York City is holding a Veggie Pride Parade.
You read that right folks, a parade, through the meatpacking district (of course) to promote vegetarianism and veganism.
That's fine and well. I don't have a problem with that. But how much money are they all wasting on this parade, on costumes and permit fees, etc. that they could be using in a better way to promote their cause? Instead, they're becoming the punchline to a joke.
I mean, they'll really offend people with the cross-species marriage of Penelo Pea Pod and Chris P. Carrot, won't they? 
I'm for humor and clever marketing as much as the next person. But sometimes I think people go from clever to silly without even realizing they're doing it and then they hurt more than help their cause.
