My definition of “epic” better not differ from their definition of “epic,” because when I hear or read that something is, or is going to be “epic,” it better be as advertised. WPIX11 breathlessly reports that the march #OWS is planning from NYC to DC is going to be most radtastically epic, the likes of which man hath never before witnessed. They better have the numbers to make this Odysseus-style journey truly “epic.”

Salon also hailed it as “EPIC.”

Occupiers plan epic New York to Washington march

This lady is likely angry because the sign behind her is emitting a lightning bolt which is striking her sign and obscuring her message about incorrect percentages.

The latest example is a small group of occupiers who will set out tomorrow on a 230-mile march from New York to Washington, where they plan to arrive on the eve of the deadline of the congressional supercommittee.

The WPIX11 article quotes protesters as saying they hope to pick up other protesters along the way. I’m curious to see if their numbers going into DC will be anything like the two million or so tea partiers that marched into the city back in 2009:

That was truly epic.

I’m also interested in seeing how many assaults, rapes, poops, thefts, acts of antisemitism occur, how many kids will be used as blockades, how many old ladies are pushed down the stairs, you get the idea. This should be interesting.
