We had to sign something quickly, a snap decision. We didn’t think much about the issue, just slapped our name and address onto the paper. But that clipboard… something about it was so distracting and dirty and troublesome, I couldn’t help but feel we’d done the wrong thing.

John filed a petition against the local duck Youth Club, which had become noisy and was disrupting his weekly bingo get-togethers. Fifteen mature gentlemen signed the petition, but it wasn’t enough. The Youth Club raged on.

All my life I’ve been apart of a world apart a work of art and the freedom to fart but I’ve seen the moonbeams and star shine and child cry and riots in the street and people missing feet and I’m sighing and I’m flying and it’s all incredibly fine.

No one believes me. That’s the problem. No one thinks that this, what they love so much, has this darker angrier side to it. No one thinks that it could partake in this evil.
“Sign the petition,” I plead, but everyone just glances at the pitch, frowns, and walks away.
The funny thing was that the petition was changing something. Lilly always thought that they were a huge waste of time. They didn’t do anything, ever, and usually the government just rolled their eyes and ignored the message. This time was different. The leaders were advocating for the end of the practice of arranged marriage.

you wanna sign petition if you want something happen that might be controversial so you need to get other people on board to have your voice heard. the more the merrier and them more people sign the more people will listen and hopefully things will change. petitions are usually politically related – human ri

“This is my petition,” she said. She just wanted to tell me how she felt, but I couldn’t hear. She wanted to, but she couldn’t speak. I wanted to, but my selfishness got in the way. We were at a standoff.

A crazy man once came to my door, shoving a petition in my face. He says to me, “the absurd abolition of American asshats is atrocious!” I said, “Good day to you sir!” But the door remained ajar.
Coy Shaffstall
do you want to sign the petition? its for a good cause. you can stay anonymous if you prefer. nothing is going to change unless we get the word out and people start to understand the importance of the cause. if you’re on the fence about it, would you still sign? just a name would help and if you aren’t against it, would you help us?
Two years ago Levi Jeffs and his friend started a petition to get better cafeteria food. Earlier this year Elias started a petition to get dinosaur chicken nuggets. Levi’s was legitimate reason and Elies’s didn’t.
The townspeople were growing angry over the new laws passed. I AM FUCKING PANICKING. The new law was that all the people in the town had to have four yellow flamingos on their yard at all times. So they wrote a petition.

Elias had a petition signed to get his dinosaur chicken nuggets. He didn’t get them.
i signed the petition not really sure what i signed, but his baby blue eyes had me all confused. Turns out i signed a petition against womans lib

a petition is happening at my school. we are petitioning wether or not to have a new club at our school. i will not tell you the name of the club, it is secret.
The knock sounded at my door, loud and persistent. The young man thrust a clip board in my face and rattled off some statistics of why I should sign the petition. They needed 5,000 names, and mine would be number 4,987. If I signed.
A petition is a request for something desired. You could petition for a change in the law and have everyone sign that petition. I petition that David Tennant should hold the Olympic Flame!

Petition is a word used for people trying to over throw someones law. An example would be; I could use a petition to try to pass a law of letting dogs in parks by getting a certain number of people on board with me.
I don’t know the meaning of this word so how can I write this out. I am an ESL student. What does this even mean, huh? Are you crazy? But I remember it means something about promise or when you sign something in order to make some process.

Perfection eludes us in the ancillary
existence of love we so willingly ignore.
Third time’s the charm, with our hearts
in one hand and our hate in the other.
Taste the truth that falls from my lips

oblivious to the lies they spill. My throat
neglects my vocal cords to produce the words.
Petition the position he said. You left the papers in the kitchen. I dont know much about these things but i do know a bit of this and that. Why do we look into the future we we dont know the past i dont understand but once again at last. Petition the position.
I rarely sign petitions. I just don’t enjoy putting my name on a piece of paper that requires me to agree or disagree with anything. Now I’m all about change, but I believe in action. I believe that living your talk and walking your walk are the best ways to bring that about. It’s easy to sign your name on a line. That takes no courage.
Sometimes the best way Harry could get his point across was to write a letter. It hadn’t worked well for him in the last few months as he aimed his new campaign squarely at the brow of the average voter. Was the president such a huge waste of space after all? Open letters never worked. This time he decided would be different. He would take this to the top and file a petition.

The petition was passed around. I skipped it the first time, the second time and the third. Finally the fourth time it came around I caved. After sobering up I realized the worldwide phenom I had just helped create. Curling is still an Olympic sport to this day.

I would like to petition for school to just cancel itself. Not that I don’t value education, cause I do. But it’s just that I am in the middle of graduation practice and I don’t think it’s fair that we have to practice for 9 hours for 7 days. It’s just too much and it sucks cause they give us at least 3 hours of break during practices, so we are just stuck at school deadpan not doing anything.
I’m not one for petitions – I’m sure sometimes they work but I see them as odorous pieces of paper stuffed in front mostly of people that don’t care. Time consuming and not very powerful and yet I know that these things have worked – maybe I think of them more to do with the pre internet age; I need something more instant.

We learned about petitions in history awhile ago. It had something to do with the first ammendment. I dunno. It was pretty interesting….like, how we can say whatever the fuck we want about the government. Totally love our country. Loljk. Fuck America. Well, most of the time at least.

They wouldn’t sign the petition, so the scab workers were forced to start taking double shifts. It was a blow to morale on both sides. The generators plugged away all night while the cries of the strikers died off around 5, only to begin again each day at around 9.
I thought my verdict had been made. I thought that I had already made a final decision about her. But every nerve in my body vied against me, rebelled at my stupidity, and a trembled at the power of my own subconscious. But I was stronger than myself. I had to be. This was the way it was going to be, whether I liked it or not.
He took the petticoat up to the angel at the gate. “Here,” he said, “Write on it with your angel ink.” It was very quiet, and all he could think about was that he was dead and there was no mud in heaven.
I signed the petition to recall the tyrant who masquerades as governor of the State of Wisconsin. The sooner we are rid of his presence in this state the healthier for everyone. He may be the greatest Democratic organizer of all time. The Dems have never been more motivated to win an election. Recall Walker!
It’s been a couple dates now. 5 at last count. we’ve done couple-y stuff like going out to dinner followed by a movie, walks along the river talking about this and that and everything in between, even museums – check. How do I ask without asking?
There are always petitions everywhere you go. Some are good and some are not. My husband signs almost every petition that lands in his email to be sent to Washington DC. These range from legalizing weed to getting someone out of congress.

i noticed that you forget to grab your petition as you left. it was sitting there on the counter in the kitchen and i was so sure i saw you look at it right before you exited, but maybe it was just my imagination because why would you leave such an important document behind? unless… unless you wanted me to sign it.
Let’s write a petition to make it legal to do whatever the hell you want in the town I live in. We know what is good and what is bad and we don’t need law to inform us of that. Jus’ sayin’.

My daughter felt that the school’s rule about no iPods in study hall was very unjust. So she wrote a petition to end that rule. Everyone in the school signed. And the rule was overturned. Yay for democracy in the schools!
