<p>I feel like they have gotten RIDICULOUSLY aggressive with their flyering this week. They hassle me every morning at the GBC. They're like vultures.</p>
<p>who ARE they? They bothered me too.</p>
<p>I love google: [Home</a> - CALPIRG](<a href=“http://www.calpirg.org/]Home”>http://www.calpirg.org/)</p>
<p>i had a calpirg guy harass me three times in the same day, after the second time he recognized me and stopped asking. shiit is soooo annoying.</p>
<p>how hard is it to say “no im not interested”</p>
<p>I told one guy, " I heard it already and am not interested," but he kept following me anyways. I was about to go to the library and he said if he could finish talking and I said okay but I’m gonna say no at the end. then he finished an asked if I wanted to join and I said no.</p>
<p>^I had a similar experience!</p>
<p>what happened if it is a real sexy girl … would you say ‘yes’ ???</p>
<p>Avoid eye contact! is the key. Also, wear earphones and if they do say something, ignore it and pretend you’re doing something else.</p>
<p>Or…you could all just do the same thing I do and just say that you already pledged.
Too easy.</p>
<p>Yeah, CALPIRG recruiters can be a bit crazy. I just tell them I’m not interested and don’t have the time for it, SORRY. The club seems passionate about its mission, but if you’re looking to join the environmental cause or whatever I’d recommend CAL Rotaract (sp?) instead.</p>
<p>Lie and say you’ve pledged CALPIRG, already. He’ll immediately say ‘okay, thanks’ and walk away. Guaranteed.</p>
<p>Maybe I just suck at lying, but I told them I pledged one time and they said, “Oh yeah? With who?” and then kept following me.</p>
<p>lol. im the only sap on here thats actually pledged with them. damn bastards have take like 40 dollars from me these past semesters. that does it. im going to eshleman to unpledge one of these days.</p>
<p>Today I met one and I said, “No, and I’m not going to. Have a nice day.” and walked off. I’d like to think saying a conversation-closer will get them to shut up…</p>
<p>If I was more confident, I would say something really dirty and sexual after they asked me to pledge.</p>
<p>Other times I just want to screw with them, but I can’t bring myself to it.</p>
<p>@demoz: Just say (if you’re a guy) some girl or (if you’re a girl) some guy last week. </p>
<p>I was asked that once too last year and I just kept walking despite the fact that I think the guy was trying to figure out whether I was lying or not. </p>
<p>@W4C I’ve heard it’s so hard to stop them for some reason. Everyone I’ve heard talking about trying to stop giving them money says it’s a pain in the ass. haha</p>
<p>@KnitKnots: I want to say “Oh god I just ****ed in my pants” but I can’t bring myself to say it.</p>
<p>Any type of response only encourages them. Silence is always the cleanest rejection.</p>
<p>CALPIRG season is just awful. These people are like annoying parasites. </p>
<p>In previous semesters, I tried “No thanks”, but they just end up following me anyway. I’ve been using “I’m not interested” this semester, and it works very well.</p>
<p>Bam another one bites the dust today. Bruce Wayne wins! Fist pump.</p>
