#Yourtime, #Mytime, Doesn’t That Make It … Our Time?

As the House prepares to consider legislation on Wednesday on comp-time legislation, House Republicans have been urging working-class Americans to share how they might spend comp days via the #Yourtime thread.

A quick HOH survey of the Twitters reveals more Republican members flogging their bill than American working-class types, but we did spy a retweet from one of the legacy Run DMC members, the Reverend Run, aka Joseph Simmons.

Snapping selfies in lieu of chores.

Abandoning educational pursuits.

Worshiping reality TV.

Eschewing clothing.

And, last but certainly not least:

Plotting your demise.

Maybe the key is that it’s not necessarily #Yourtime or #Mytime, but #Ourtime:
