Because he's such a good boi.

Some influencr will try to knock it over. And probably succeed.

It's like seeing an owl without its feathers.

Now that is quite cool!

Yeah, that's more like it!

Soon.

The difference is like night and day.

This is beautiful.

Look'n good

Bad idea for the dog safety-wise.

They can also saw the fish back together with the same knife.

That seems rather unsafe to wear clogs up stairs such as these.

Worn away one molecule at a time

If "Linda Rebel" was here she'd tell them to paint it.

It's not the rocky base, it's just the natural aggregate you find in concrete. You can actually roughly date concrete by the type of aggregate used. Older concrete tended to have larger aggregate stones. So concrete from the 60's and 70's had stones an inch or two in diameter primarily, while concrete from earlier had the same large stones, but also contained 'cinder'. Basically burned coal taken from railroads. In the 80's and 90's, aggregate sizes started getting smaller, with pea gravel being the typical size. This was due to costs, as the larger stones cost more to source. From the 00's to now, it's more a somewhat even mix of large and small stones, though you're also seeing plastics being added to the concrete.

Maybe they should start attaching posters using magnets.

Reminds me of the dog from Conjuring 2

When I was a kid, my parents would take me crabbing in Newport. It's the best place to catch dugness crab.

Bollards

And he STILL looks like he needs a laxative. 😂😂

What could these possibly be made of?? Rubber roofing?

Probably dragons.

I have climbed these stairs back in the 70s.

I'd be worried s/he would drop through the floor one day mid-haircut.

looks like people have been drifting cars up there

Woah! 💨

This would make a great garden planter!

Off topic I know, and also makes me look like a genuinely unhinged person but... This is one of my petty pet peeves: why do stores with two doors insist on keeping one locked? Real question because it has to have an answer. The number of times a week I grab a door handle and find it locked..... Why is this such a common thing?

This is called a "desire path" When smart people are in charge of the landscaping, they will wait for them to form and then pave them.

I’m surprised it didn’t get stolen long ago.

We have wear and tear on the steps of our local chateau/castle, but it was built in the 1100s, so it's not unexpected,

Plastic turf came into favor in the late 90's, early 00's. It was seen as a cheaper, safer alternative to wood chips, as if a child fell on it, there was less chance of the child being impaled by something hidden in the wood chips, like broken glass. With the plastic turf, they'd just need to sweep it up. Also, it CAN be repaired pretty easily. The turf is actually put down in strips. That second photo shows where it's been peeled up to make a repair. Whatever city this is, happens to just be lazy about doing it.

New gutters?

The corner of Mapunapuna and Mapunapuna.

Time to plant some more.

5?

Wheeeeeeeeeee!

Proof that we all like the window seat!

Year 2024 surely 😅

You can tell OP wears man’s jeans, a woman’s wouldn’t have a pocket you can fit a phone in. We need more pockets!

Cue. It's called a cue. And this is not through over-use, but simply a failure to replace the felt tip when it's worn out.

"Would you like some rust with the vanilla?"

I fidget with mine so they lose their hands, legs, and face pretty quickly

What happened there? A Nuclear attack?

Waddles will waddle no more

Already? It’s barely been operational.

That pavement still looks good for being 91 years old... Don't make em like they used to.

I spy a tip for the lathe
