skanky stuffed toys on a gate

24.06.10 skanky stuffed toys on a gate

why would you do that? these stuffed toys were water-logged and stank. maybe they think it makes their house look lovely, when in fact it makes their house look like a skanky dump.

this is in marrickville. there seem to be quite a few houses like this in the area. take a look at this dump i saw a while back.

oh dear, someone so should have said no to that last creamy cocktail

19.06.10 oh dear, someone so should have said no to that last creamy cocktail

another tragic end to a big night out. i can just imagine what went down in this little fire-escape alcove with all that sugar water, dead cigarettes and various other crap lying around. well the results are there for all to see. i can also see that the victim didn’t really eat that much….

sometimes it can be nice living in the city, but when you live in the playground of the city, the aftermath is never generally pretty.

perhaps i can sell this pic to ‘sprite’ for their next big campaign?

futile? $200 on the spot fine for littering

30.04.10 futile? $200 on the spot fine for littering

could be this be a warning with no teeth, a bark without bite? well, what says you?

i wonder if council has ever managed to re-coup the costs of sign manufacture and erection from on-the-spot-fines imposed?

i would think not.

will this blog attract more hits if i use the word erection a few more times, like dirty erection, erection in laneway, carpark erection, erection in park, erect pole? only time will tell. i’m sure there is even the carcass of a cock in that shopping trolley.

believe me, my stats tell me very strange things about what people search for on the internet, and i consider this site to be wholesome family fun. it is a very erect pole though. you’d have to be a stiffy to think otherwise.

maybe i should try writing about wholesome family erections? just an idea…. though again, do i really want that kind of man traffic coming in here? probably not.

motorways can be truely ugly places

12.04.10 motorways can be truely ugly places

look at what’s going on here. lamp posts, signage, mobile phone towers, big brother cameras, posts poles, columns, those dangly things that make noise when a too-high truck passes them, concrete and galvanised steel. what you don’t see in the photo is the black dust from exhaust fumes, millions, yes i am sure, millions of cigarette butts and piles of rubbish thrown out the windows of moving (and sometimes not moving) vehicles, like it’s someone else’s problem.

when are people going to realise that when they throw their crap onto the street, rather than into a bag, that yes sure, it will be someone else’s problem, but also a problem to themselves and their families? boggles the mind it does.

do you love your take-away coffees?

03.04.10 do you love your take away coffees?

seems at the end of the day at paddington markets, plenty of other people do too.

what fills up this bin more than anything is take-away coffee cups and plastic drink bottles. it’s one bin, on one day, and one which is emptied regularly.

it’s a little bit of a worry what we are doing to our planet, but hey, it’s convenient isn’t it?

under the bridge

18.7.09 under the bridge

When you have just bought yourself a new flat-screen TV, what do you do with your old cathode ray number?

Well, just dump it in the supermarket trolley you pushed 2 kms from the shops to your house and dump the TV into it and then push it under a bridge and leave it there, right.

Getting someone to collect your trolley is someone elses problem and job isn’t it? So why don’t they just deal with your old TV as well?

Everything in this picture is just so wrong. The TV probably works fine as well.
