Humeur actuelle :  approuvé
Many of you enjoyed the little gem of a parking meter I found ON Melrose a few months back. I called it the BLING METER, here is a video to refresh your memory...

BLING METER

So here is a still of what it WAS.. Genious!

Here is a still of what it is now... Sad.


The most irritating thing about it, it that the City of Los Angeles Department of Transportation, used our tax dollors to REMOVE the top, and replace it with a new, un-blung top. Just a little bling remains near the bottom, as you can see..

My point:
HEY LADOT!
Why not repave some streets with OUR money??
Why not REPAINT and REPAVE the roads in the Beachwood area, known as HollywoodLand?? The roads are attrocious up there. Like earthquakes buckled the roads, and the were never fixed.
Why not fix all the millions of cavernous pot holes in the city?!

Get your priorities straight, or get out of the buisness.

Sometimes I am baffled by governments "give-a-shit factor" in stuff like this. Why on earth would they give a shit about something like this, rather than take care of more important things, like the safety of the roads!

Good grief.

It happened in under 7 months too!! SO FAST, if you consider how slow their asses are with things that matter..

My question is why in the world did they spend all that time and taxpayer money scraping the jewels off if they were going to leave some of them on the bottom? Did the city worker just get tired and give up? Strange!

They not only scraped off a portion, BUT replace a portion of the meter, with ENTIRELY NEW hardware... Which I am sure was at a premium..

It's wierd, cause they scratched off the top, but replaced this center "crown" shaped thing.. I am sure it was to repair it, but they should have left the bling! lol...

Do you know who I blame for this? Some bitch in Oklahoma and her heterosexual agenda! Bling has no place in her society. Did you know that societies who tolerated bling never lasted more than a decade?

Ok.. MAYBE.. those of us that live in other cities... should BLING up one of the parking meters in our perspective city.. (if we can without getting caugh) you know.. just to help beautify.. and then see what happens and maybe even record it and bring it to the attention of the city DOTs... hahhaaaa.. LOL..just an idea.. I mean there are painted cows and pigs all over our city and JEEZ.. we even have a 5 story TOOTH down by the Bay near the water front... Oh.. I know.. IT"S ART!!!

I totally LOVE the parking meter.. I'm such a bling queen.. Thanks for sharing.

And now it looks just as shitty as ever. Why couldn't they just leave it alone? It wasn't hurting anybody and some homeless person probably smiled everytime they walked by it. Boo!
