Dangers in a City
They are a huge hazard of walking in a city. Sometimes they’re just annoying, noisy, maybe even smelly. Other times, they sneak up on you almost silently. One second you think you’re safe, and then suddenly they’re rushing up on you, threatening life and limb.
You find yourself glancing over a shoulder, suspicious, even when you’re walking down the sidewalk in the middle of the day. A lot of times they just stay out all night on the street, not even finding shelter from the elements.
I’m talking, of course, about them. About cars.
Don’t Trust The Pretty Surface
Here’s one I saw at night, ominously painted with tentacles.
Concerned about the environment? Ha!
Here’s a pickup, with a pastoral scene, but no doubt ready to cut down an unsuspecting victim.
Wabi-Sabi is an ineffable concept of Japanese aesthetics based on imperfection and impermanence, but you can’t fool me — here it’s been degraded on a Subaru to read “Wabi-Subi” and what does that have to do with 666, the mark of the devil?
And here’s a puzzler – what does an anime character have to do with legendary Mexican comedian Cantinflas? The presence of both on a car hood can only be meant to confuse a victim before they meet their fate.
If you go to a big city, be on guard!
i am equal parts amused and offended by the bargain bin rally subi
Oh that’s great, I didn’t know it was a thing.
colin mcrae and his subi
pretty much legendary in rally
which means….still fairly unknown to anyone not into motorsports…rally doesnt get much coverage
I’m definitely wondering now what that car was doing around me. Rally racing would mostly involve getting stuck in traffic behind double parked delivery trucks.
going by the air scoop…i wouldnt worry too much….is a joke car
In my area we have so many kids w/ ridiculous modified subis. They make them so obnoxiously loud & race up and down the streets near us at sunset each night in the summer.
ive given up on telling people off for fart cans here
bigger exhaust = more power
many people believe that
its actually less power if you dont have the power to need that much exhaust to begin with
but then….. im dealing with idiots that loaded their fast car up with several hundred lbs of stereo
(edit) to quote chapman….simplify and add lightness
You live in the strangest city. All the public art, all the elaborately painted and decorated cars…We do not lack for creative freaks (in the best sense of the term) in my neighborhood but we have nothing like what you have.
