Every street in my town has pot holes that would cripple a monster truck

[Orrex]

But my neighbor was fined for code violation because his rhubarb was overgrown.


Hmm...

1. Your neighbor is a threat to

humanity in general for this egregious violation and should be renditioned for questioning before being shipped off to The Hague.

BTW where is this overgrown patch? I haven't had a rhubarb pie in years.

2. Pot holes or vegetation

3. Pot Holes cost money to fix...

Code Violation fines give them money...

4. Get on city council

It is not as easy as it sounds to fix-

5. Well, the roads are miraculously well-kept in the "wealthier" area

Rather than having amazingly terrific roads in one small section of my small town and amazingly shitty roads in the rest, it might be nice to have "reasonably good" roads throughout. Or at least traversible roads throughout.

Also, in terms of resources and bureaucracy, fussing about somebody's rhubarb while doing nothing about actual issues simply makes the city council look petty, foolish and ineffective.

8. They complain the most

The rich fooks that is- I did my time to stop things like that happening. I worked with the engineer to come up with a 20 year streets plan. Oldest first, not loudest-

6. Why not grow rhubarb inside the pot holes? Or is there no sun light down there ?

[Orrex]

7. Now that's an idea

Might not be any easier to drive on those roads, but it would be far less unsightly than the cratered surface that have to negotiate at present.

9. That would be for your own protection! Overgrown rhubarb is KNOWN to be dangerous.

Wise up!

10. Yikes!

That was bluer than a Red Foxx skit.
